Method allowing a mailing system to frank in advance and manage a large number of rate tables stored in the mailing system, and in particular providing the possibility to frank mail in advance using a new future rate table and to come back later to franking with today's date and using a previous rate table, and including the main steps: provision of a control module, which can store more than two rate tables in a non-volatile memory accessible by the control module, provision of a volatile memory which can store the active rate table that is currently used by the mailing system for franking mail pieces, selection by the control module of the active rate table amongst the rate tables stored in a non-volatile memory when the mailing system is powered on and loading of this active rate table by the control module in volatile memory, initiation by the control module of the change of the active rate table triggered by determined events, selection by the control module of a new rate table based on the franking date defined by the operator or by the mailing system and the application date of the new rate table. |

1. Method allowing a mailing system to frank in advance and manage different rate tables stored in the mailing system, and including the steps:
provision of a mailing system with a control module, which can store more than two rate tables in a non-volatile memory accessible by said control module, provision of a volatile memory accessible by said control module, which stores the active rate table that is currently used by the mailing system for franking mail pieces, selection by said control module of said active rate table amongst the rate tables stored in said non-volatile memory when the mailing system is powered on, and loading of said active rate table by said control module in said volatile memory, when a determined triggering event initiates the change of the active rate table, selection by said control module of a new active rate table amongst the rate tables stored in said non-volatile memory, based on the franking date defined by the operator or by the mailing system and the application date associated with said new rate table, and loading of said new active table rate in said volatile memory for franking. |
