Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for franking postal items, in which a postage indicium is requested from an operating and printing unit of a plurality of operating and printing units, generated in a franking unit, made accessible to the operating unit and in the operating and printing ⁇ unit is applied to the mail.
  • the invention also relates to a device for franking mailpieces with a franking unit for creating postage indicia and a plurality of operating and printing units respectively connected to the franking unit via a data line for printing out the postage indicia.
  • the German patent DE 100 20 566 C2 to Annelnel discloses a method and a device for franking mailpieces.
  • Digital postage indicia are thereby created in a customer system which can be divided into a central component for the creation of postage indicia using a stored postage amount and a local component with a printer.
  • data are logged within the customer system, from which a usage overview is created that contains a prepared summary of usage data.
  • the logging within the local component has the disadvantage that it is not or not reliably possible for companies that operate a plurality of printing units to obtain a consolidated overall overview of all franking transactions.
  • log lists created within the customer systems do not provide sufficient protection against manipulation.
  • a user of a printing unit could change a protocol, delete it or render it otherwise unusable.
  • a complete protocol created from partially manipulated protocols is not complete and therefore largely unusable.
  • a method for franking postal items in which a franking mark is requested from an operating and printing unit of a plurality of operating and printing units, is generated in a franking unit, made accessible to the operating unit, and made available in the Operating and printing unit is applied to the mail items, is performed so that a Transak ⁇ tion request from the operating unit to the franking unit, processed by the franking unit and the Er ⁇ result of processing the transaction request from the franking unit is transmitted to the operating unit , that this
  • Result of processing the transaction request at least partially in an independent logging unit is detected and stored and that a franking mark is applied to the mailpiece using the Er ⁇ results of the transaction request.
  • Such a method makes it possible to store a consolidated protocol for a plurality of operating units in a protocol unit, so that the protocol is secured on the one hand against manipulations that could be carried out in the area of the operating and printing units and on ⁇ particularly effective in the logging unit in front of a access can be protected by unauthorized persons.
  • transaction request is to be understood here in its broadest meaning and refers to all transactions which are carried out for franking mailpieces on the basis of digital postage indicia.
  • the transaction requests comprise requirements for loading a postage amount that is used for generating postage indicia, and requirements for transmitting a postage indicium.
  • a notification about the storage of the result of the processing of the transaction request is transmitted from the logging unit to the operating and printing unit.
  • the postage indicium is only applied to the mail item when the notification of the storage of the result of the processing of the transaction request has been detected by the operating and printing unit. This ensures that franking can not be carried out without logging being carried out.
  • the transaction request is detected at least aus ⁇ preferably in the logging unit.
  • a notification about the storage of the transaction request is transmitted from the logging unit to the franking unit.
  • the transaction request in the franking unit is processed only when the notification has been registered about the storage of the transaction request in the franking unit. This ensures that the transaction requests whose processing result is used for franking mailpieces are at least partially recorded in the logging unit and stored in memory.
  • the transaction request, the result of the processing of the transaction request and / or the information about the posting of the postage indicium are transferred at least in part from the operating and printing unit to the logging unit.
  • the protocol unit can thereby be protected particularly easily and reliably against access by unauthorized persons via this network.
  • the result of the processing of the transaction request is at least partially transmitted from the franking unit to the logging unit.
  • the operating and printing units can be excluded kept ⁇ .
  • the result of the processing of the transaction request contains cryptographic information which makes it possible to check the authenticity of the postage indicium.
  • a particularly effective protection against manipulations during the franking of mailpieces is achieved.
  • the Transticians ⁇ request and / or the result of processing the Transak ⁇ tion request contains an identifier of the operating and printing unit.
  • the identifier of the operating and printing unit together with the Transaction request and / or the result of processing the transaction request is stored in the logging unit. This allows an association between the transaction request and / or the result of processing the transaction request and the operating and printing unit.
  • transaction requests, results of the processing of the transaction requests and / or information about the application of franking comments for the plurality of operating and printing units are combined to form a consolidated usage overview.
  • the method according to the invention thus makes it possible, for example, for intra-company user surveys to be carried out to evaluate and control the frankings carried out in the company in a logging unit of the company, without these overviews being able to leak out of the company.
