Creates a new case
You have the option to add companies and people at the point of case creation or at a later stage.
When adding companies at the point of case creation, you can retrieve company registration data by setting registry_search
to true
, and ensuring that company_name
, company_number
, and jurisdiction_code
are not empty. If the company registration data cannot be found, the case is created with the provided company details. If the company registration data is found, the status
, number_of_officers
, and number_of_owners
are updated to reflect the registry data.
Additionally, you can choose to add all the company's (human) officers to the case by setting add_directors
to true
. Note that this flag is applicable only when registry_search
is set to true
.
