Setting Up a Global Surcharge or Discount

When you select the surcharge method from the Set Up menu, you are set- ting a global surcharge, or a surcharge that applies to each transaction (or batch) processed by INVIEW™ Accounting, unless a batch surcharge overrides it.

You can apply a global surcharge per piece of mail, per transaction, and/or per transaction percentage.

A per piece of mail surcharge is calculated by multiplying the number of pieces processed by the surcharge setting. The per piece surcharge can be set anywhere from -1.00 to 1.00.

A per transaction surcharge is applied to each batch (or transaction) run on the system. The per transaction surcharge can be set anywhere from -50.00 to 50.00.

A per transaction percentage surcharge is calculated multiplying the postage cost of the entire batch by the percent transaction setting. The per transaction percentage can be set anywhere from -100% to 100%.

NOTE: The dollar amount enter can be either positive or a negative. A negative amount indicates a discount will be applied to the postage amount for the trans- action. A positive amount indicates a surcharge will be applied to the postage amount for a transaction.

If you want to apply a batch surcharge, or a surcharge that is customized for a specific transaction, see Running Mail, Entering a Surcharge in this chapter.
