In short

How do I get an automatic weekly demurrage exposure report from PortPro?

Every Monday, WebRun opens PortPro, identifies all import containers accruing demurrage, calculates the estimated charge using the rate schedule in PortPro, and writes a Google Sheets report grouped by steamship line so your accounting team reconciles exposure before invoices arrive.

  • Demurrage exposure known each Monday, not when the invoice arrives
  • Charges grouped by steamship line for faster reconciliation
  • No container accruing demurrage goes unnoticed through the week

Questions, answered

How accurate is the estimated demurrage charge?

The estimate uses the rate schedule recorded in PortPro. Actual invoiced amounts may vary if the steamship line applies a different tariff, so WebRun marks estimates as provisional for your team to confirm.

Will it dispute demurrage charges with the steamship line?

No. WebRun produces an internal exposure report only. Any dispute letter or claim communication is drafted for your review before it is sent to the steamship line.

Can it track demurrage across multiple ports?

Yes. The report covers all import containers in PortPro regardless of the port of discharge, so your full demurrage exposure across all terminals appears in one sheet.
