How Do I Do The Dhl Test Requirements For Production?

[coldfission]

I applied for a DHL XML API account and they sent me a test account. I can use the test account, but I really want to use production in real production. They have a list of tests that you must run and 2 forms that you have to fill out to move your account to the "production" status. How did everyone else accomplish this task? I can't do the "Bill To" stuff, COD, or Hazardous Materials.

 

Certification testing for generating Rate Estimate/Request:

1. Rate request and XML response for Express Service (using Additional Protection and shipment type of Letter).

2. Rate request and XML response for Express Saturday Service.

3. Rate request and XML response for Saturday Delivery with a Shipment date that is not a Friday.

4. Rate request and XML response for an Express 10:30 A.M. Service.

5. Rate request and XML response for Second Day Service (using a weight over 20 pounds, Asset Protection, and Bill To Receiver).

6. Rate request and XML response for Ground Service (if applicable).

7. Rate request and XML response for HAZ (if applicable).

8. Rate request and XML response for COD shipment (if applicable)

9. Rate request and XML response with non-existent zip code (00001).

10. Rate request and XML response for a Letter with declared value of $1000.

11. Rate request and XML response for COD with Hazardous Materials.

12. Rate request and XML response for Asset Protection declared value of $100,000, and Dimensions of 45x56x100.

 

Certification testing for generating Rate Estimate/Request:

1. Rate request for Non Dutiable Shipments the Duty Payment Account Number can be the same as Sender Account Number with the Bill to 3rd Party Account Number correctly entered

2. Rate request and XML response for Express Saturday Service. (this is to be an error transaction?)

3. Rate request for Non Dutiable Shipments (the Customs value can be greater than 0)

4. Rate request for Express Saturday Service (Error transaction)

5. Rate request for UK country location, i.e. Scotland

6. Rate request and using the following features: Bill To 3rd Party, a Zip code override, and the Notification Message

7. Rate request for a Letter with an additional protection value of $1000. (Error transaction)

8. Rate request with non-existent zip code (00001) (Error transaction)

9. Rate request for a Package with an Customs declared value of $750,000, and Dimensions of 45x56x100 (Error transaction)
