BCC Software to Showcase New Media Mail/Library
Mail Option
at NPF Fall Show
Rochester, NY—BCC Software, the leading
developer of high performance software and solutions
for professional mailers, will showcase a valuable
new premium option for its highly acclaimed Mail
Manager 2010™ software at the National Postal
Forum (NPF) in Kansas City, MO, September 21-24,
2003.
Media Mail and Library Mail, the latest premium
Mail Manager 2010 option, will be spotlighted along
with an array of product improvements and enhancements —particularly
the addition of support for the United States Postal
Service’s® 8125 Plant-Verified
Drop Shipment form; new User-Defined
Functions for Mail Manager
2010; and recently released TagIt Pro on-demand
container tag printing software.
Media Mail is a USPS® sortation used to earn
mailing discounts when shipping bulk quantities
of media including books, film, printed music,
or educational charts. Library Mail preparation
standards are especially helpful for such educational
and research material distributors as libraries,
universities, zoos, and research institutions.
These new capabilities allow mailers to take advantage
of discount rates available for bulk quantities
of the Media and Library Mail classes.
BCC’s 8125 feature, now offered as a free,
inherent capability within Mail Manager 2010, allows
users to print the USPS 8125 Drop Shipment Form,
required for bulk mailers who use Plant-Verified
Drop Shipment (PVDS) verification and clearance.
BCC also supports 8125-C, used for consolidated
verification and clearance.
Improvements to Mail Manager 2010’s existing
User-Defined Functions augment the considerable
built-in features that have long offered tremendous
flexibility when manipulating or “cleansing” data.
Using text files, simple mini-programs can be written
to perform complex operations; for example, a mini-program
could be created to compare each address to a list
of store locations, then enter a code in the record
to indicate which store is closest. The language
used includes a number of operators and commands
that can help make basic expressions more intelligent
and useful.
At NPF, BCC Software will also showcase TagIt
Pro™, an improved version of BCC’s
TagIt software, which increases efficiency and
improves productivity by eliminating delivery delays
caused by mislabeled containers. This easy-to-use
container-tag printing software now enables mailers
to print tags from any Windows®-compatible
printer as well as from BCC’s own TrayMate™ printer
family. This makes the software’s comprehensive
benefits available to virtually all mailers without
requiring the purchase of any additional hardware.
TagIt Pro includes all current USPS labeling list
tables for First Class, Periodical, Standard and
Package Services.
Hourly and on-demand demonstrations of these and
other software solutions will be offered at the
BCC Software booth, #306, throughout the NPF show.
