Who can do this: Role level 300 or higher and the terminal permission.

Terminals are the ports, rail and barge terminals where containers are picked up and delivered. A terminal record holds its official codes, its address or addresses and rules per transport mode, such as whether reefers or dangerous goods are accepted.

  2. Choose Terminals. The list shows each terminal's Name, EAN and last change.
  3. Use the search field to find a terminal.

Create a terminal

  1. Click + Create terminal.
  2. Enter the Name.
  3. Under Select transportation methods, choose the transport modes the terminal handles.
  4. Enter the EAN, BICS Code, Quay name and SMDG Code. All of these are required.
  5. Search for the terminal's address in Enter location. You can add more than one location.
  6. Under Terminal Settings, click + Add terminal setting for each transport mode you want to set rules for.
  7. Click Save.

Terminal settings per transport mode

Each terminal setting starts with Select transportation method, followed by switches:

  • load: the terminal loads for this mode.
  • Seal Number Allowed
  • Reefer Allowed: refrigerated containers are accepted.
  • Gross Weight Allowed
  • Out of gauge allowed: oversized containers are accepted.
