HOW TO ACCESS INTTRA’S PLATFORM
Welcome to INTTRA’s global e-commerce platform
Today, INTTRA’s platform is more relevant to ocean shippers than ever before. Over 90% of
shippers use more than one carrier to meet their global container shipment needs. This
requires communicating with different carrier systems. INTTRA makes this fast and easy by
offering an integrated platform with one simple connection to the world’s largest network of
ocean carriers.
How to access the INTTRA platform
Accessing the INTTRA platform is easy
INTTRA LinkTM
INTTRA Link is an integration service that offers customers with a high volume of shipping transactions
the option of using XML or EDI to link their systems with carriers. Customers integrate once to INTTRA
to take advantage of the multiple XML and EDI connections between the INTTRA platform and its
carrier partners – saving money and time in managing and maintaining multiple high speed direct
connections.
INTTRA DesktopTM
INTTRA’s Desktop solution provides the fastest and simplest way to make a booking or shipping
instruction. A simple installation of INTTRA’s software enables you to create shipping documents
and bookings offline and then send them to your carrier via email or web services. Features include:
a standard process to use, create, save and edit templates, and an easier way to archive and find
information. Desktop also has built-in forms for compliance with US Customs security, formats for
B/L viewing and automated confirmations. INTTRA Desktop is available in multiple languages and
requires a PC with email or Internet connection.
INTTRA ActTM
INTTRA’s online application offers a simple and secure web based connection to enable you to manage
a wide range of shipment processes. You can negotiate cargo services, review up to the minute sailing
schedules, book cargo, submit shipping instructions, review Bill of Lading drafts, track and trace cargo
and create standardized reports for your shipments. You can also choose to share your booking,
shipping instructions, or Bill of Lading data with selected shipping partners.
Flexible Solutions
INTTRA’s customers and their shipping partners can communicate and share
documentation by using any combination of I-Link, I-Act and I-Desktop.
Share information seamlessly with your shipping partners
Customers can choose any combination of channel solutions to connect to their shipping partners.
Customers and their shipping partners can choose from any of the following: I-Desktop to work
offline, I-Act to work online at www.inttra.com, or I-Link for an integrated solution using XML or
EDI connections – ideal for processing high volume shipping transactions. All available platform
solutions can share information seamlessly with our multi-carrier network regardless of the type of
access used, enabling information to be shared among all parties.
INTTRA’s channel solutions enable easier collaboration and greater visibility
Example of a typical solution
INTTRA’s platform is designed to work seamlessly across different access channels. In this example
the shipper submits a booking via the web (using I-Act) and elects to receive a confirmation by
email. The forwarder also receives notification of the booking by email, elects to issue a Shipping
Instruction via its I-Link connection and receive the Bill of Lading via the web(I-Act). The Consignee
receives email notification of the booking confirmation, tracks the shipment via the web (I-Act)
and requests reports to monitor the shipments progress via the web (I-Act).
