Description
These APIs are used to create a note log against a case. The APIs allow for the assigning of notes, internal use only text, and an action type. The date the note is logged can be set, as well as the user who logs the note. Also, a new status can be set for the case. Additional fields can also be set as well as a time bomb (for the note log), which allows notifications to be generated based on the event.
Optionally, you can also set a commitment with the note log. If you wish to set a commitment, you MUST set the commitment due date (cmit_due) and the commitement title (cmit_title). The commitment title usually comes from the user-defined list "COMMITMENT", but it does not have to for this API. Any string is acceptable. The other commitment fields are optional. You can add notes to the commitement , and a prior warning. Also, you must set if the commitment is to the contact or by the contact. The contact for the case is always used for the commitment contact.
The objid of the created log is returned in the FCCS object variable ret_objid.
The objid of the commitment log record is returned in the FCCS object variable ret_objid2.
The objid of the status change record is returned in the FCCS object variable ret_objid3.
Parameters
