8. Other helpful hints:
Have PMR label border of stamps with cost per sheet of the sheets that do not have 20 per sheet. This helps eliminate errors in selling these stamps.
Label which stamps are to be sold only as a complete book and which can be sold as a single stamp.
Label stamps in the drawer with “On Sale Date” so they are not sold too early.

9. Supporting Documents needed for 1412 closeout:
PS Form 3602 Postage Collected through Postage Meter

Support Documentation Crosswalk lists all AIC’s needing receipts.
Credit/Debit card receipts. Run a batch close on the VeriFone and verify receipts match batch close. Credit/Debit card receipts are filed in a “separate, secure location from the 1412 documentation.
Do not need to keep documentation but do need to keep track of:
Retail Product Sales, Forever Stamp Sales, Endangered Species Stamp sales and Breast Cancer Stamps so you can total and put on 1412.
