Search customers for time tracking
Searches the customers that have tasks the calling user is allocated to (or all customers with tasks, with searchAll).
The customer picker of time registration. By default it returns customers that have at least one task the CALLER is allocated to, matched by name, nickname or number. With searchAll=true it returns every customer that has any task — this needs the 'register on all tasks' privilege. Results are ordered by CustomerID, newest first; for "most recently used first" use GET /v1/customer/search-for-time-tracking-order-by-recent-registration.
Use it to:
- Customer drop-down in a time-tracking client, before choosing project and task
Not for:
- Full customer register →
GET /v1/customer
Behaviour:
- Idempotent.
- Safe to retry.
- Consistency: eventual
Next: POST /v1/time-registration
See also: GET /v1/customer/search-for-time-tracking-order-by-recent-registration, GET /v1/customer/search-for-expense-travel-registration-order-by-recent-registration
Not yet documented: behaviour → consistency; request → query params.
