Table 1: FMS Tape Record Layout CPSS: 08.90.017.05 Vendor/Misc. Agency ACH Payment File 

(Vendor/Misc. & Preauthorized Debit Data Record (CCD+)) 

Example: An agency is purchasing postage from the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) for loading onto a meter 

leased from one of the four postage meter companies. Following is an example of how this record is to be 

completed. Note: Data in the fields in “Red Bold Italics” are not the actual numbers the agencies will 

use in preparing their payment records. Therefore, when completing these records, the agency must 

substitute actual numbers for all fields showing numbers in “Red Bold Italics.” These “Dummy 

Numbers” represent sensitive data, agency-specific information, or proprietary information. 

For purposes of this example: 

o The USPS TIN Number is 987654321. 

o The USPS Bank’s Routing and Transit Number is 22000221. 

o The USPS Bank Account Numbers for the four meter companies are 11111111, 22222222, 

33333333, and 44444444. 

o The Agency Location Code is 41414141. 

o The Agency’s postage payment is $3,629.53.
