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

Required Fields:

  • CreditorCompanyName - The company name of who the debtor owes money to

  • Date - Invoice issue date
  • AmountToRecover - Claim amount
  • Debtor - Complete debtor information with jurisdiction

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
