Overview

This structure represents the unique key fields associated with identifying a project rate type. Project rate types are configured on a per project basis, and are based on a standard rate type. with the ability to override contract and billing adjusted rates, either by specify the flat rate or specifying a discount percentage. Resources select one of the availiable project rate types when entering time against the project. Project rate types can be identified by an ExternalSystemIdentifier or ProjectRateTypeUid. When specifying a PwsProjectRateTypeRef as an input to a web service, you may specify one or both the ExternalSystemIdentifier and/or ProjectRateTypeUid. However, if you do specify both, they must both refer to the same project rate type or the project rate type reference will not be considered valid. When a PwsProjectRateTypeRef is returned in the response to a web service, both the ExternalSystemIdentifier and ProjectRateTypeUid will be populated, and guaranteed to refer to a single project rate type.
