Type

PostSort creates two types of bundles/boxes.

 

 

Direct

 

 

A direct bundle/box contains postal codes for the same post office.

In Sweden, the bundle/box may contain different postcodes, but in the other Nordic countries it is usually the same postcode.

 

 

Trans

 

 

A trans bundle/box is a bundle/box of postal codes for a postal code area/letter area.

Trans bundles/boxes are created because the basis for a direct bundle/box to the respective postal code is missing.

 

 

Unit

Here we specify whether the products are to be bundled or boxed.

 

 

Even out

Activated

 

 

PostSort tries to create as even bundles as possible.

 

 

Inactivated

 

 

PostSort tries to create as many max bundles as possible.

 

Max

# layers

Specifies the number of rounds of bundles/boxes that can fit on the carrier.

 When the function is activated, there is a risk of going outside the postal rules for box / bundle.
