Nothing really. The TCAS will aid me in finding the traffic once you point it out. If as in the enroute environment we receive traffic calls well outside of viewing distance, I can keep myself updated to its position in relation to me. Given that, I don't really expect too many updates once I say I see it on the metal detector. Not required by SOP or practice, I guess you could make an argument it borders on excessive verbiage.
