The example below explains the process and calculation of assessments for Duplicate Errors. The mailer in the scenario only exceeds the monthly error threshold for Duplicate Errors.

The process to calculate Duplicate Error verification results and assessments is below:
=
# of Scanned eInduction Containers with Duplicate Errors
Total # of Scanned eInduction Containers
19 Containers
9301 Containers
0.20%
For Duplicate Errors, the containers above the error threshold are rounded down to the nearest whole number. Mailers must have more than one container above the error threshold to be assessed additional postage.

( 9301 Containers x .0017 )
3.19 Containers (without rounding)

For Duplicate Errors, an additional step of calculating a mailers total average postage per container is required.
