Adding Standard Occupational Classification Codes for Employees

You must collect and maintain Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) codes for employees who work in the following states:

Before you can track SOC codes for employees in these states, you must install the U.S. Payroll Compliance SuiteApp.

To learn how to install a SuiteApp, see Installing a Bundle.

To add SOC codes for employees:

  1. Go to Lists > Employees > Employees.

  2. Beside the employee name, click Edit.

  3. Click the Payroll subtab.

  4. In the Standard Occupational Classification field, enter the SOC code that corresponds with the employee’s job. For more information see https://www.bls.gov/soc/.

    Note:

    The Standard Occupational Classification field appears only if the employee’s workplace is set to a location in Alaska, Louisiana, South Carolina, Indiana, or Washington.

  5. Click Save.

After you update the employee record, you must also update payroll information. For more information, see Updating Payroll Information.
