Standby crew report
This report lists seafarers who signed off your vessels and can return for the next contract. For each seafarer, it shows where and when they last worked, when they are available again, and whether they are already planned for the next vessel. Open it from Reports → Standby crew report.
Use the report to keep track of your standby crew. You can also export it and send it to a ship owner or manager, for example every week or every month.
Who is in the report
The report has one row for each seafarer.
- Last service. The report uses the seafarer's last completed sea service on one of your vessels, which is the one with the latest sign-off date. Seafarers who have no completed sea service on your vessels are not shown.
- Seafarers on board. Seafarers who are on board any vessel now are not shown.
- Planned and joining seafarers. Seafarers with a Planning or Joining sea service are shown. The Next Vessel columns show their next assignment.
- Deleted seafarers are not shown.
Filters
- Vessel - One or more of your vessels. The report shows seafarers whose last service was on a selected vessel;
- Ship manager - One or more ship managers. The report shows seafarers whose last vessel has a selected manager;
- Sign-off period - The start date, the end date, or both. The report shows seafarers who signed off their last vessel within this period. Both dates are included;
All filters apply to the last service only. For example, a seafarer who worked on vessel A and then on vessel B is not shown when you filter by vessel A.
If you select both vessels and managers, the report shows only seafarers who match both filters. If you set no filters, the report shows the standby crew of your whole company (all your vessels).
Report table

Keeping the report up to date
The report is only as accurate as the data in the seafarer profiles. After a seafarer signs off:
- Contact the seafarer and ask when they can return.
- Set the Available from date in the seafarer's profile. The report shows this date in the Readiness column.
- When the seafarer agrees to return, plan them for the next vessel in Planning. The report then shows the vessel in the Next Vessel column.
