Mailers Can Automatically Update Drop Ship Data and Labeling List Data

Friday 07. August 2009 - Window Book's software including Postal Package Partner now has a new Data Distribution System that enables mailers to automatically update Drop Ship data and Labeling List data as changes are made on the USPS website. Once you configure your system and set the frequency of downloads, it will automatically update your program on a daily/weekly/monthly basis at a set time as programmed.

In addition to Postal Package PartnerTM, Window Book’s DAT-MAILTM, Post MasterTM, TagMasterTM and DropShipITTM are also capable of using this new Automated Data Distribution System. It will automatically download the new drop shipping and labeling list data and update the software system automatically on a schedule you determine. The data also displays version numbers as well as dates for confidence in accuracy.

“Mailers, presort services, and transportation companies who process drop shipments can now benefit from our Automated Data Distribution System that will give them local integrated access to the most up-to-date and accurate information on Drop Ship and Labeling Lists automatically,” said Jeffery Peoples, Window Book’s CEO.

For mailers who process drop shipments of pallets of mail, tray tags, sack tags or PMOD Priority Mail Open and Distribute mailings, having up-to-date information on drop ship redirection file and labeling list data is a critical part of their operation. Using updated data updates helps them profit by making sure their handling units and containers go to the right place with the correct codes. Having the ability to update the data electronically and automatically at a set schedule will allow mailers to reduce errors as well as save time and labor spent on updating each change manually.
