Web-Based PC Interface - Users can access Terminal-View from any place in the world. The application can also send email alerts for events that occur within the system.

Customer Web Interface - Terminal-View allows shippers, agents, third party vendors and other customers into the application via the customer web interface. This interface provides functionality such as yard inventory views, real time vessel load/discharge operations, report writing and cargo tracking, along with visibility to vessels and vessel schedules.

Handheld Computer Interface - The user terminal can incorporate handheld data terminals to support gate operations (in/out), yard operations (physical inventory/locating), vessel operations (load/discharge), auto, Ro-Ro, equipment, and container inspections. Terminal-View allows these units to operate wirelessly even in ports where no wireless network infrastructure exists. Using both WiFi and GSM cellular technology, the units can operate in practically any port in the world.

EDI - The application uses generic, universal XML web services to interface between other systems. Whether Terminal-View is interfacing with accounting systems or back office systems, the data is exchanged in an industry standard, open architecture. This implementation enables Advent’s solution to seamlessly exchange data with almost any other system.
