LP Business Class Maintenance

Updated on

Summary

Business classes and business types are optional divisions you can attach to licenses to categorize LP licenses. Business classes are not directly attached to licenses. Instead, business classes are attached to business types, and business types are then attached to LP licenses in the License Maintenance window (LP> Maintenance> License> Open or create a license> General tab> License Type field).

A business class is a broad group and can be attached to many unique business types, so business types are generally used as a sub-grouping of business classes. For example, if you would like to track the issuance of several types of restaurant licenses, you could create a restaurant business class, and have business types such as fast food, sit-down restaurant, and restaurant with bar.

Step by Step

 

1     Open the Business Class Selection window.

  • The Business Class Selection window (LP> Maintenance> Business Class) will display all of the business classes created in the application.
  • Highlight a business class and click the Delete icon to delete the business class.
    • If you delete a business class that has attached business types, those business types will no longer be associated with a business class.
  • Highlight a business class and click the Modify icon or click the Create icon to open the Business Class Maintenance window.

 

2     Create a Business Class.

  • Enter a unique business class name in the Class field. This name can be up to 20 alphanumeric characters.
    • Once a business class code is created it cannot be edited.
  • Enter a business class Description. This optional field can be up to 60 alphanumeric characters.
  • Click the Create icon to associate a business type with the new business class.
    • This will open the Business Type Selection window.
    • Highlight a business type and click the Confirm icon to return to the Business Class Maintenance window.
    • Each business type can only be associated with one business class. If you attempt to attach a business type to a second business class a validation error window will display which class the type is already attached to.
  • Click the Save icon to save the new business class.
