Default TCM reprogram

Has anyone had to have the TCM reprogrammed after a transmission fluid change? I've read about it on the older Dodge Rams and Caravans after servicing or replacing transmissions to relearn shift points or something. Just curious if it's needed for a simple transmission oil change on the fourth gens. Has anyone experienced transmission shift problems after a change?

Had mine changed just before a 2000 km road trip and never noticed a difference.

TCM relearn is not needed on a transmission oil change. Change oil and drive.
