This means that if your Department/Office does not use the additional analysis codes then you will only 

have to complete the steps above once. 

If however, should several analysis codes 3+4 exist for your Department/Office it is important that you 

change your analysis codes when appropriate - remember you will need to click on Additional Options 

to do this. If you do not change your analysis codes they will revert to the last ones used.
