New Offset AICs for Vending Overages or Shortages at IRT and e-MOVES Offices

Effective February 15, 2007, new account identifier codes (AICs) have been created as offset accounts to overages and shortages in vending stock credits. These AICs apply only to integrated retail terminal (IRT) and Electronic Money Order Voucher System (e-MOVES) offices.

Overages and shortages in vending stock credits will no longer offset to vending postage sales, instead they will automatically offset to the new assigned AICs, which will adjust vending stock credit accountability to the amount as counted. The following are the assigned AICs:

• AIC 299, SIA, Vending, and APC Stock Shortage Offset.

• AIC 699, SIA, Vending, and APC Stock Overage Offset.

• AIC 843, Stock Adjustment Overage.

• AIC 849, Stock Adjustment Shortage.

Vending stock credit overage will continue to be in AIC 175, Vending Machine Overage, and will automatically offset to AIC 699 and AIC 843. This will adjust the vending stock credit accountability to the amount as counted.

Vending stock credit shortage will continue to be reported in AIC 612, Vending Machine Shortage, and will automatically offset AIC 299 and AIC 849. This will adjust the vending stock credit accountability to the amount as counted.

The following table provides complete details for the new AICs.
