Status/Collect Cards

If you have a new carrier on a route, you may want to give him or her cards of all subscribers who are office pay or carrier collect.

Notes:

Business Rules govern card size and how cards print.
If you only want to print status cards or collection cards for new subscribers or subscribers that have changed payment method, go to Publishing | Status/Collect Cards (see Status/Collect Cards).
Status cards and collections cards are forms. For information about form printing, see Printing Forms.

To print either type of card:
