I am a new user, what should I do?

To start using the Client Area you will need to self-register with your email address by entering your assigned client account. Self-registration allows you to enter your account in two ways:

• Enter the 8-digit account and the province field will autocomplete.
• Enter up to 6 digits of the account and choose the province to which it belongs.

I have entered the account but I want to change it after the field has been locked.

Log out by clicking on the icon with three horizontal lines at the top right of the screen, and you will be able to start the self-registration process with another account.

Why do you ask me for the company's VAT number in order to finalise the registration?

You are the first registered user, and by default you will automatically be assigned the administrator profile of that CIF. You will need to enter the account VAT verification code as the following model:

A00000000B

Where ,

A = initial letter (if any)

00000000 = 8 digits. If your CIF has less than 8 digits, please complete it including zeros.

B = final letter (if any)

Do not include spaces between characters.

From that moment on, you can add as many accounts associated to that VAT number as you wish. In addition, you can manage permissions for other users who self-register. In case you wish to view and manage shipments from other CIF accounts, you will need to contact your DHL manager for activation.

When I registered, I got a warning that there is already an administrator for that account. What does this mean?

A user associated with that account already exists and, as an account administrator, you must approve your registration request. Once you have handled your request, we will send you a welcome email informing you of the permissions that your administrator has enabled you. If the administrator does not validate your request, you will receive a weekly email reminder within a period of one month from the registration request.

I have blocked my username by mistake, how do I get it back?

You have made more than ten unsuccessful login attempts in a single session. You will be sent an email with a token that allows you to unlock your password.

I don't get the welcome email.

There could be several reasons for this: the email has gone to the Spam folder, your administrator has not yet approved your request and you have to wait for your request to be accepted, or the email you entered is invalid, in which case you should contact your DHL Parcel manager.

I have forgotten / my password has expired.

Your password is valid for six months. In case you have forgotten it, you can always retrieve it.

I have just registered and when I log in I can't see my details.

Depending on the volume of data in your account, the system needs a time for your upgrade. It is recommended in this case to wait 30 minutes and re-enter this time.

I want to delete a user and I can't.

Users can only be deleted by the administrator. If you want to delete or change an administrator user, you should contact your sales manager for that change.

I see the linked accounts but I can't add any new ones.

Only the administrator user can add accounts from the same CIF. You can request permission directly from your profile and he/she will have to approve your request. Once your request has been processed, we will send you a confirmation email.

How can I customise and configure my views?

In your first access to the customer area, you will see the default view for DHL Parcel. However, this view is dynamic and this means you can move, delete, and add fields based on your preferences. There are two ways to do this:

1-Place the cursor over the name of the corresponding field, click (you will see that the field in question is highlighted with a gray shading) and, without releasing the mouse button, move it to the location you are interested in. Click on one of the arrows to sort ascending or descending and the reverse arrow will disappear. Click again and get the reverse order. A third click resets the initial order. To delete a field, click the red x.

2- Use the icon with the shape of a wheel indicating Configuration on the right-hand side of the field bar. You will find this icon under Shipment Tracking, Shipment Management, Pickup and e-Billing.
