DHL Same Day International Web Agent Training Manual

•

Overview

Purpose

The purpose of providing our partners with the Web Agent tool is to streamline our processes and to allow our suppliers to provide milestone updates via the web to eliminate unnecessary email communication. In addition, this tool will be used to upload and download documents related to each shipment, making the exchanging of documents more efficient and accessible to all.

•

Current Process

Currently we rely on email communication to advise milestones including when a shipment is cleared, booking details, delivery details, etc.

•

Future Process

DHL Same Day suppliers will have the ability to update the milestones of individual shipments with specific details which will take the place of most email updates.

•

No Change

Should the supplier encounter an issue with a shipment, email communication as well as verbal communication will not cease with DHL Same Day. For questions related to jobs/web agent/transportation, contact Sameday Dispatch/QCC 1 + 800-225-8293 1 +703-433-2820 [email protected]
