Burglary of a Business (Just Occ) is coded as?

Decoding these codes relies on two parts: the offense type and the timing of the incident. Burglary of a business is shown by the base code 11B. When the situation is described as “Just Occurred,” a suffix is added to indicate that timing, making the full code 11B/01. This combination precisely communicates both what happened and when it happened. The other options don’t fit because they either omit the timing information or refer to a different code entirely, so they wouldn’t convey the correct offense and status together.
