Version 8.2 brings three improvements to XTRF:
- Working TM updated when uploading a Bilingual document in the Vendor Portal (Smart Projects). This improvement requires memoQ version 8.2 or higher.
- Vendors need to confirm the Invoice amount when uploading an Invoice file via Vendor Portal.
- First Close and First Delivery Dates in Classic Projects.
New CAT Tool versions supported:
- Trados 2019
- memoQ 8.7
Additionally, we'd like to share already some system features we consider deprecated and will be removed from the system in version 9:
- Separate client/vendor portal URL configurations. "Client Portal URL" and "Partner Zone URL" is deprecated and will be removed in the subsequent major release. They are non-functional anyways, the portal addresses are hardcoded and non-configurable.
- "Relative to Home" setting for Directories. In subsequent releases, all directories will be relative to "System Home Directory". If you have XTRF in an on-premises deployment, make sure your customized paths do have this flag checked.
- Initial empty directories creation on disk for Classic projects. Directories will be created on demand when uploading files. The current mechanism has some performance issues during both project creation and subsequent storage maintenance when you have a lot of empty directories.
- Support for Apache Velocity in Macros and Virtual Columns.

@Marek: It seems that 8.1 is now rolled out. Will you provide more detailed release notes, explaining the new features? E.g., I just tested the hyperlink recognition in the Internal Notes field of Smart Projects and cannot get it to work.
@Sancho, I'm sorry this post got a bit outdated and I've lost a track of it. I've updated the content. The markdown has been moved to version 8.3.
The link recognition introduced in 8.1 works in the Vendor Portal. The main idea is to be able to paste a link into the vendor instructions which will be recognized as a hyperlink in the Job Manager.
This feature will be extended into formatting instructions by the means of a markdown in version 8.3
@Marek: Thanks for updating this page. As for the active hyperlink and markdown feature, are you restricting this to the VP only? The 8.1 release notes say the following: "Links detection in notes across portals."
Hyperlinks (such as references to files in cloud storage for more complex projects) are not just needed for the VP, but especially for the PM in the Internal Instructions, as discussed in the original improvement idea here on UE.
I'm commenting this here because the 8.1 release notes page is locked for commenting. As said, more detailed release notes would be helpful. Thank you.
@Sancho The link detection works in CP and in VP. Currently in HP links are not "clickable" It will be available with the Markdown editor (v8.3)
I'll try to prepare more comprehensive information about the latest features.
@Marek: Regarding the announced improvement on the VP (confirming invoice amount), does this include the possibility to hide or remove the "Add new invoice" buttons for the individual jobs on the Jobs page, so that everything related to invoices is found in the Invoice section only?
@Sancho: I'm afraid not. This improvement concerns only the Invoice creation page. Fro now nothing will change on the Jobs page.
We're eager to start using these improved features. Do you have an update on the rollout?
This was due to be out mid November. Where are we?
Hi All
XTRF 8.2 is very close, hopefully, within a week we'll have a release.
