Frequently Asked Questions

I have more than one DHL account number how do I set a default one?

If you have more than one DHL account number and you want one to be set as the default one just make sure you set the Sort weight of the one you want to have as default to the highest number.

For example: You have two DHL account numbers, account A and account B. If you wanted Account B to be the default you would set the sort order in the following way.

Account A sort weight = 1
Account B sort weight = 2
