ByVal gen_time_bombs As Boolean) As Integer
Description
This API causes the specified subcase to have its status changed. The subcase may be opened or closed, but the status selected MUST be valid for the current condition. In other words, you cannot assign a close condition status to a subcase that is currently open. You may assign notes to the status change, as well as set the time of the status change, and the user who changed the status. The API can also generate a time bomb (for business rule notification).
