Questions?

I received an error message from XTRF while trying to add a customer through the XTRF API (POST /customers).

The error messages states: Field contains one or more of forbidden characters.

I found out that the company name may not contain a '>' character. Though I couldn't find any documentation of other forbidden characters. Can someone provide me a list of these forbidden characters?

Hi, 

it seems that there is no way of creating new receivables via API for the CLASSIC project? Or Im missing something in your documentation

Hi,

I'm trying to remove all the receivables through the API.
This is the process that I use:

1. Retrieve the Receivable ID's through a Macro (for my quote, it shows '461')
   

   #set($receivableIds = $utils.createNewArrayList())
   #foreach($quote in $list)#*
       *##foreach($task in $quote.tasks)#*
           *##foreach($receivable in $quote.getTaskFinance($task).getAllReceivables())#*
           *##set($temp = $receivableIds.add($receivable.id))#*
           *##end#*
       *##end
   #end
   #foreach($receivableId in $receivableIds)$receivableId,#end

2. Verify this result by checking the quote itself:
   

   onmouseover="xhp.task.receivables.open(461, true, false);"

3. Execute the API call
   

   DELETE /api/v2/quotes/4YTI6WVKGRE2ZLXJ5KG3GGAJ24/finance/receivables/461 HTTP/1.1

4. This fails with this message:
   

   {"status":400,"errorMessage":"No receivable with id: 461 for quote with id: 4759","detailedMessage":null}

When I add a regular receivable, it does work. Only with the CAT receivables it doesn't work.

Is it possible to be fixed? Or am I doing something wrong?

Kind regards,
Dennis Rosenbaum

I would like to have the possibility to know when quotes are deleted. There should be a 'quote_deleted' subscription available. 

The reason is that we use a secondary system and sync this with the XTRF state. When a quote is deleted in XTRF, it should also be deleted in the secondary system.

Or is there maybe another way to achieve this?

Hi! 

During the XTRF Summit, I was designated as a person that will showcase some of the XTRF connectivity with third-party tools, one of those is Google Data Studio (basically, better-looking reports).

I could try to use my experience to do so but I figured that maybe you have an idea for a few reports that would benefit from graphic display instead of just pure numbers. I would prefer to do it from PM point of view instead of management but I am open for suggestion. 

Best regards,

Hi I can't find any function in the API docs to add client invoice payments. But Xtrf and Quickbooks have an integration so it should be possible via code. Having this functionality would be great for us.

I would like to update the status of existing jobs in XTRF smart projects using the XTRF Home Portal API.

The API call requires a job ID, but I don't where to find this ID.

We are implementing the Subscription API. From documentation we see that "Subscriptions are automatically removed if they do not work".

I can imagine that our custom application we are developing will not always available (ie planned maintenance, lost internet connection).

How can we see which subscription status changes are missed? Is there a log table in XTRF? Or is there a queue, where we can 'refire' the missed call from XTRF?

Hello,

This question is for all those API developers:

Since the upgrade some function in our API code aren't working as they were:

1. Attach a file to a project/quote request.

2. New potential client - when we create a new potential client and then send the quote, we get a 403 error. Any idea why is this happening?

thank you in advance!

Michal.

Hello,

The dynamic fields corresponding to EU VAT disappeared in the new XTRF templates. While I can see a field with our company EU VAT –

(xtrfContext.getRootObject().getCustomer().getBranch().getCountrySpecificFiscalCodeValue() != "" ? reportContext.getMessage("pdf.eu_vat", reportContext.getLocale()) + " " + xtrfContext.getRootObject().getCustomer().getBranch().getCountrySpecificFiscalCodeValue() : "")

 – I would like to know there the XTRF BIRT expressions are stored. XTRF Knowledge base here at UserEcho seems not to cover this important issue.
