Overview of Accounting Options
An accounting feature on a mailing system 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 these ac-
counting options:
•
Standard Accounting Option
This is the base option that allows you to track postage for a
minimum number of accounts and is explained in this chapter.
•
Budget Manager Option
Budget Manager adds a handy budgeting feature in addition to
enhanced accounting. For more information, refer to the Budget
Manager Operator Guide.
