or Discount
When you select the surcharge method from the Set Up menu, you are set-
ting a g
lobal surcharge, or a surcharge that applies to each transaction (or
batch) processed by INVIEW™ Accounting, unless a batch surcharge

You can apply a global surcharge per piece of mail, per transaction, and/or

pieces processed b
y the surcharge setting. The per piece surcharge
can be set anywhere from -1.00 to 1.00.
• A per transaction surcharge is applied
to each batch (or transaction)
run on the system. The per transaction surcharge can be set anywhere
from -50.00 to 50.00.
• A per transaction percentage surcharge
is calculated multiplying the
postage cost of the entire batch by the percent transaction setting. The
per transaction percentage can be set anywhere from -100% to 100%.
If you want to apply a batch surcharge, or a surcharge that is customized
for
a specific transaction, see Running Mail, Entering a Surcharge in this
