  3. Assignor (Account Owner) will be notified on assignee's action (or non-action).
  4. Pickup booking request will only be sent to DHL upon shipment completion by the assignee (Shipper).
  5. Visibility on all assigned shipments under Manage My Shipment (MMS).

(a) Should the assignee complete the shipment as a registered MyDHL+ user?
