Cabler Support

How can we help? Below are answers to freguently asked questions (FAQ).

User IDs and log in

If your company already uses the Cabler, the administrator will give you your own User ID. If not, please contact our customer service asiakaspalvelu(at)cabler.fi and we will open a Cabler account for your company.

Once your username has been created by the administrator, it will be sent to your email address. It is valid immediately. After that we will recommend that you log in to Cabler website and change your password.

You can log in to the Cabler website at cabler.fi and clik "Kirjaudu sisään" or write on the address line https://cabler.kiho.fi/.

The Cabler mobile application is available for download on both Android and iOS. The download links are at the bottom of this page and in the email you received with your username.

If you have administrator credentials, you can create an unlimited number of new user accounts in the Cabler. Log in to the web application, then click on Settings - Users - New User. Finally press save and the new user will receive an email with their username.

If you have user accounts, please ask your company's administrator to open new accounts or update your account to administrator.

The administrator always has all rights by default. Similarly, the user has no rights to any project or site by default.

The user is assigned permissions either by the project (Projects - Edit project - Shared with users) or by the user (Settings - Users - Name - Shared projects).

The user can: update the drum card (comments, cable usage and change the work site) and the drum location.

The user cannot add or delete: drums, users, projects, sites or cables. Nor can the user download excel files, reports or view information related to the drum refund.

Changing your own password:
1) Log in to the Cabler web app
2) Click on 'your name' under the Cabler logo on the left.
3) Enter your new password and press 'change'.

Changing password for another user:
1) Log in to the Cabler web app
2) Press Settings - Users and select the user whose password you want to change
3) Enter the new password and press 'change'.

Note: Only the main user can change passwords for other user accounts.

You can request a new password from the 'Forgot your password?' login page of the web application by entering your username. A new temporary password will be sent to you by e-mail.

Alternatively, you can ask your company administrator to change your password for you (path: Settings - Users - Name - Change password).

Cabler first generates a username for the user based on their name, e.g. Matti Meikäläinen --> matme22.

You can log in to Cabler using either the username (matme22) or the email address (matti.meikalainen@esimerkki.fi) associated with your account.

Please note that if, for any reason, two different usernames are opened with the same e-mail address, you must use the first username (matme22).

Log in to the Cabler web application, go to Settings - Users and click on the name of the user you wish to delete. Then click on the 'delete' button at the bottom left of the ID card and confirm that you wish to delete the user.

User IDs are deleted immediately and cannot be recovered. If you accidentally delete the wrong User ID, you can create a new User ID for them in Settings - Users - New User.

Note: Only the main user can delete User IDs. It is in everyone's interest that the user list is kept up to date and that there are no old users (e.g. summer worker IDs) on the lists.

Each Reka's drum is marked as follows:

-> The drum number on orders, packing lists and in the Cabler is 26K123456
-> Each drum has a drum label on the flange with the drum number and corresponding QR code

Open the scanner and instead of reading the QR code, press 'enter drum number' and enter the drum number as it appears in Cabler.

E.g. REKA CABLE: reel type + number = e.g. 26K123456

The drum card will open and you can update the drum information and location.

Note: The Cabler drum return currently only applies to The Reka Cable drums. If you have added other drums to the Cabler, you can archive them.

1) Fill in the Reka Cable drum return form and tick the box Cabler yes (if you use the Cabler and the drums are in the Cabler)

The first time you make a Cabler drum return, we recommend you contact the Cabler customer service in advance.

Only one client reference can be on a credit note. So if you make a Cabler drum return with 10 drums with reference XY and 10 drums with reference JK, you will receive two separate credit notes.

The client reference is saved for each drum in the returns tab.
