Where do I find my DHL credentials for RepairCMS?

In short

To connect RepairCMS with DHL you need two things from your DHL Business Customer Portal (GKP): a dedicated System User and your 14-digit billing numbers. This guide shows where to find both and how to create the System User securely.

Step 1: Create the System User #

Requirement

For security reasons, never use your normal DHL login for RepairCMS. Always create a dedicated System User.

  1. Log into your DHL Business Customer Portal.
  2. Click Administration in the top menu and select Manage Users (or click your name in the top right corner, then Users).
  3. Click the Create new user button.
  4. In the form, under user type, select System User (Systembenutzer). This step is essential.
  5. Assign a name (e.g. repaircms_system) and a password. Save both values and enter them into RepairCMS.

Step 2: Find the 14-digit billing numbers #

So DHL knows which contract to bill the labels to, you need your billing numbers. Each consists of your 10-digit customer number (EKP) plus 4 digits.

  1. In the DHL portal, click Contract Data in the top menu (or My Account, then Contract Data).
  2. Go to the Contract Items tab.
  3. You will see a list of all your active DHL products. For the standard billing number, look for DHL Paket (V01PAK) and copy the full 14-digit number.

Tip

Keep your credentials handy: Store the System User name, its password and your billing numbers together. You enter all of them once in the DHL integration settings in RepairCMS.
