A-4 Seamless Acceptance Error Thresholds

Seamless Acceptance verification data is located on the Seamless tab of the Mailer Scorecard but is only displayed in the eDoc Submitter view. Since May 2015, Mail Owners had access to the Seamless tab of the Mailer Scorecard. Mail Owners are only able to see results for pieces in which they are identified as the Mail Owner in eDoc. The following table provides forthcoming Mailer Contact thresholds.
