The Home Screen
The Home screen is the first screen displayed when you log onto the system. It contains all of the application buttons you need to start any of the system applications including Run Mail, Jobs, Funds, Manage Accounts, Reports, Rates & Updates, and Settings.
The Message Center
The Message Center at the bottom of the Home screen allows Pitney Bowes to communicate directly with you. This area is routinely updated and provides:
- Access to savings opportunities and special offers.
- Software and rate update notifications.
- Key USPS® information that may impact your operation (for example, Rate Change).
- Tips on improving mail center efficiency.
- Notification of planned service interruptions.
The Message Center icon will appear in the header bar along the top of the screen if you are working in one of the system applications when a new message becomes available. You can return to the Home screen at any time to view the new message.
