(ESP) Setting Up Spanish Workforce Tables
To set up Spanish workforce tables, use the Social Security Country Code (SOCS_CNTRY_ESP), Industry Activity (INDUSTRY_ACT_ESP), Insurance Company (INSUR_COMPANY_ESP), Social Security Risk Code (SOCS_RISKCD_ESP), Social Security Scheme (SOCS_SCHEME_ESP), Social Security Occupation Cd (SOCS_OCCUPATN_ESP), Social Security Company Setup (SOCS_SETUP_ESP), Social Security Data (SSEC_DATA_ESP), and Hiring Center Table (HIRING_CENTER_ESP) components.
If your organization does business in Spain, you must set up several tables to track information required by the Spanish government for Spanish workers.
