LSC OnePrice - DAT-MAIL Setup

This procedure assumes that LSC One Price has already been added as a carrier in the Carrier List.

There are additional settings for LSC OnePrice users to complete in DAT-MAIL after adding carrier information before they can begin using the MCTM function.

• Mailers who wish to use trailer manifesting functions in DAT-MAIL with LSC’s OnePrice system need to specify the carrier to use by clicking the corresponding Browse for the Carrier for LSC OnePrice field in the Setup screen’s Logistics tab. From the Browse the Carrier File window, select LSC - LSC for OnePrice.

  

• The Browse for Carrier File screen will close, and the selected carrier code and name will display in the Carrier for LSC OnePrice field in the Logistics tab. Next, select the Parsed Historical Header Job ID radio button under Multi-Carrier Manifest Job Management to specify how the system should perform job look-ups.

  

  The Parsed Historical Header Job ID option is where the first five characters of the Mailer’s historical header Job ID (the Job ID created by their presort program) represent a numeric Job ID. The last three characters represent a three-character ‘List ID’ or version.

  The Parsed Historical Header Job ID option is required for all LSC users and any Mailer who uses both LSC and non-LSC carriers.

• Next, in the Setup screen, select the Export tab. Select the following checkboxes: Auto-calculate CSM gross weight and Export using Historical Job ID.

  By selecting these export options, all Mail.dat files will be exported using corrected gross weight, and Historical Job ID replaces the system-generated Job ID (not just LSC OnePrice exports).

  

• Next, select the Mailer Information tab. Make sure to enter the corresponding Mail.dat User License Code that coincides with the LSC OnePrice and DropShip/Copal credentials before importing Mail.dat files to be used with the LSC OnePrice and DropShip/Copal system.

  

• And lastly, in the Setup screen, select the Pallet Tracking/Intelligent Mail tab. Select the Enable Pallet Tracking checkbox. This option will ensure that a 12-character Unique ID is generated, which is not the same as IMb. This option also allows for every job imported to have its pallets displayed in the MCTM system.

  

• Finally, click OK to save the changes and close the Setup screen.

  At this point when the Multi-Carrier Trailer Manifesting option is selected from within the Logistics menu, the corresponding function buttons will appear in the navigator-style menu.
