We support sending Dangerous Goods documents using integration to DG Office which is a 3rd party software. DG Office is an expert in dangerous goods documents and ensures that the documents you print fulfill the legal requirements.
DG Office subscription
To use the DG Office integration in our cloud solutions, you need a subscription to the Web Service module of DG Office.
The DG Office subscription is provided by DG Office and their dealers and must be made with them. If you already have a DG Office subscription, it must include the Web Service module subscription to work with nShift Ship.
