  4. Multiple Pickup Addresses

    If you have multiple pickup addresses in one account or several accounts, you can log in and switch to another address or account without logging out first. If you have multiple users, you can limit the visible addresses/accounts for a specific user.


  5. Shipment Overview

    DPD Shipper Central only contains shipments created in DPD Shipper Central. This means that it does not contain an overview of the shipments created with other DPD Tools like DPD Shipper Webservice or DPD Shipper Local. To follow up on your delivery performance and get a tracking overview of all your DPD Shipper shipments, you can use DPD Insights.

  6. Expectations/Warning

    DPD Shipper Offline is a high maintenance tool which requires knowledge and responsibility from customer end. Updates, settings, firewalls etc. will keep on requiring attention from your end. Business continuity does not rely solely on DPD IT Support only (which is available on business hours).
