A PFMS agency is linked to the Ni-kshay portal by using the agency's unique code. This unique code is then used to link the PFMS agency to TB Units (Tus) in the Ni-kshay portal. This process is called the PFMS Agency to TU Mapping in Ni-kshay.

Agency-TU mapping serves as the bridge between Ni-kshay and PFMS and is a required linkage between the TU and the PFMS agency.

PFMS Agency to TU mapping is done at the central level, as per the following steps:

  • The district-level agency data approver (DA) gets the agency's unique code through the PFMS agency admin by following these steps: 

Login into PFMS -> go to My details -> go to Agency profile

  • The district-level agency data approver then sends the agency's unique code to the Ni-kshay helpdesk team by raising a ticket in the Ni-kshay portal. 

  • The Ni-kshay helpdesk team then updates the agency's unique code and maps the agency with the respective TUs.
