The .pbc Barcode field must be populated with 31 characters when the associated .cqt Service Level Indicator field is populated with F(Full Service)

The .pbc Barcode field must be populated with 31 characters when the associated .cqt Service Level Indicator field is populated with F(Full Service).","Populate the .pbc Barcode field with 31 characters when the associated .cqt Service Level Indicator field is populated with F."

This error occurs in a carrier route qualified letter size mailing because CQT-1112 contains an F in a grouping that contains a non-deliverable address (which has less than 31 digits in the PBC-1122 field).

The cause of this error will be due to a non-deliverable address having a number in the walkseq_ field and the record qualifying for carrier route rates.

SOLUTION: Show Non ZIP+4 Records (Select menu > Show > Non ZIP+4) and use the Special menu > Fill feature to fill an underscore (which is a value of nothing) into the walkseq_ field for that selection of records.

Show all records and presort again.

You are a genius and I have no excuse for not thinking of this before calling. Our customer is good with cutting the tops and bottoms for the booklets to get under 16 ounces. Thank you for getting me out of a jam and thank you even more for offering your help with this project! I decided to switch to AccuZIP after speaking with Steve at the Minuteman Show. I was impressed with his idea of customer service and you have totally proven him right.
