Whether you’re preparing mail for a nonprofit or offering mailing as a service to build
your business, SAP® BusinessObjects™ Postalsoft, package for DeskTop Mailer is built
to let you hit the ground running. This affordable, entry-level solution provides complete
mail automation functionality—from address cleansing to delivery.
Accurate Addresses Mean Money in Your Pocket
To qualify for discounts on mailings, you must ensure that addresses are accurate and
complete. The U.S. Postal Service (USPS®) helps measure address accuracy by certifying
software solutions, through a program called CASS™ (USPS Certification Process
for ZIP + 4® Matching Software). Using a CASS-Certified™ solution helps ensure that
your addresses are as accurate as possible. However, not all CASS software is created
equal. SAP BusinessObjects Postalsoft has been proven to lead the way, year after
year. Some of the benefits of the CASS-certified software are:
- No need to be a USPS regulation expert—we do it for you, including advanced
options for address validation (DPV) and address conversions (LACSLink™), and
appending suite information (SuiteLink™)
- Desktop mailer uses the same address correction technology as the SAP
BusinessObjects Postalsoft software leveraged by the largest mailers in the world
- With complete, correct, and current addresses, you not only ensure timely mail
delivery, but also create the opportunity for postage discounts
A Proven Solution
Let’s face it—the rules for mailing can be difficult. Instead of worrying about complicated
postal rules, why not leverage the experience of the industry leader and start saving
money? For more than 25 years, thousands of mailers have been processing billions of
mail pieces using SAP BusinessObjects Postalsoft software solutions. You can be confident
that our team of experts has built your CASS- and PAVE™-certified mailing solution
to meet or exceed all USPS regulatory changes.
Keys to Successful Mailings
Desktop mailer edition combines CASS-certified software for address correction and
standardization, database management, merge/purge processing, presorting, custom
printing options, and other valuable elements into one affordable package.
Database Management
Get complete control over your database by capturing data manually or from existing
sources. Desktop mailer provides the ability to work with a whole list or a subset of the
data, based on your specific needs. Because collaboration among your team is critical,
desktop mailer additionally offers multiple-user access, which allows you to share database
files simultaneously.*
Duplicate Record Detection
Duplication of records results in increased postage and printing costs and causes your
customers to wonder if you really know who they are. This key software functionality
eliminates duplicates across multiple data sets with desktop mailer’s merge/purge option.
In addition, the software supports suppression and multibuyer lists, giving you greater
control over your mailings.
Certified Sorting Solution
The USPS provides discounts to organizations that prepare their mail in a way that
increases efficiency for postal carriers or reduces USPS processing costs. To ensure
a high level of accuracy in sorting, companies who mail should use PAVE- (Program
Measuring Presort Accuracy)** certified sorting software. As with addressing, not
all sorting solutions are created equal. Desktop mailer is PAVE certified as Gold—the
highest level possible—that means you save preparation time and money on postage.
Some of the benefits include:
- Eliminating the need for you to be a USPS regulation expert
- Eliminating manual mail sorting to increase productivity
- Providing all the necessary postal documentation to expedite mail acceptance
Advanced Label Design and Printing
Features within desktop mailer enable you to design and print dynamic mail pieces and
container labels in a what-you-see-is-what-you-get environment. Fully integrated within
the software, this option:
- Supports output for a wide variety of printers
- Decreases label setup time with graphical and intuitive design functionality
- Provides built-in templates that make setting up postal-approved labels a snap
