{% hint style="info" %}
To access the **Basic Settings**, proceed as follows:
[getting-started](https://docs.solutioo.de/dpdconnector/dpdconnector_en_us/getting-started "mention")
{% endhint %}
When you start the **guided setup**, a pop-up window will open.\
Here you’ll also find a reference to this documentation in case you encounter any questions or issues.\
Click *“Next”* to begin the actual setup process.
## **1. Mode Selection**
In the first step, you can choose whether to start the connector in **Production Mode** or **Sandbox Mode**.
If you select "*Sandbox"*, entering your customer account data is **not required**.
Only when switching to "*Production"* will an additional configuration screen appear, prompting you to enter your Delis ID, password and sending depot for the DPD Business Customer Portal.
{% hint style="warning" %}
To avoid input errors, copy your Delis ID and password into a text document first, verify them, and then paste them into Business Central. Extra spaces before or after the input often cause errors.
{% endhint %}
After entering your data, click *“Next”* to continue.
## **2. Sender Data**
In the second step, you’ll be asked to provide your **sender information**.\
It’s best to **maximize the pop-up window** by clicking the *“Expand”* icon in the top-right corner (next to *“Close”*) so that all rows are clearly visible.
Hovering over each field label displays additional information.
#### **Sender Name 1**
Enter the sender’s name that should appear on the shipping label. This can be a person’s name or a company name.
#### **Sender Name 2**
Optionally (!) add a second line for the sender’s name — for example, a last name or additional company details.
#### **Street**
Enter the sender’s street name.
#### **House Number**
Enter the house number of the sender’s address.
#### **Zip Code**
Enter the postal code of the sender’s address.

## **3. Test the Connection**
**If all fields are filled out completely, click “Next” to proceed to the final page.**\
There, you can test the connection to DPD by clicking the button.\
If the test fails, please review your entries carefully for typos or formatting errors.
## **4. Done!**
Click *“Finish”* to complete the configuration.
Your **DPD Connector setup** is now complete and ready for use!
