# Case exclusion reference fields

The Case Exclusion Rule table stores the rules that determine when Invoice Case Management ignores an inbound email instead of creating an invoice inquiry case. This reference describes the table, its fields, and who can manage it.

Case exclusion rules are stored in the Case Exclusion Rule table \(`sn_spend_sdc_case_exclusion_rule`\), which is built on the Common Service Delivery application by extending the S2P Custom Configuration table \(`sn_fin_s2p_custom_config`\). Rule records use the **Case Exclusion Rule Config** configuration type.
