ACR 60159 (Part Two) – TINS System Change
March 9, 2018
Introduction
On Aug. 25, 2017, FMX announced a partial implementation of Application Change Request (ACR) 60159 that created a new TINS inquiry screen for warrants on hold and held warrants released or offset, Payee Warrants on Hold and Released (PYWTHB).
ACR 60159 has implemented an additional system change to the Payee Maintenance History (PMTHIS) screen when held warrants are offset.
Issue
The warrant hold offset process can result in a reduction to a payee’s liability amount or a payee hold release. Payment Services staff must manually process hold releases or liability amount changes in TINS to update the payee’s hold record.
Solution
Implement an automated process that updates changes to the hold liability amounts and hold releases when held warrants are offset. The PMTHIS screen identifies these system-generated transactions from online transactions as follows, displayed in the before and after screen examples below:
- The DLN column displays OFFSET.
- The OPERATOR ACID displays AOP (Automated Offset Process).
