Configure this entry to allow you to close out a given courier when the courier has done a pick-up. This allows the system to begin allocating bin numbers again at the DYNAMIC BIN LOW, and it starts the numbering of invoices within bins over at 1. Uses no special settings.
When MANUAL COURIER CLOSE is configured, the mailout program allows an entry of the word CLOSE for tray number. When the word CLOSE is entered, a menu will display that allows you to choose the courier to close. Simply pick the courier and the program will print a packing list. The packing list follows the printer routing for the program name AXM. If packing list printing is not preferred, route this program to the output port /tmp/packing.out.
