When entering new license information, how can I show more than 1 type of class code?    

You will need to add a new class code that would show the multiple codes.  In the License and Tax Menu, go to System, System, Ctl Files, and Class Code.  You can add the code here and then attach it to the business under Business Maintenance.  (Note: the class code has nothing to do with calculating the fees)
