IMOS - Cargo Itinerary Allocation

Home > Financials > Cargo Itinerary Allocation

Configuration flag CFGEnableActInvDetProrationByItin must be enabled, and you must have an interface license.

For reporting purposes, Cargo Itinerary Allocation enables you to allocate voyage invoice line items to specific ports in the cargo itinerary.

On a Transaction Data Entry or Journal Entry that is not yet posted, right-click an Invoice Details line and then click Cargo Itinerary Allocation.
By default:
- Expenses are allocated to Load ports, and revenues are allocated to Discharge ports.
  Note: For Vessel Daily Cost and Voyage Bunker Cost journal entries, all detail line items are expenses.
- If the vendor or customer on a detail line item matches any Counterparty on the Cargo Itinerary Allocation form, only allocation line items corresponding to that counterparty are selected.
For each row to which you want to allocate the invoice line item, either:
- Edit its Alloc %. The edited value appears blue, and the row is selected.
- Select its S check box. Allocation % automatically calculates; if BL/Disch Qty is not entered, CP Qty is used: Alloc % = BL/Disch Qty ÷ Total Quantity
The Amount allocated to each row populates with the prorated amount: Amount = Invoice Details Line Item Amount × Alloc %
- When the invoice is a Freight Invoice (Source Code FINV):
  - If there is a single discharge port, 100% of each line item amount is allocated to the discharge port for its associated Cargo.
  - If there are multiple discharge ports for a specific Cargo tied to a specific invoice line item, then the line item amount is prorated between the discharge ports. Proration is done by the discharge quantity: The BL Qty from Cargo Handling is used when it exists and, if it does not exist, then the nominated Cargo Qty is used.
- When the invoice is a Relet Invoice (Source Code RINV) and the voyage type is RELT:
  - If there is only one discharge port, then 100% of the line item amount is allocated to the discharge port for the linked Cargo.
  - If there are multiple discharge ports, then the allocation of the line item is prorated between the discharging ports. Proration is done by the discharge quantity: The BL Qty from Cargo Handling is used when it exists and, if it does not exist, then the nominated Cargo Qty is used.
Do one of the following:
- Click OK to apply a specific detail line’s allocations.
- Click OK Apply to All to apply selected percentage values for a given detail line to all other lines in the invoice.

After an invoice is posted, its Cargo Itinerary Allocation cannot be changed.

Related Configuration Flags

Name/Flag	Description
Enable Invoice Det Proration by Itinerary CFGEnableActInvDetProrationByItin	When enabled, turns on functionality in the system to allocate voyage related invoice detail amounts to related cargo itinerary line items, prorated by quantity. This includes a new Cargo Itinerary Allocation form, accessible from the Transaction Data Entry and Journal Entry forms.
Charterer View CFGChartererView	Uses the Charterer's view instead of the standard Cargo form. When enabled: When a voyage is scheduled using Cargo as the source, the Opr Type on the Create New Voyage form defaults according to the Counterparty on the Cargo contract. If the Counterparty is an Owner, the Opr Type is SPOT, otherwise it is TCOV or OVOV depending on the Ownership field on the vessel. Opr Type can be changed, and if the selected type is incompatible with the Cargo counterparty, the Counterparty column in the Voyage Manager Cargoes grid is cleared. All noncoload Cargoes in a voyage synchronize to have the same CP Date and CP Terms Details form. A Supplier/Rcvr column appears on the Cargo Booking and VC In Booking forms.
Enable Cargo Handling Trade No CFGEnableCargoHandlingTradeNo	Note: CFGEnableMultiGrade must also be enabled. Y = If multigrade cargoes are enabled, adds a Trade No. column to the Estimate Itinerary Cargo tab, Voyage Fixture, Voyage Manager, Cargo Itinerary/Options tab, and (when config flag CFGEnableActInvDetProrationByItin is enabled) Cargo Itinerary Allocation form. Additionally, if cargo transfers are enabled, the column is added to the Transfers tab. This is a free-text field, where users can enter identifiers for a trade associated with the given cargo lifting. R = All the functionality of the Y setting is enabled, except that the Trade No. column is read-only.
Cargo Handling Trade No Title CFGCargoHandlingTradeNoTitle	Provides an override for the column title of the Trade No. column, which is enabled with CFGEnableCargoHandlingTradeNo. Leaving the setting blank causes the column title to remain Trade No.
Default Invoice Itinerary Alloc to Disc CFGDefaultActInvItinAllocToDisc	When enabled alongside CFGEnableActInvDetProrationByItin, the Cargo Itinerary Allocation will default all transactions to the Discharge Ports.
Apply Cargo Itinerary Allocation % to all invoice detail lines CFGEnableActInvDetProrationByItin	When enabled, you can apply selected percentage values for a given detail line to all other lines in the invoice by clicking the “OK (Apply to All)” button within the Details grid on the Financials Invoice form.
