API change historyProvides methods for working with customer objects and data.
Deduct Customer Reward Points
This API deducts Reward Points from a given Customer's Reward Point ledger. Please read below for important functionality constraints:
- The amount of Reward Points may be positive or negative. Regardless, the absolute value of the number provided will be deducted from the Customer's Reward Point ledger.
- The "Source" of the Reward Points will display as "Public API".
- IMPORTANT: There is no safeguard against a negative reward point ledger balance. Deductions larger than the remaining ledger balance can go negative. Please verify you are using this API in accordance with desired business workflows.
