# [TCS/WebTCS Party Type Updates - June 30, 2025](https://info.courts.mi.gov/jis_info/tcs/webtcs-party-type-updates-june-30-2025)

 Written by [JIS Service Desk](https://info.courts.mi.gov/jis_info/author/jis-service-desk) | June 23, 2025 at 1:11 PM

To prepare for future development work and to align with MiFILE, software updates regarding party types will be applied to the Trial Court System (TCS/WebTCS), effective Monday, June 30, 2025.  

Updates include:

- Work with Party Types (**PYY**) screen will have a new **Effective Date** field for party types. Party type codes can be inactivated by JIS and reused with next effective date.  See screen capture below.
- Court users will no longer have security to make changes on PYY.  If a user attempts to use options: **2**=Change, **4**=Delete, **F6**=Create, an error message will display.
- When adding a new party to a case, the application will evaluate the file date and only display valid party types with an effective date equal to, or greater than, the file date.
- Reports: Warrant List, Case List, Probate Fiduciary Reports and Probate Guardian List.  When **F4** (Prompt) is used on the **Party Type** field, allparty types will display including those with inactive dates, in the event a user needs to select inactive parties when generating the aforementioned reports.

If changes to Party Types are desired, please contact the JIS Support Center at [https://support.courts.michigan.gov/portal](https://support.courts.michigan.gov/portal).  All requests will be evaluated and assessed.
