Abstract

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de comptabilisation d'affranchissements qui s'applique au traitement d'un courrier par lots, éliminant le besoin de faire des inspections sur place. Un expéditeur achète une valeur d'affranchissements et stocke la valeur achetée dans la mémoire 26 du dispositif de comptabilisation. L'expéditeur du courrier traite des lots de courrier et diminue la quantité des affranchissements en mémoire pour tenir compte du courrier traité. (CF DESSIN DANS BOPI)
