How to move from Class 4769 to the right Sub-class

NIC 4769 is an intermediate hierarchy page, not usually the final code used in a filing. Use it to compare child entries, read the nearby-code context and move toward the most precise six-digit Sub-class. If the child list contains several similar activities, open each candidate page and compare the wording against the business's real operating model.
