I am a new QB user. How does one add an employee's social security number (numbers and dashes)?  Should I just use the numeric feature and just forget about inserting dates between sets of numbers?

I suggest using a numeric field for data entry and then a formula to display with the dashes. I can help with that formula if you like. It would also be possible to have a Custom Data Rule to validate the number. I assume it has to have a certain number of digits and there must be a check digit which could be validated.
