Use Marine ready-made with BSU One
The core (accounts, stock, invoicing, pre-accounting, finance) comes together with Marine. In a call we walk through the shipyard and marina flow with your own example.
Ask for a Marine callFrom vessel to collection, from marina to invoice: one chain of records.
For shipyard and vessel repair projects and marina berth operations: vessel card, project, order, change order, progress claim, invoice and collection in the same record; tax and tariff values come from dated parameters, not code.
Marine is an add-on that runs on top of the BSU One core.
Let us connect it to your system
Today Marine runs on the BSU One core. We do not offer a ready-made connection to your existing system; we hold a conversation and, with a first project, set up the transfer of accounts, invoices and accounting vouchers together.
Request an integration callScope and timing are settled in the call; a written offer follows the conversation.

Process flow from vessel card to collection
Press a step to see what is recorded, who approves and what the system checks.
1. Vessel card
- What is recorded
- Vessel name, type, IMO or registration number and flag; length, beam and draft.
- Who approves
- No separate approval step; the record is made by a user with Add / Edit permission.
- Which check
- IMO is mandatory for commercial ships; for yachts and small boats without an IMO, a registration number and flag are required. The same IMO or the same registration cannot be created twice.
2. Shipyard project
- What is recorded
- Repair, dock maintenance or refit project: yard, customer, currency, schedule and budget lines.
- Who approves
- Budget lines are approved by a user with approval permission.
- Which check
- Budget and actual cost are compared; budget overruns and delayed projects show on the portfolio board.
3. Main order
- What is recorded
- Lines (quantity, unit, unit price or lump sum), customer, currency and total.
- Who approves
- Submit, then Approve. A second person is not required at this step; Approve permission is.
- Which check
- An approved order is not edited directly; changes are made with a change order.
4. Change order
- What is recorded
- Extra work linked to the main order: reason and lines; optionally drawn from a PC Sum allowance.
- Who approves
- Submit, then Approve (user with Approve permission).
- Which check
- Once approved, the contract value changes by the order; extra work is tracked with the main order.
5. Progress claim
- What is recorded
- Contract terms (multi-year work, advance, retention, rounding, VAT scenario), period progress record and evidence / minutes number.
- Who approves
- Submit, Technical review, Approve (Freeze), Finance approval. Four eyes: the person who entered progress cannot freeze or give finance approval; the person who froze cannot give finance approval.
- Which check
- The order does not open for claims until the terms are entered. The calculation reads dated official parameter rows; if a required value is missing, it stops and shows the reason.
6. Invoice
- What is recorded
- Invoice from the approved claim: invoice date, amounts and VAT (net, rate, amount, gross).
- Who approves
- A claim with finance approval is invoiced; invoice approval depends on permission.
- Which check
- No official output is produced for a claim waiting for legal review. A second invoice is not issued from the same claim.
7. Collection
- What is recorded
- Collection date, cash or bank account and amount.
- Who approves
- Collection entry is made with Add permission.
- Which check
- Collection is linked to the cash / bank and account as in the core.
Marina
Berths: occupancy, conflicts and length / beam check
Enter your boat’s length, beam and dates; see which berth in the sample marina is suitable, occupied or too small. Data is illustrative.
- Conflict blockThe same berth cannot be booked twice for the same dates; the system says “occupied on the selected dates”. A cancelled booking frees the berth.
- Length / beam checkIf the boat is longer or wider than the berth allows, the booking is refused and the message states both values. “Find berth” lists suitable berths.
- Seasonal and daily tariffTariffs are dated rows per metre, by period type (daily / seasonal) and length band; the person who enters a row cannot confirm it, and no fee is calculated from an unconfirmed row.
- Check-in / check-outReserved → In berth → Completed transitions are recorded with date and time.
Invoice draft from the contract
If a booking spans two tariff periods, the nights are split by period and each period becomes its own line in the invoice draft. Values below are illustrative; VAT comes from the dated parameter row.
| Night range | Nights | Unit (EUR/m) | Amount (EUR) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 29.11 – 01.12 | 2 | 100 | 2,200.00 |
| 01.12 – 03.12 | 2 | 200 | 4,400.00 |
| Total excl. VAT | 6,600.00 | ||
Example: boat length 11.0 m. A contract that has been invoiced is not invoiced twice and cannot be cancelled; a new tariff period added later does not change an issued invoice.
Regulation
Rates live in dated parameters, not in code
Marine calculations read VAT, withholding and berth fees from dated official rows in the Parameter Center, not from constants in code. We do not print rates on this page: rates change, and the value comes from the record.
- Dated official parameter row
- Every row has an effective start, end, source and version number. A new period opens with a new row and closes the old one.
- Four-eyes publication
- Draft → Send for review → Verify → Publish. No legal value goes live on one person’s decision; the person who opens, verifies and publishes the row are different.
- Snapshot on the record
- A claim’s calculation is stored with the rule version it used; a new period opened later does not change the old calculation.
- No value, the system stops (fail-closed)
- If a required legal value has not been entered, the system does not guess; the claim stops with “legal review required for official output” and says what is missing.
Türkiye scenarios covered (by name)
- Sea-going vessel construction / repair VAT exemptionClaim VAT scenario for domestic shipyard work under VAT Law article 13/a.
- Free zone: services, goods and exportSeparate VAT scenarios for services inside a free zone, goods delivered inside a free zone and export from a free zone; exemption code and tax evidence kept with the record.
- Multi-year shipbuilding / repair claim withholdingClaim withholding for ship construction and repair work spanning more than one calendar year; if the rule row is not published, the calculation stops.
If no published rule exists in that country for a scenario, the system produces no value and stops the calculation. This page is not legal or financial advice.
Currency

Frequently asked questions
Is Marine sold on its own?
No. Marine is an add-on that runs on top of the BSU One core; accounts, stock, invoicing and finance come from the core.
I use another ERP; can you connect Marine to it?
We have no ready-made connection today. We hold a conversation and, with a first project, set up the transfer of accounts, invoices and accounting vouchers together; scope and timing are settled in the call.
Are tax rates fixed in the system?
No. VAT and withholding values are read from dated parameter rows, not code. If a value is missing, the system does not guess; it stops the calculation.
Can one person change and publish a rule row?
No. A row goes live after review and approval by different people (four eyes). A published row is dated; a new period opens with a new row.
Is marina operation in scope?
Yes. Marina, pier, berth, booking, check-in / check-out, tariff and invoice draft screens come with Marine.
Which currencies does it work with?
A contract can be in EUR, USD or GBP. On a progress claim, the rate type is chosen at the finance approval stage.
Can I see it live?
You can ask for a call; we show the Marine flow with your own example. Screenshots will be added to the page separately.
Is it used for construction work outside the shipyard?
Construction has its own solution; the progress claim foundation is shared by both.
Let us show you Marine with your own example.
If you have no ERP, ask about using it ready-made; if you have one, ask for an integration call. A written offer follows the conversation.
