ContractExclusionAllocationCode

IMPORTANT  The SOAP API entered a limited enhancement phase in Q4 2020. Access to version 1.6 will eventually be deactivated. At this time, there is no end-of-lifecycle date.

This entity describes a Work Type billing (or allocation) code that has been excluded from a Contract; that is, time entries associated with the contract cannot use the excluded work type billing code. If a resource attempts to save a time entry with a work type (or role) that is excluded by the associated contract, a warning message opens. If the resource continues the save, the time entry is saved without an associated contract, unless a default exclusion contract has been set up (Contract.ExclusionContractID).
