Address book

Create, manage, import and export recipients easily.

  1. Managing recipients

    To manage your recipients, go to “Recipients” in the left pane.

    In the following screen you have a number of options:

    (1) Main options

    • List view
    • Grid display
    • Create a new recipient
    • Import recipients
    • Export recipients
    • Delete all recipients. Please note this button will delete every single one of your recipients from your address book! There is no way to recover them once deleted. We therefore recommend taking periodical back-ups (see point 4 here below)

     

    (2) Quick actions

    • Edit recipient
    • Create shipment for this recipient
    • Remove the recipient. Please note this will only delete this specific recipient. There is no way to recover it once deleted.

     

  2. Creating a new recipient

    Click ‘add recipient’ (the + sign in the top menu)

    • Fill out the details
    • Maximum length of fields as listed below

  3. Import Addresses

    Importing addresses requires a suitable CSV import file (MS Excel) and a matching import profile.

    You can learn all about it at the Importing and Exporting help page

  4. Export and Backup your Address Book

    For various use and for safety reasons you might want to export your address book from time to time. It’s greatly recommended to do this periodically in case you accidentally lose your address book! Consider doing this as taking a back-up.

    1. Go to Recipients (address book) in the left menu
    2. Next, click on the Export all Recipients button  in the top menu
    3. Finally, click on Export to CSV. If you have a large address book, this can take a while.
    4. This will generate a CSV file. It will normally automatically be saved in your Downloads folder.
