Mail Code Address Validation
TINS requires a valid address on batch transactions when:
- A new mail code is submitted (T-code 650) or
- A mail code address is changed (T-code 652).
Certain mail codes are excluded from the address validation requirements in TINS, such as mail codes:
- Generated by HRIS, USPS or SPRS
- Added or changed in TINS by agencies and institutions of higher education for state employees (Ownership Type = E)
- Set up for tax refunds (e.g., TXX mail code)
TINS attempts to validate the address information for all other mail code transactions:
If TINS Finds… | Then TINS Will… |
---|---|
A single address match without alterations, | Accept the address. |
A single address match with alterations, | Accept the address and issue a warning message on the agency reports TINS 84104A or TINS 84104W. |
Multiple address matches, | Reject the batch transaction and issue an error message on the agency reports TINS 84104A. |
