Uploading postal and transactional information
If you use an accounting system, such as Business Manager or Total meter Reporting, you must
upload your postal and transactional information to Pitney Bowes. You can do this by selecting the
Manage Accounts button in the Mailing tile on the Home screen.
Upload this information prior to synchronization to ensure that your accounting system can obtain the
most current data from your mailing and shipping system. If you upload postal and transactional data
periodically throughout the day it reduces the overall upload time.
1. Select the Manage Accounts button in the Mailing tile from the Home screen. Your meter
automatically uploads any pending transactions to the accounting server.
Important: If the meter is unable to connect to the Pitney Bowes Data Center, check to make sure
there are no connection issues.
Refer to your Business Manager User Guide for more information about synchronization.
What is Cost Accounting?
Cost Accounting helps you ensure that all of your products are using a common, consistent list of Cost

use by your products automatically.
