How to open an account in TCOps

You can search by adviser name to see your new adviser code. Your new Branch, Organisation and Department will then pre-fill automatically.
Which option should I select for "Account Type" when opening a new account?

I have updated a TFN or dividend banking, how do I send this update to the share registries?
Updates made to dividend banking and TFN in TC Ops > Account Maintenance > HIN Details no longer require a second step to send to the share registries. This will happen automatically when the update is saved.
How do I update bank details for dividends?
TC Ops > Account Maintenance > HIN Details > Bank Details.
Click the blue edit button, add or update the bank details.
Click Confirm. Bank details are automatically updated at the share registries via CHESS message.
How do I update bank details for settlement?
TC Ops > Account Maintenance > Bank Details
Important to note - Default CREDIT and DEBIT accounts are shown on two separate lines, so you may see the same bank account listed twice. Debit and Credit accounts need to be updated separately.
To add a new bank account, click the blue "Add" button. Nominate if this account is for DEBIT or CREDIT, add the details, and click save. To add an account for both CREDIT and DEBIT, you will need to click "Add" again to add a second line, to nominate for the other method.
Once the new bank account has been added, you will need to change the default.
To change the default bank account, click the blue "Defaults" button. Select from the dropdown which bank account you would like for Default Credit, and which for Default Debit. [Tip - If you can't see the bank account you want in the dropdown, you will need to go back to the previous step and add this bank account for Debits and/or Credits).
To change the settlement method click the blue button "Sett Method".
Important - Where default settlement bank details are updated during an in-flight transaction, the bank details for the in-flight transactions will not auto update.

How do I update/add a new email address for receipt of trade confirmations/contract notes?
TC Ops > Account Maintenance > Communications
To edit an existing email address, click on the email address you wish to change, click the blue "Edit" button, amend the email address and click "Save".
To add a new email address, click "Add", enter the new email address and click "Save". When adding a new email address in this screen, the client will be automatically opted in to receive contract notes.
To remove an email address, click on email address you wish to remove, click the blue "Edit" button, and untick "Current". The email address will be removed and will no longer receive contract notes.
