      For Prelabel (Port Payé) you will need to insert your N° Coclico and contract number MA (you can find this information in your contract).


      Also, you will need to contact your Account Manager in order to give you the Tracking Range for your connection.


      Fill in the other information with your contract:

      - Account Number       (usually, it has 6 digits)
      ​- Prefix (write "2L")
      - Postage Number (like a stamp)

      - Contract Number
      - Account number       (usually, it has 6 digits)
      ​- API Username
