- Walk Sequence
- This field contains a number which allows your mail to be presorted in Walk Sequence order. The Walk Sequence number is required for Walk Sequence and High Density mailings.

You must submit your mailing list to a postmaster or USPS licensed service bureau in order to get a walk sequence number assigned to the valid records in your list. The Walk Sequence processing of your list is called DSF.
