FORT MYERS, FL -- Harvey Software announced today it will release a new
version of its best selling product, the Computerized Parcel System (CPS),
in January 2004. This new version of CPS adds the newest UPS®
technology, plus enhancements for FedEx® and US Postal Service®
shippers. CPS users can now take advantage of many new UPS services,
including sending UPS their daily shipping data over the Internet or by
direct dial-up. For all
carriers, the new CPS processes package records up to 80% faster. With
easier data entry screens, more streamlined shipping steps and a simplified
daily close out, every aspect of package processing with CPS is faster, more
efficient and easier.
In addition to using the Internet for daily data transmissions, UPS shippers
can perform a time-in-transit lookup easily for any package, receive
verified ZIP+4 updates for the CPS customer file, provide
UPS Quantum View NotifySM
ship notification services, use UPS Return and Returns Plus services, and
take advantage of UPS Flexible Insurance services. International UPS
shippers benefit from expanded commercial invoice options, additional SED
capabilities, the ability to record increased foreign currency amounts,
using the International UPS Exchange Collect service, or, delivery of an
international package only after UPS receives payment.
"In addition to supporting the latest carrier technology, we want to make sure
our parcel processing capabilities are the best, bar none for CPS shippers," said Bert F.
Hamilton, Harvey Software's President/CEO. "CPS was already fast and the
new speed improvements make it that much more remarkable, but that's just the
start,"
A new critical file backup utility is now part of every CPS, the SHIP eLERT® e-mail shipment notification can be customized even more, field sizes are increased to help with both carrier requirements and user needs, and daily shipment reports are more useful, with more detailed payment reporting and summary report options.
"The improvements to CPS represent almost a solid 3 years of client research and programming effort. I believe that both current and new CPS users will be very surprised and pleased with the results the all new CPS. I can think of no better way to celebrate 20 years of serving our clients," Bert Hamilton concluded.
The new version is now
shipping and will remain at its current price until February, 2004. All
current clients using CPS and who have an active service agreement will be
upgraded the first half of 2004 on a scheduled basis at no additional cost.
