6.   The G/L Map Value field is an optional coding value that is used instead of the standard code value on any associated payroll general ledger files. 

Note: This may be especially useful when the G/L requires a lengthy or complex code value, making it very easy to maintain a simplified code value that is visible to employees/managers in ExponentHR without any need to alter your general ledger formatting requirements.

7.   Select an EEO code (the type of position represented by the job code) from the EEO Code drop-down box.

8.   If your organization reports the EEO Codes with an additional breakout of Job Group (an Equal Employment Opportunity value defined by the government), enter in the appropriate value in the  EEO Job Group text box.

9    If the job associated with this job code is FLSA exempt, select Yes from the FLSA Exempt (Yes/No) drop-down box. Otherwise, leave the box set to No.

10.  Select a pay grade for the position associated with the job code from the Pay Grade drop-down box.

Note: What pay grades are available vary by organization. You may add new pay grades or edit pay grades using the Company Codes utility. See the Related Help Topics.

Note: What W/C codes are available vary by organization. You may add new W/C codes or edit W/C codes using the Company Codes utility. See the Related Help Topics.

12. If any of the states in which you operate mandate the inclusion of Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) codes in your quarterly unemployment wage reporting, enter the appropriate code in the Std. Occupational Code (SOC) text box.

Note: Giving a code a status of Inactive will add the code to the system without making it available to managers. The code will not be available until you change it to Active.
