Anyone having issues with Google Sheets add-on?

Chris Phillips 2 years ago in Something Else updated by Jose Uribe 2 years ago 5

All my sheets are asking for a new token and it won't let me save. Must be due to a recent Chrome update?

XTRF tag for adding client PO number in OpenPDF templates

grigori 2 years ago in Something Else updated by Marta Wilk (XTRF Technical Project Manager) 2 years ago 3

Hello,

I'm trying to find a way to add the client PO number to our invoices based on the OpenPDF templates.

The OpenPDF client invoice template is almost identical to the BIRT4 template, except for the PO number.

I checked the XTRF tags tree and am unable to find the tag I need.


How to I add this variable?


Thanks!

How to 'update' vendors when introducing a new specialisation to the system?

Thijs Senten 2 years ago in Something Else 0

I'm basically looking for best practices here. From time to time there is the need to add a new specialization to our list. Of course, since it's new, no vendors in our database will have that specialization registered, even though perhaps are capable of working in that field.

What could be a good way of handling this? Should I send out surveys/update requests periodically to all vendors? How do you deal with this?

Query Management

Joanna Russell 4 years ago in Something Else updated by mark 4 years ago 5

Hi,

I was wondering how you handle query management and if anybody has built/used a layer over XTRF? I'm specifically interested in cases where query volumes are unmanageable for solutions such as simple gsheets. Have you found any off-the-shelf solutions or built something from scratch? 

Thanks in advance

Whatsapp API — Anyone?

Adrián Flores 4 years ago in Something Else updated 4 years ago 2

Hello, folks.

I have been thinking lately about automating the vendor selection process though XTRF. The built-in feature works great, the only problem is that not many people receive email notifications in real time or check their email frequently (at least not frequently enough to accept an offer). Our PMs simply contact vendors through WhatsApp and present the offer to them. So, the WhatsApp Business API seemed like an interesting idea.

Has anyone thought about using it? How do you guys go about the process of contacting and assigning vendors to your projects?

XTRF: Is integrating WhatsApp to the vendor selection process a possibility? Maybe a custom integration?

Thanks.

Receivables export

Hi!

I would like to find out how to export the items in the receivables tab in Smart projects. We would like to see the following information per project: number of words, rate per word, language combinations; and would like to be able to see it in a line per project being able to filter by different date ranges, so that we can see that information of all projects conducted within a specific time frame with one line per project.

Does anyone know how to do this?

Thanks!

Quote request form doesn't show Belarusian localization

Dennis Rosenbaum 5 years ago in Something Else updated 5 years ago 2

I am trying to localize the Quote Request form. Currently we would like to add the Belarusian (be or bel) as the locale, but when added, the page shows blank.


Regular url: https://cat2.s.xtrf.eu/qrf/#/quote/request

German url: https://cat2.s.xtrf.eu/qrf/#/quote/request?locale=de

Belarusian url: https://cat2.s.xtrf.eu/qrf/#/quote/request?locale=be

I think this is a bug. Or am I doing something wrong?

XTRF Summit - Everyday Risk Management

Marcin Jakubowski 5 years ago in Something Else updated by mark 5 years ago 5

I have been asked to carry out the Friday presentation about "Everyday Risk Management - Data and Business Continuity" at XTRF Summit.

I'm a maintenance manager at XTRF, responsible for our Cloud infrastructure and ISO 27001 compliance. I though that instead of sharing our "success story", as it is often done on such events, I could address your actual issues.

Do you have any questions for me? Are there any particular issues related to this topic that I should discuss? What would you like to hear about?

New/AT = Automatic Translation ?

Laura Jimenez 5 years ago in Something Else updated by Marek Joniec (XTRF Product Manager) 5 years ago 2

Hello,


is someone having issues with this fields?

it appears in all our quotes and project confirmation and we have to delete it manually or explain to the client that we are not using machine translation without his consent.

Would you remove AT from the CAT grids?

Answer

Yes, this is because of the new analysis grid in Studio 2017+. You need to modify the templates.
