AI-generatedSummary
Create a new contract in the BackOffice ERP system by providing required and optional contract details.
Inputs
- Subject (required) — The subject or title of the contract.
- Datestart (required) — The contract start date and time.
- Client (required) — The customer ID associated with the contract, supports smart search by name or keyword.
- Dateend — The contract end date and time.
- Contract type — The numeric identifier representing the contract type.
- Contract value — The monetary value of the contract.
- Description — A textual description of the contract.
- Content — The content or body text of the contract.
Output shape
a single JSON object representing the newly created contract as returned by the BackOffice ERP API
The output includes the created contract details as received from the API. The client field supports smart search to resolve names or keywords into IDs before sending the request. Validation and auto-fill attempts occur based on input data; if multiple matches occur for IDs, helpful messages are returned instead of creating the contract.
