Account Modes6.3
Accounting Function
The accounting function lets you to track postage expenses associated with, for
example:
• Different departments in your organisation (marketing, sales...)
• Different companies on the premises, if the Mailing System is shared, etc.
Use one of the 'Account modes' to switch the accounting function on or off:
• Accounts (On): you can use accounts and create usage reports.
• No accounts (Off): postage usage will not be applied to accounts.
When the accounting function is on, the Mailing System charges the current account
when printing postage. Users can change accounts according to the provider of the
mail.
When the accounting function is off, all postage is recorded in the same general account.
As Supervisor, you can define accounts and groups of accounts, and then generate
reports on the usage of each account or groups of accounts.
You can also assign the accounts to different users, as described in Access Control
Function on page 152.
