I have not seen any specific documentation other than to stop the clock for shooting fouls.
It has been my experience that the table stops the clock when it realizes a free throw will be attempted (common foul in the bonus, a foul against the shooter, intentional fouls, technical fouls, etc.). So, as I report the foul to the table, the clock has already been stopped by the timer.
