If you are working with the ECM in the TMS (button ECM in the Environment menu) and certain requirements are met, there is an additional function Determine accruals in the context menu of the Account sheet tab → Create accrual tab.

The rates for the provision can also be determined from the ECM.

In the Seafreight, you can determine accruals on the Create accruals tab in the Account sheet tab

Open the local menu with the right mouse key and select Determine accruals to start the search.

If unable to find rates, the application will issue a corresponding message and open a search mask.
