Create case as managing partner

POST 

/managed-cases

Creates a collection case on behalf of your client (or yourself) through the Debitura platform.

Understanding the Creditor Field: The creditor is the party that the debtor owes money to. This can be: • Your client's company - When you're submitting cases on behalf of clients you represent • Your own company - When you're submitting your own debt collection cases

How It Works:

  1. You provide the creditor's basic information (company name + country)
  2. Debitura creates a creditor record (if one doesn't exist)
  3. The collection case is created under that creditor
  4. You are set as the managing partner
  5. The case is automatically assigned to a collection partner based on jurisdiction

Managing Partner Benefits: • Submit cases on behalf of your clients via API • Maintain your client relationships • Leverage Debitura's global partner network • Monitor case progress through read-only access • Provide full-service debt recovery to your clients

Debtor Rules: • debtor.type must be "Company" or "Person" ◦ Company → debtor.name is mandatory (company name) ◦ Person → debtor.name is mandatory (person's full name) • For Company debtors, debtor.contactPerson is required • debtor.country (or debtor.countryAlpha2) is always required • debtor.state is optional - only provide if the debtor is in a specific state/region

Optional Fields: • DueDate - Invoice due date • Comments - Additional notes • ClaimDescription - Description of the claim • CreditorReference - Your client's internal reference • CollectionPartnerId - Override automatic partner matching • IsTest - Mark as test case (excluded from production metrics)
