Re: Suggestions wanted on reducing time to assemble month-end invoices

Jim

How many sheets do you have in each bundle? We could have upwards of 100 or more. The machine our Print Services is thinking of is limited to 5 or sheets.

Thanks

To add to the total mix of solutions, we use Formserver/400 (for many
years), and our different forms are merged together on a Pitney Bowes sorter
& inserter, reading the barcode Formserver adds to each . This is an
insurance company and that EOB (explanation of benefits) you get after each
& every medical visit is often merged with either a check or other docs, and
we can do thousands daily. It takes one person to print the stuff and one to
handle the sorter/inserter - couple hours.. One of our sister companies, on
another platform, is still lining up multiple people and many tables for
the daily sort and stuff (not pretty).

Thanks, Justin - that helps!

The most recent case, we had a *SCS spooled file, a *USERASCII spooled

file and a PDF for each order. We just sent them to the OUTQ with the three
for a given order back-to-back. Originally, the *SCS, *USERASCII and PDF's
all came from separate programs, so we had to change the process to create
all the documents for a single order together.

We do not use separator pages. The documents themselves are distinct

enough to server as separators.

In the OUTQ, the spooled files look like this:
*SCS-Order#123
*USERASCII-Order#123
*PDF-Order#123
*SCS-Order#456
*USERASCII-Order#456
*PDF-Order#456
*SCS-Order#789
*USERASCII-Order#789
*PDF-Order#789

Hi Justin

A little more detail, maybe - do you mean each statement and associated

invoices are one document?

And did you include am easily-recognizable separator?

The invoice run precedes the statement run - and there are other processes

in between - I don't know yet if those have any bearing on the statement
run.

Thanks
Vern
