Add package number to container tags for letter size mail

AccuZIP Tray Tag with number of packages

If you would like the number of packages to appear on the tag of non-packaged-based presorts, you can follow the instructions below:

  • With your database open, pull down the Edit menu to Command
  • Create a new command and name it Change Presort To Packaged Based For Tags 

Paste the command below into the Command Statement Syntax area (but don't run the command yet):

com_alias=dbf()
lcFile = GETFILE("rpt", "Select a Table File", "Open", 0, "*.rpt")
SELECT 0    
USE (lcFile) ALIAS SelectedTable
replace all Gpb_ind with "P"
cPath=addbs(justpath(dbf()))
delete file cPath+"tags.txt"
delete file cPath+"presort.tag"
USE IN SelectedTable
select (com_alias)
  • Run your presort as normal.
  • Close the Print Presort window.
  • Pull down the Edit menu to Command and run the  Change Presort To Packaged Based For Tags command.
  • The command will prompt you for a *.rpt file, so navigate to the presort folder, and double-click the only file that appears, the presort.rpt file.
  • Close the command window, then pull down the File menu to Print Presort
  • With your presort open, print your tags.

I wanted to take a minute to write accolades for your employee Eric Lambeth. I have been calling on Eric for training and help in the Accuzip software since May and I want you to know that from a client standpoint, he is second to none! Eric has gone way above and beyond in helping me learn and navigate your software as well as helping us through some crazy situations we have encountered. It is clearly evident that he knows this software inside and out. It is also evident that Eric loves the customer and is willing to do whatever it takes to help – he has even answered emails and called me on the weekend to help through some stuff I was unsure of! I cannot express enough how wonderful Eric has been for our organization. I will tell you that I came to this organization with a background in BCC software with plans to transition to BCC software. Eric’s knowledge, guidance, training, and willingness to help at all hours of the day/week has sold me on Accuzip! Your software solution is more user friendly and the support staff far exceeds BCC! I am also looking forward to investigating your other software solutions.
