Merchant Category Codes (MCCs) are four-digit codes assigned to merchants, sellers of goods and services, such as airlines and car rental companies. MCCs can indicate either the merchant type, such as hotel, or a specific merchant, such as Holiday Inns. These codes are included in the data imported into the system with each of your Comdata Mastercard transactions.
In some instances, you may want all transactions with a specific MCC to have the same account coding type or coding strings assigned to them by default. You can set these MCC defaults for all your transactions that are imported into Expense Track. This process alleviates the need to apply accounts coding to these transactions every time they enter Expense Track. In addition, if you’re a Delegate for other users, you can apply MCC accounts coding defaults to some or all of your Delegators’ transactions.
Note: Your account Administrator may set universal MCC defaults that apply to transactions of all users within your Expense Track Tenant setup. Defaults set by your Administrator will supersede all other accounts coding defaults, such as those set per user, per expense item, or per accounts coding type. However, if you set a personal MCC default, it will override the settings applied by your Administrator.
Also, note that permission 99 – Can Manage MCC Coding Defaults is required to add and edit global default values. Permission 4209 – Save Personal MCC Coding Defaults is required to add and edit personal and Delegator default values.
