How to get Saturation or High Density rates in AccuZIP6

Your database has to be in walk sequence order prior to opening it in AccuZIP6. If your list is in walk sequence order and you have a sequence number field in the database where the sequence numbers are in walk sequence order, then you can get the walk sequence saturation or high density rates in AccuZIP6.

When you open the list in AccuZIP6, make sure you assign the field named walkseq_ to the sequence number field in your list. If you don't have a walk sequence number field, you can add this sequential number field with AccuZIP6 Data Enhancement Services.

Assign your other fields as usual. If you’re presorting letters, then validate the list. If this is a simplified address mailing or if you’re presorting flats, don’t validate.

After validation, pull down the sort menu to Presort Mail.

In the Presort Setup widow, make sure you check the Include Carrier Route box. If you’re presorting Letters, make sure Machinable and Print Barcode are also checked. If you’re presorting flats, you won’t need to check the Print barcode box.

Enter your 5 digit ZIP Code, and if you plan on dropping mail at your SCF facility, check the SCF box.

Presort your list, and you should get saturation or high density rates.

Would you please pass along to the rest of the AccuZIP team how refreshing it is to have great support? I was an Accuzip customer for several years and left almost 2 years ago thinking the grass was greener on the Bulk Mailer side of the fence. BOY WAS I WRONG! It was one of the worse decisions I made in a long time and actually switched back before my subscription was up with them, paying for an entire year of their software without using it. Eric welcomed me back, and your team got us up and running in no time. The tech support with BCC which gobbled up Bulk Mailer was horrid at best. Very sterile and no personalities or willingness to help at all when you actually were able to talk with someone.
