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