Invalid .mpa permit number and .mpa Postage Payment Method

"There is an invalid .mpa permit number and .mpa Postage Payment Method combination; the permit number must reference an active permit for the associated payment method at the .mpa Permit ZIP+4 code in the .mpa file."

The error references your permit number and the ZIP+4. The permit number goes into the Mailing Statement Setup window of AccuZIP6 and the ZIP Code goes into the Presort Setup window, in the Mail Drop Setup area. The ZIP Code you enter must be the ZIP Code of where that permit is held. If it’s not, then you’ll get the error you received.

I am especially motivated to take time to draw attention to Vince. In two instances, we potentially faced loss of product – significant loss, but thanks to everyone’s efforts, most notably Vince’s, we ended up with minor re-work and zero loss of stock. He’s patient and thorough, knowledgeable and resourceful. And he’s patient – A Big Plus when dealing with me. Long story short, the guy was able to not only produce a solution, but to prove to me the veracity of it. I hung up the phone saving thousands of dollars in catalog stock, not lost but salvaged, and my department had to spend just a wee bit of time on job re-work (which I was happy to do, all things considered). But I also hung up with a peculiar urge to write about Vince, incongruent as that may be since I rarely am moved to write letters of this sort. So… In a time of crisis, Vince was a terrific asset and ally. If I were his boss, I’d attempt a merit raise authorization, he was that exceptional.
