DHL Express shipment tracking form with email notice
A public form that checks the status of a DHL Express shipment and emails the customer the latest movement and the estimated date.
Everything is created inactive in a new folder of your account. Nothing runs until you activate it, and you can undo it for 24 hours.
What it does
Checks the status of any DHL Express shipment from its tracking number and turns it into a clear state (prepared, in transit, out for delivery, delivered or incident). The customer receives an email with the latest movement, location, estimated delivery date and tracking link, and the person filling in the form sees an instant confirmation.
What you need: DHL Express credentials and a mail account (SMTP or Gmail) to send the email.
How to use it: install the template, connect DHL Express and the email, publish the form and you are done.
