Domestic Mail


DMM REVISION

New 4-State Customer Barcode

Effective September 1, 2006, we are revising 202, 233, 243, 503, 507, 707, and 708 of the Mailing Standards of the United States Postal Service, Domestic Mail Manual (DMM), to allow mailers to use a new barcode on automation rate letters. The Postal Service-developed "4-State Customer Barcode" is a new barcode that mailers may use to encode routing and tracking information.

Automation-rate letters must have a valid delivery point barcode (DPBC). As of September 1, 2006, mailers who are Confirm service subscribers or Address Change Service (ACSTM) participants may use either a 4-State Customer Barcode or a DPBC on automation-rate letters. While neither Confirm nor ACS services are new, mailers will be able to access these services by using the new 4-State Customer Barcode.

OneCode ACSTM users must use 4-State Customer Barcodes on First-Class Mail letters to access the "Address Service Requested" ancillary service. For ACS mail, the 4-State Customer Barcode will include a numeric Business Entity Identifier in place of the ACS participant code as well as a unique numeric mailpiece identifier instead of the mailer keyline. Complete specifications for 4-State Customer Barcodes are defined in the Postal Service publication USPS-B-3200, which is available at http://ribbs.usps.gov/OneCodeSOLUTION.

Revised standards in DMM 503 will allow mailers to use a 4-State Customer Barcode instead of a PLANET Code barcode for OneCode ConfirmTM service. Mailers accessing OneCode Confirm and OneCode ACS also will be able to use 4-State Customer Barcodes instead of DPBCs for automation rate eligibility. As our technology evolves, we will accommodate additional mail classes, processing categories, and endorsements. We also revise DMM 708 to provide an overview for 4-State Customer Barcodes.

a. Origin Confirm pieces:

1. For business reply mail, the piece must bear a PLANET Code barcode and a POSTNET barcode that corresponds to the subscriber's business reply mail ZIP+4 codes assigned by the USPS under 507.8.0.

2. For all other letter-size reply mail, the piece must bear either a 4-State Customer Barcode or both a PLANET Code barcode and a POSTNET barcode at the time of mailing. The 4-State Customer Barcode or POSTNET barcode must correctly correspond to the delivery address.

3. For all other flat-size reply mail, the piece must bear both a PLANET Code barcode and a POSTNET barcode that correctly corresponds to the delivery address.

b. Destination Confirm pieces must bear either a 4-State Customer Barcode (for letter-size mail only) or a PLANET Code barcode. If required by the rate claimed at the time of mailing, 4-State Customer Barcodes must correctly correspond to the delivery address. Mailers not using a 4-State Customer Barcode for Destination Confirm must use PLANET Code and POSTNET barcodes under these conditions:

1. If required by the rate claimed at the time of mailing, Destination Confirm pieces with a PLANET Code barcode also must bear an appropriate POSTNET barcode that correctly corresponds to the delivery address.

2. If a POSTNET barcode is not required by the rate claimed, the mailer has the option to apply the POSTNET barcode to such pieces for optimal Confirm service information if the barcode correctly corresponds to the delivery address.

[Renumber current 13.3.2 through 13.3.7 as new 13.3.3 through 13.3.8. Add new 13.3.2 as follows:]

The following options are available to identify Address Change Service (ACS) mailpiece participant codes:

a. ACS human-readable participant codes are provided to authorized mailers by the National Customer Support Center (NCSC) (see 608.8.0 for address). This participant code consists of seven alpha characters, aligned left, and must be preceded by a single pound sign (#) delimiter. Additional information for using the human-readable option is available in Publication 8, Address Change Service.

b. When using 4-State Customer Barcodes, mailers are participating in the OneCode ACS option of ACS. See 3.2.6 for restrictions. The NCSC provides the numeric OneCode ACS participant code to authorized mailers using the 4-State Customer Barcode (see 708.4.2). As part of the application process, a Business Entity Identifier (BEI) is assigned to identify the participant, or a mailer can choose to register one or more of their existing BEIs for use with OneCode ACS. Mailers must incorporate the BEI code in the Customer Identifier field, the unique mailpiece identifier in the Sequence Number field, and the appropriate Service Type Identifier field of the 4-State Customer Barcode according to Specification USPS B-3200. Customers can access the 4-State Customer Barcode specification at http://ribbs.usps.gov/OneCodeSOLUTION.

[Revise title and text of new 3.2.4 and 3.2.5 as follows:]

4.3 4-State Customer Barcodes

4.3.1 Definition

A 4-State Customer Barcode is the USPS-developed barcode that mailers use to encode routing and tracking information on mail that can be read by automated mail processing equipment to sort mail and to provide tracking information to the mailers. A 4-State Customer Barcode consists of 65 vertical bars, each representing one of four possible states: full bar, ascender, tracker, and descender. These 65 bars encode a string of 31 digits, divided into two parts: a 20-digit tracking code, and an 11-digit routing code. The 11-digit routing code may contain a ZIP Code, a ZIP+4 code, or a delivery-point code. When used on letters for automation-rate eligibility purposes, the routing code must contain a delivery-point code that accurately matches the delivery address. The 20-digit tracking code consists of several components:

a. A 2-digit Barcode Identifier that defines the barcode type.

b. A 3-digit Service Type Identifier that identifies the extra services requested by the mailer.

c. A 6-digit Customer Identifier, including a USPS- assigned Business Entity Identifier, to identify the mailer.

d. A 9-digit Sequence Number assigned by the mailer to uniquely identify individual mailpieces.

4.3.2 Specifications

Complete specifications for 4-State Customer Barcodes are defined in USPS publication USPS-B-3200, which is available at http://ribbs.usps.gov/OneCodeSOLUTION. This publication also provides details on how to encode the routing code and tracking code into a 4-State Customer Barcode, barcode dimensions and spacing, clear zone, skew and rotation tolerance, and print characteristics. The assignment of a Barcode Identifier, Service Type Identifier, and Business Entity Identifier are described by the respective publications of each extra service. These publications are also available at http://ribbs.usps.gov/OneCodeSOLUTION.

***A mailer receiving address corrections through Address Change Service (ACS) may use the first eight positions on the left side of the OEL for an ACS human-readable participant code.

* * * * *

7.2.3 ACS Code in OEL

[Replace the first sentence in 7.2.3 by adding the qualifier "human-readable" as follows:]

If an ACS human-readable participant code (see 507.3.2) is used in an OEL on a label or in an address block, the delimiter symbol (#) must be in the first position at the left margin of the OEL, followed by the seven-character USPS- assigned ACS participant code, then one blank space.***

7.2.4 No ACS Code in OEL

[Replace the first sentence in 7.2.4 by adding the qualifier "human-readable" as follows:]

If an ACS human-readable participant code is not placed in the OEL as permitted by 507.3.2.4, the OEL must be filled with asterisks from the left margin of the label or address block up to the first character in the OEL.***
