TMS7's Tile Layout View for Terminal Operators & Business/Back-Office Users

Over the last several years, Toptech's powerful Terminal Automation System, TMS7, has been shown to increase user speed and efficiency. One of the features that has endured as a customer favorite for increased efficiency has been the tile layout view. Recently, Mustali Dalal, Director of Software Products & Services, provided a demonstration of the tile layout feature and how it is used to access multiple sources of information at one time.

The tile layout view primarily benefits terminal operators and business/back-office users. It is particularly useful when someone wants to compare multiple records at the same time instead of switching between various tabs. Of course, users can still open multiple TMS7 tabs, but the tile layout view provides a more convenient way of having lots of information on one screen.

As with the other screens in TMS7, tile layout can be accessed through a quick search using the search bar or by using the menu bar. Once selected, the last saved layout will be displayed. If a layout has not yet been saved, it will populate a default layout of four home screen windows. The user can then choose between 2-5 tiles and decide which screen each tile will display. The entire menu is available within each tile, so there are no restrictions on what screens are viewable. User also have the option of changing the scale. Depending on the size of the monitor, users may choose to zoom in or out so the data can be optimally viewed no matter the workstation configuration.
