GMS Barge Operators: Fleet Management
Step-by-step guide to successfully adding a vessel.
By Marion Lasfargues
In short: As a barge operator, you can manage your fleet, add vessels, and delete them in RPIS.
All of these functions are available in the “Fleet Management” section.
Creating a vessel is necessary to plan your voyages and book stops in terminals.
Let's get started:
1
On the RPIS Platform, select the "Barge Operation" section.
2
Vessels can be added in the "Manage Fleet" section.
3
In the list of all vessels, click on "Add Vessel".
4
Enter the vessel details.
5
Optional: Assign captains to the vessel.
Captains can be assigned to vessels by users with the "Barge Dispatcher" role. This requires that these captains have already been added as team members.
Captains assigned to a vessel can only create, view, and edit voyages for that ship.
Captains assigned to the same vessel can view and edit voyages created by other
captains assigned to that vessel.
A captain can be assigned to multiple vessels.
Captains assigned to the same vessel can view and edit voyages created by other
captains assigned to that vessel.
A captain can be assigned to multiple vessels.
6
Assign the vessel's AIS signal.
Note: This step is necessary to reliably calculate ETA times.
7
Assign AIS.

Then add the vessel.
The vessel has been successfully added.
