Questions?

Can you customise the vendor status? E.g. at the moment we there is active, inactive, potential, etc.
Can I create new statuses or rename existing ones?

I looked pretty thoroughly but can't find any option to do so :-)

Hello,

Some of our jobs (especially certified translations) need to be delivered in a physical form (i.e. printed out), so we use local courier services or DHL/Fedex/etc. for local and national deliveries. I'm calling them "virtual vendors" here for lack of a better term, since they don't have any use for notifications and payment/invoicing is done outside of XTRF.

We would like to add steps for such jobs to have our financial ducks in a row :). The problem is that the system requires all clients to have a unique (?) email address and sends notifications once these jobs are started/missed, which is not ideal. Is there a way to disable notifications for certain Smart project jobs? Or is there is maybe a more obvious way to handle such jobs that we're not seeing?

Thanks in advance!

hello,

i try add payable using code below but always i have "Not Acceptable" error

RestClient restClient = new RestClient();
IRestRequest restRequest = new RestRequest("https://xtrf.com/home-api/projects/" + {my project ID} + "/finance/payables");
restRequest.AddHeader("X-AUTH-ACCESS-TOKEN", "My_TOKEN");
restRequest.AddHeader("Accept", "application/vnd.xtrf-v1+json;charset=UTF-8");
restRequest.AddJsonBody(
new
{
id= 0,
jobTypeId= 0,
languageCombination = new { sourceLanguageId = 1, targetLanguageId = 2 },
languageCombinationIdNumber= "string",
rateOrigin= "PRICE_PROFILE",
currencyId= 0,
total= 0,
invoiceId= "string",
type= "SIMPLE",
calculationUnitId= 0,
ignoreMinimumCharge= true,
minimumCharge= 0,
description= "string",
rate= 0,
quantity= 0,
jobId= jobsIds,
catLogFile= new {
name= "string",
url= "string",
content= "string",
token= "string"}

});


IRestResponse restResponse = restClient.Post(restRequest);

Any help is highly appreciated.

I am trying to connect to a database to call data from it using java syntax and it works fine on my machine but gives me " Invalid database address " when I try to use the same code in my macro in XTRF , what possibly could be the problem ? the code seems fine as it works on my machine but gives me errors on XTRF, does XTRF have special syntax I will have to follow in order to connect to a database ?

Thanks in advance

One of our vendors brought up that they were wondering if they could only receive the invoice/statement once the PO amount has reached a certain amount, to limit paperwork. I didn't think this was possible but wanted to check (or suggest). We work with different vendors varying amounts, so it wouldn't be practical to do this across the board, but could be useful for some who receive multiple POs/statements per month. As it is now, we have invoices set to go out the day after a project is closed, so, depending on how many projects were opened/closed at that time, multiple projects may be on the same invoice anyway. 

When I create a View in Projects, it is sorted correctly initially.
Afterwards, when I sort it by Project ID in ascending order and then back to descending order, the order of the projects is incorrect, e.g. it's sorted by the first digit . 

This seems to be irreversible. 

Dear XTRF team and community,

I love the Google Sheets XTRF Add-on, and it would be great if:

1. You add to the "Autorefresh" option the possibility of defining the frequency of autorefresh. Currently is every hour, and would be awsome if that value could be entered by the user, or at least having some options, like: every 1, 6, 12, 24, 72 hours.

2. Also, if possible, would like to learn what would be the ideal combination of API requests for recreating the behavior that the Add-on performs? I am needing to do this to customise a bit my use of it and would really appreciate your guidance in this.

Thanks!

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

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!

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?
