7 • Standard Accounting (Option)

Overview of Accounting

An accounting feature on a mailing machine allows you to track your postage costs by categories. These categories can represent whatever makes sense to your organization - departments, people, locations, projects, etc. Tracking your mailing expenses by category allows you to manage and budget your postal costs in a more effi- cient manner.

With this model of mailing machine, you have a choice of using one of the following accounting options:

Standard Accounting Option - 5 Accounts

This is the base option that allows you to track postage for five accounts.

Standard Accounting Option - 10 Accounts

This is a higher option that allows you to track postage for 10 ac- counts.

Your machine stores the following information for each account:

An account name up to 14 alphanumeric characters long.

An account number.

The item total. This is the total number of pieces of mail charged to an account since it was last cleared.

The value total. This is the total amount of postage charged to an account since it was last cleared.

An account password (optional)
