The Real Benefits of Piece Level Tracking from Printing to Mail
Print file data is parsed and sent as an electronic job ticket to the automated production tracking system. This would include the job, the number of pieces, service level information, etc. As the documents leave the printer, the tracking system logs that they have been printed with a date and time stamp that is archived for both real time and future reporting. The printed documents may then be sent to a single or multiple finishing stations which have reading stations as well. As the documents pass through finishing, each document is tracked and logged with a time and date stamp. So to, as the documents flow through the inserting process each document is read and logged with date and time stamp. Thus, complete reconciliation of the end to end print-finish-mail production process can be done automatically and with the highest degree of accuracy. Error prone manual audits are replaced with dedicated technology systems.
