7 • Accounting Setup

You can have all single top level accounts or you can mix both single and multi-layered accounts. The lowest level in the account structure is where charges are incurred. An account or subaccount, just like the subsubac- count is the chargeable account when it’s the last, or single, link in the structure. Piece count totals and funds used are transferred among ac- counts, subaccounts and subsubaccounts when they are chargeable ac- counts.

When you use an account to print postage, you are using the chargeable account in a link of accounts (e.g., Engineering/Industrial Design/Graph- ics and Layout) to draw from the meter’s postage funds obtained through Postage By Phone®.

When you view accounts or print reports you are being given information on funds used and pieces processed for each account in the hierarchal structure. For example, (Engineering) with totals for all its subaccounts and subsubaccounts. The subaccounts (e.g., Industrial Design) show to- tals for their subsubaccounts (e.g., Graphics and Layout and User Friendly Testing) and the subsubaccounts show their individual totals.
