You can use this application to set the ESS PIN ID for all employees of the selected taxable entity using the employee's four-digit year of birth and the last four digits of his social security number. You can also set the class of service for all employees of the selected taxable entity to the Default Class of Service defined in the ESS Company Settings screen. If you set the ESS PIN ID, the employees will be prompted to change this PIN after their next successful login to ESS.
