New Feature: Add, edit and delete vessel and cargo positions

Automatic, Dynamic and up to date
I am glad to announce that we have just added the “Add new position” feature.

Easily add new Positions
This new feature is very useful if you should receive information through Instant Messenger, Telephone, Fax or Word of mouth about a cargo or vessel position.
Just use the “Add position” button at the top left of the position page, enter the vessel or cargo details and click Save.

- The new or updated position will be available instantly for everyone in your company.

This feature, along with the “Hide/Fixed” option which removed a position from the searches, are very useful in day to day work and will help you and your coworkers spend even less time reading e-mails.

Improved overview of position data
Even off market positions can be entered regardless of how you received the position. Off market as well as all other positions entered into the system are only visible from within your own company! Consider that a vessel going from the Persian Gulf to the Mediterranean Sea is closed, you just mark the Vessel as fixed, allowing the Brokers who are looking at Med, to see when they can expect the vessel to be open. Instantly, of course.

Using “Fixed”, and the new “Add position” gives you a automatic, dynamic and up to date position list, resulting in a far better overview of the market, and giving you an edge over the competition.

Vessel Positions
When adding a vessel, just type in the name of the vessel, and use our auto complete feature to help you find the right vessel.

- It even searches previous names of a vessel, just in case.

Cargo Positions
Cargo positions can been added just as easily, with auto complete for common types of cargo.

New Feature: Mark vessels as employed

Mark a vessel as Employed/Fixed

The latest addition to our system is the possibility to mark a vessel as “Employed/Fixed”. The idea is that if you have heard by mail, phone, instant message or another way, that a vessel is employed, and would like to remove it from the list, all you need to do, is just to click the “Hide/Fixed”-button after opening a position.

It will then automatically change to fixed, and the page will display who marked it as such.

Note: Information is only saved pr. company. No other companies, competitors etc. will be able to see that someone from your company knows that this vessel is Employed. This is for your eyes only.

The employed vessels will automatically be filtered from your results. But you do have the option to display they if you would like to see them.

Of course, it is also possible to remove the marking, in case it was incorrect for some reason.

New feature: Search on Cranes and Grabs

Just another quick update to let you know that we have been hard at work for the last few weeks.
We finished the first version of our improved vessel database, which introduces Cranes and Grabs.

Use the Geared search option under Advanced Vessel Search to show only geared vessels in your searches.

The new information can be seen in the “Full” position list view, along with the improved type definition of vessels.

As always, it’s possible to click the small plus-sign, and view even more information, without reading a single e-mail.

CPHSE Integration with Reinhardt Software’s System 5

We are proud to announce our technology’s integration with Reinhardt Software’s System 5

With Skybox, CPHSE has developed the first fully automated system to categorize chartering mails. The system can determine if a mail contains a vessel position, a cargo order or any other information. It even reads out the specific positions and orders letting you search within this information in Skybox.

„System 5“, the complete “Messaging and Shipping” solution by Reinhardt Software (including Vessels Database, Position List, Voyage Estimator, Laytime Calculation and more), now directly allows you to utilize the Skybox results.

Seamless Integration

By using the System 5 message rules, you simply define which messages are to be checked by Skybox. The returned result can be used in various ways within System 5.

As an example, a user could set up Message Journals with “Positions Far East” or “Cargos Atlantic”.  Or a split into three journals (“Position Emails”, “Cargo Emails” and “the Rest”) would be possible.

In addition, the results can be used for much easier and simple updating of the System 5 Vessels Database.

Alternatively, you can of course always access the same results within the web based Skybox Application, anytime from anywhere.

For any further information on System 5 go here: http://www.reinhardt-software.de/

CPHSE launches Customer Mailreview

From today, customers can review their own messages. This makes sure that all mails, even those that the system marks as not able to analyse, will now become available in the position searches for the entire company, once reviewed by a member of your staff.

General Search with Advanced Options

Skybox has many functions, but the most essential is being able to search within moments what you need. And finding what you are looking for couldn’t be easier with Skybox. Following tutorial below, you will learn how to use General Search from the Inbox tab most efficiently.
