9.2 Exclude Item Type from 3rd Party Charge Node
Purpose: Use this document as a reference for how to remove a single item type (or more) from a Tree Node for 3rd Party Contracts.
Audience: SF Staff, 3rd Party Contract Staff
You must have at least one of these local college managed security roles:
- ZD SF Third Party Contracts
- ZZ SF Third Party Contracts
If you need assistance with the above security roles, please contact your local college supervisor or IT Admin to request role access.
When setting up 3rd Party Contracts, it may be necessary to exclude a specific charge from a Tree Node so that it is not paid. Instead of reorganizing your item types via the Tree Manager, it is much easier to simply tell specific ctcLink 3rd Party Contracts to exclude such charges from out of the charge group (or Tree Nodes.)
This item type exclusion process required two different ctcLink pages (Contract Node Change Request & Process Node Change Request.)
