Overview

This structure represents the unique key fields associated with identifying a rate card. Rate Cards define frequently employed rate structures (hourly or daily billing rate per title) used to bill clients. Rate Cards can be identified by RateCardName or RateCardUid. When specifying a PwsRateCardRef as an input to a web service, you may specify one or both the RateCardName and/or RateCardUid. However, if you do specify both, they must both refer to the same rate card or the rate card reference will not be considered valid. When a PwsRateCardRef is returned in the response to a web service, both the RateCardName and RateCardUid will be populated, and guaranteed to refer to a single rate card.
