CEPT Mysore News...
In
order to further improvise the features and functionality available in
Speed Net and resolve some of the operational issues faced by the
Circles, a new version of Speed Net called “Speed Net 4.1” has been
released by CEPT. The files containing the new version of the Speed Net
software is available for download at the following url (CEPT FTP site):
What does the new version provide?
Version 4.1 adds following features:
(i) Returned to Sender (RTS) / Missent remark
for despatch of Speed Post articles would be mandatory for delivery
Post Offices. Without valid RTS/missent remarks, the article cannot be
returned back by the post offices. This should resolve the problem of
lack of RTS remarks faced by many circles.
(ii) Provision to select delivery date while taking delivery returns in case of bulk delivery
through Sorting Hub/IC Hub under Bulk Delivery option has been made for
Sorting Hubs and Intra Circle Hubs. Thus, in case the bags have been
close and sent for delivery by a Sorting Hub on a particular day but
delivery could not be done for any reason the same day, there would be a
provision to enter the actual date of delivery. However, it is informed
that this provision may be used carefully.
(iii) Bulk Addressee Special Delivery Slip
(generated by SH/ICH for making bulk delivery directly to the bulk
addressee) has been redesigned and it is available for SH / ICH. This
allows printing of 3 Speed Post articles per row, and hence, consumes
less paper.
(iv) Updation of delivery remarks for Articles
under “Other Office Articles – Delivery Data” option is now limited to
offices falling under the PIN code jurisdiction of a delivery Post
Office. This has been done to prevent misuse of the feature of updation
of delivery data facility.
(v) A provision now exists to upgrade local databases from Central Server through Speed Net Communication. This would help the central system to push new updates to the local systems centrally.
