Setting Up NAICS Codes

To define NAICS codes, use the NAICS Codes component (SCC_NAICS_TBL).

The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) replaced the U.S. Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) system in 1997 and was revised in 2001 and again in 2002. It was developed jointly by the U.S., Canada, and Mexico to compare business activity statistics across North America. This North American code indicates the type of business that the external organization conducts such as manufacturing, staffing, education.

This section discusses how to define the NAICS codes.
