Every voyage generates port charges across multiple ports, vendor invoices from dozens of service providers, and disbursement accounts that need to reconcile before the books close. Base connects every port call cost to the voyage record, so you see total voyage spend as it happens, not after the last FDA arrives three weeks late.
Build proforma estimates and close final accounts across every port in the voyage rotation.
OCR captures vendor invoices from every port, matches to charge lines, and routes for approval.
Handle port charges in local currency while reporting voyage costs in your base currency.
Invoice your principals per voyage or per port call. Every charge carries the voyage reference.
Match vendor payments to invoices across all rotation stops. Flag unmatched and overdue items.

Base connects to your VMS. Port call costs, vendor invoices, and disbursement accounting flow from Base into your voyage P&L. Base handles the port-side financial detail. Your VMS handles voyage planning and chartering.
That is exactly the problem Base solves. Instead of waiting for FDAs from each port agent, your agents use Base to track charges as they happen. You see voyage cost accumulating across the rotation, not after the fact.
Every charge in Base carries the voyage reference, vessel, port, and principal. Report total voyage cost by any dimension. Export or sync to your accounting system with the voyage tag attached.
Bring a recent multi-port voyage. We will show you how port call charges from each stop roll up into a voyage-level financial view, how vendor invoices attach to charge lines, and how the accounting sync posts everything with the voyage reference.
“We used to wait weeks for FDAs from every port before we could see total voyage cost. Now we see it building as the vessel moves.”
