Commingling/Batching Tab
Commingling is a method by which Print Content Items are merged together to create mail
pieces going to each recipient. For instance, retrieving a letter, an invoice and a notice within
the same mail piece, which presumably could be added within the same envelope. Batching is
the same principle when all the Print Content Items are generated using the same Template
file. This tab is only available if the Content Item option is selected in the General tab's Entity
to retrieve drop-down. To modify any of the following options, click in the Parameters box and
then click the [...] button that appears.
l
Document contents: Defines the Document ("Mail Piece") level and how they are built.
l
Pick items based on: Use the [...] to open the "Pick Parameters" on page628
dialog and define how to pick which items will be placed in each document. Content
