Claim Details

The Claim invoice is used to record compensation claims for losses, damages, or expenses that one party seeks to recover from another.

Unlike a Miscellaneous Invoice, a claim invoice contains a dedicated ‘Reclaimed Accruals’ section that links the claim to the original accrual on which it is based.

• The claim amount is linked to a specific accrual.

• One or more claim entries may be added.

• The final invoice amount is calculated automatically.

Key Features

1. The Claim Invoice is used to record compensation claims related to previously issued accruals.

2. The detailed view includes the following sections:

   • Reclaimed Accruals — Accruals included in the claim and corresponding claim amounts;

   • Additional Expenses — Additional costs associated with the claim invoice.

3. The total invoice amount is calculated as:

   $Claim Amounts + Additional Expenses$

Reclaimed Accruals

The ‘Reclaimed Accruals’ section contains accruals for which compensation is being claimed.

Records are added using the

Add Claim

action.

When adding a claim, a separate window opens with the following fields:

• Accrual Type: Source accrual on which the claim is based.

  • Available accruals are filtered by the same Vessel and Voyage as the claim invoice.

  • Accruals already included in other claim invoices are excluded from the selection.

• Claim Amount: Amount to be reclaimed from the selected accrual.

After saving, the selected accrual is added to the ‘Reclaimed Accruals’ list.

Additional Expenses

The ‘Additional Expenses’ section functions the same way as in other invoice types and is used to record any additional costs associated with the claim invoice.
