How do I complete the EMD spreadsheet that was attached to my Order Confirmation?

You received this spreadsheet only if you indicated that you were dropping your mail at multiple postal facilities.

The spreadsheet provided by TrackMyMail.com is pre-populated in the correct format. (See description of the fields that you provide below). On your spreadsheet, fields in dark blue are required-light blue fields are optional. Any required fields that are not pre-populated with data must have data entered prior to uploading. Any required fields that are pre-populated by TMM include a formula or number that must be copied for each mail drop.

The following fields are to completed by the user:
(Please note, in our spreadsheet, Columns “A”, “B” and “C” are combined to create the 20 digit shipment id in Column D).

  • Column A: Shipment ID –(We provide)
  • Column B: User Assigns – A unique 4-digit number assigned by the client to differentiate multiple mail drops. Each drop requires a unique 4-digit number. (Recommendation: Sequential – 0708, 0709, 0710 etc...)
  • Column C: CheckDigit – An embedded formula in this field on the attached spreadsheet will calculate the Check Digit automatically when you enter the User Assign numbers in Column B.
  • Column D: Complete Shipment ID – The complete 20-digit number which we automatically calculate from the previous 3 columns.
  • Column E: Facility - The 3 or 5-digit code for the facility where the mail drop will occur.
  • Column F: Drop date – Enter the drop date for each shipment. Please be aware that the postal service will not accept EMD files with drop dates in the past.
  • Number of Planet codes – Enter the number of PLANET Coded pieces going to the specified facility..
  • Total Mail Qty - The total number of pieces dropping at that facility.
  • PLANET code - The PLANET code assigned by the TrackMyMail system
  • PLANET coded pieces - The number of pieces with PLANET codes for that drop
