Show Planner Opcode A: Add an item to the Show Planner
Show Planner Opcode A: Add an item to the Show Planner
This OpCode is used to add an item (typically an event/webcast) to the specified person’s Show Planner in the VTS system. If the specified item already exists in the show planner, its settings are updated. The user specifications may be made using either the email address or External ID. When using the email address, either omit or set LookupByExternalID to zero (0). When this is set to one (1), the user is located using the External ID. Planner Items are specified either by their description or by their code (event code). When using the description, either omit or set EntityCode to empty (‘’). When using the code, either omit or set EntityDescription to empty (‘’).
