Overview of the Accounting Feature
If your model has the departmental accounting feature, you can
setup your system to track postage costs incurred by individuals or
departments in your organisation (e.g., Engineering, Sales, etc.). The
number of accounts available on your system is based on the amount
purchased or supplied with your model. Your system stores the
following information for each account:
• A name up to 12 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
The maintenance of your accounts is done through options on the
Accounts menu, accessible by pressing the selection key next to
“ACCT” at the Home screen (if feature is activated).
Each Accounts menu option is discussed in this chapter.
