Questions?

For classic projects.

It seems like a recent patch introduced a new behavior where empty language combinations are automatically deleted from the project when the last remaining language-dependent task is removed from that language combination.

Case:

If I create a class project with 10 target languages.

I then add task workflows for each target language.

Then at some point I had to delete the task workflows in order to change their workflows.

All 10 target language combinations are now automatically deleted when their tasks are deleted.

I would have to make sure to write down what my target languages were, and manually re-add them.

If the project was launched as a quote from the customer portal. I might have no records of what languages were requested from the quote.

XTRF support confirmed this is an intended behavior, but it didn't used to work like this.

Language combinations without tasks weren't automatically deleted in prior patches.

If XTRF intends to delete language combinations without tasks automatically, shouldn't it be made as an option that can be toggled on or off?

I also cannot find any documentation regarding this change. :(

Would it be possible to have external reviewers filling in LISA evaluations and getting those results automatically in the job in Classic Projects?

I think this will be interesting for all those companies with external reviewers working on Classic projects...

Any suggestions?? 

Hi,

We updated to XTRF 8.6 and now we can't drag and rop files into POs we send out to our vendors. Anyone else experiencing this problem? Or any other bug?

Kind regards,

Peter

We would like to create project templates in which the unchanging aspect were the client, the task instructions, and the reference, terminology or work files.

Can this be done in Classic Project?

Thanks.

Looking for best practices here. I know we can probably order a custom virtual column that would present the deadline and then have it colored in orange when the deadline is getting close and then turn red when the deadline is missed.

Curious to hear how all of you handle this.

Documents usually include 2 interconnected topics: marketing + another industry; legal + IT etc. 

Is this achievable by adding a custom field? 

Do you use different workflows for freelancers (translator job, editor job) versus agency (translator & editor job)?  We use agencies sometimes to help handle large volume.  I was wondering what other LSPs did in these circumstances in XTRF.

Does anyone already have a plan on how to deal with the issue of e-invoicing? From 2025 onwards, you will need the recipient's consent if you send a normal PDF invoice, just like the ones XTRF generates today.

Best regards

RestClient restClient = new RestClient();

Any help is highly appreciated.

Hello,

Is there a way to set up a notification to be sent for the jobs that were started, but not delivered yet = when the deadline date/time is overdue already? Notification should be sent to the Vendor or Project Manager, depending on the settings. It would also be great if some "margin" could be set up - for example 30 minutes after the deadline passed.

Thank you,

Jan
