Overview

This document outlines the process to connect your GLS Canada (formerly Dicom) account to ShipperHQ to obtain live rates associated with your GLS Canada account.

GLS US
This document covers connecting your GLS Canada account to ShipperHQ. For information on connecting GLS US (formerly GSO or Golden State Overnight) to your ShipperHQ account, see our GLS US documentation.

Requirements

Before you begin, please ensure you have the following:

  • Your GLS Canada billing account number
  • Your GLS Canada User Name
  • Your GLS Canada Password
  • A Canadian Shipping Origin/Warehouse
GLS Canada Account Required
If you don’t have an account with GLS Canada you will need to set up an account with GLS Canada before installing in ShipperHQ.

Adding GLS Canada

Now that you have your credentials ready, use the steps below to set up GLS Canada in ShipperHQ.

1. Log into your ShipperHQ account & navigate to the Carriers link on the left navigation menu. 

2. Click + New to add a new carrier

3. Choose the Live Rate Carrier option

4. Use the Search Carriers option to search for GLS Canada or scroll down to find GLS Canada from the list of available carriers

5. Click to continue in connecting your carrier account to ShipperHQ. 

Note, you can select the Skip & Enter Later option, but the StarTrack live rates are not enabled until these credentials are entered.

You are also reminded to add your credentials if you choose to skip the validation process. This validation is necessary for ShipperHQ to access your shipping account and rates.

Steps to Validate This Carrier

1. Enter the following credentials provided by GLS Canada

  • GLS Canada User Name
  • GLS Canada Password
  • GLS Canada Billing Account Number
  • GLS Canada Payment Type

2. Once these details have been entered, blick the Validate button to complete the validation process.

If validation is successful, click the toggle button to enable the GLS Canada carrier.

If validation fails, please Contact ShipperHQ Support for further assistance, or review what has been entered for accuracy & attempt to enter your credentials once more.

3. Click the Configure This Carrier button if the validation process was successful.

4. Edit any settings for this carrier then click Save to complete the setup.

5. Your GLS Canada carrier is now enabled and ready for configuration.

Troubleshooting

Your carrier can be installed and configured, but not validated. Successful validation depends on the accurate entry of the account information required by each carrier. If you do not have the correct information you will not be able to validate your carrier and receive live rates.
