Voyage Code Automation

Product impacted: Voyage Management

Video Demo


The Voyage Code generation has been enhanced to offer more flexibility and standardization. You can now use the 'fixture_date' as a new variable in your custom templates. The Voyage Code is also locked at creation , which means it will not change even if the fixture date is later modified, guaranteeing consistency in your records. This allows you to minimize the time it takes to set up a new voyage and ensure standardization across your organization.

Voyage Code Automation Details


Certain voyage details can be used to auto create a voyage code. These include 

  • your company
  • carrier
  • schedule editor
  • vessel
  • and now fixture date. 

The parameters must be separated from each other, with single space, / and - being the valid separators. Voyager has the flexibility to determine the number of characters to show in a string and the format of dates.  


An example of a complex voyage code setup would be: V-${owner}-${now[yy]}-${increment[3]}. Assuming the voyage owner to be called Voyager, the current year to be 2025 and the previous voyage having been voyage number 13, the next voyage would receive the code V-VOY-25-14.


Fixture Date

Fixture date will reflect at the voyage creation wizard, if the fixture date is not informed or not present at the wizard, it will result in TBD.

  • Examples: for the date of 24th of February of 2025

    FunctionResult
    ${fixture_date}25
    ${fixture_date[yy]}25
    ${fixture_date[yyyy]}2025
    ${fixture_date[dd mmm yyyy]}02 Feb 2025
    ${fixture_date[dd-mm-yy]}02-02-2025
    ${fixture_date[yy/mmm]}25/Feb
