              HELP-PROMPT:      Enter the full business activity code. This is composed of the Business activity code and sub-code 
                                used for DEA numbers. Answer must be 2-4 characters in length. 
              DESCRIPTION:      DEA uses an alpha character business activity code to identify various categories of registrants.
                                For example business activity code "C" indicates a "Practitioner". DEA added a business activity
                                sub-code field to identify new sub-categories of registrants.  For example business activity code
                                "C" in combination with business activity sub-code "1" indicates a practitioner who has received a
                                Drug Addiction Treatment Act (DATA) Waiver (DATA Waived or DW) to provide office based opioid
                                treatment to 30 or 100 or 275 patients (DW/30, DW/100, DW/275). As new sub-categories of business
                                activities become regulated, additional sub-code combinations (e.g. C-2, C-3, A-1, etc.) will be 
                                assigned. MLP = Mid-Level Practitioner. NG = National Guard.
