This web service inserts or updates a single engagement based on a detailed engagement structure (PwsEngagementDetail). The service returns the identity (PwsEngagementRef) of the engagement that has been inserted or updated. The caller can optionally request that the full engagement detail (PwsEngagementDetailPwsEngagementElement) be included in the response.  Please note, upon creation of a new engagement, certain attributes may be derived from engagement type defaults.  Additionally, if a non-billable engagement is created, the specified culture and currency will be ignored. Rather, the currency is derived from the engagement's company's currency, and the culture is derived from the currency's default culture.
