Location, Location, Location

You create an application for a small business in SmallBusinessCentral using the location of the business. If the business has more than one location, choose the primary location of the business where the services will be delivered or where the grant or loan will be used. An application for a business location only needs to be created once.

When you create an application in SmallBusinessCentral, some business information data fields will pre-populate with business information submitted to the San Francisco Treasurer & Tax Collector when the business registered. These fields include Business name, Business DBA name, Business address, City, State, Zip, Business registration date, and business location start date.

The Application Date is the date on which a small business or entrepreneur first began receiving services at your agency.
