Master and Mail Code Setups and Changes
Payee Mail Code Change (PCHGMC)

The PCHGMC screen is used to make changes to the mail code information for a payee already in TINS. Based on the user’s Line 1 entry, the PCHGMC screen may include a recall step before the payee master information is displayed for updates.

If the payee was initially set up with an SSN or ITIN, the assigned 7 TIN is required to make changes to the TIN already on file. See the Payee Number Matrix.

Access

Access PCHGMC through the TINS Update Menu (PYMENU) screen or Line 1 Entry.
