Examples

Create a new WIPBIN with a name of "Important" and a description. Create it for "Gary", and make it the default WIPBIN.

Visual Basic:

Dim ret_int As Integer
Dim wipbin_objid As Long

ret_int = fcinter.create_update_wipbin("Important", "", "A description.", "gary", true)

If ret_int = 0 Then
  wipbin_objid = fcinter.ret_objid
End If

JavaScript:

var ret_int = fcinter.create_update_wipbin("Important", "", "A description.", "gary", true);

if (ret_int == 0){ var wipbin_objid = fcinter.ret_objid; }

Update that WIPBIN. Change the name, and clear the description. Don't make it the default WIPBIN.

Visual Basic:

Dim ret_int As Integer

ret_int = fcinter.create_update_wipbin("Important", "Important Issues", "CLEAR", "", false)

JavaScript:

var ret_int = fcinter.create_update_wipbin("Important", "Important Issues", "CLEAR", "", false);
