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 US
- GLS US User Name

- GLS US Account Number
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 US carrier.

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.
