The vendor then logs into the system, downloads files, and confirms the job by pressing on the corresponding button in their interface.

Note: If the vendor is assigned to other jobs with cross dates, the system will warn you about that when you press the "Start job" button. For more info, please see the Vendor availability page.

Note: The job which has payables linked with invoices cannot be deleted unless you delete the linked invoices first.

Payables to vendor

Use this section to enter how much you are going to pay to your vendor.

To add a new payable, press "New payable" and select the type of the payable you want to add:

• "Flat rate"—if you just need to enter the amount of a payable without entering volumes and rates.

• "Unit based"—if you have to enter the volume and rate for calculating the price.

• "CAT log based"—if you have fuzzy matches logs generated by CAT tools and want to calculate discounts for each type of match.

It will open the New payable page where you can enter the necessary data.

Each payable can be cloned and deleted by clicking corresponding buttons.

Also, you may update the payable by clicking the "Update" button in the receivable row.

It will open the Update payable page. If the job status is not "Draft", the vendor will be notified about payables changes by email.

Note: If the payable is included in a vendor invoice, it cannot be deleted or edited unless you delete the invoice first.

Please see more info on vendor payables here.

Job input files

In this section you can view the list of files included in this job.

The vendor gets these files through their interface, downloads them to his computer and works on them.

You can download each file by clicking its name, and you can download all the files at once by clicking "Download as ZIP":

If you want to change the list of files assigned to this job, press Manage input files.

Job output files

In this section you can view translated files or links to files delivered by your vendor.

If you have any additional files for adding, you may upload these files or add links to the files by clicking "Upload" or "Add URLs" correspondingly.

You may also delete uploaded files and links by pushing the "Delete" button.

You can download each file individually by clicking on its name, or you may download all the files at once by clicking "Download as ZIP".

Note: The job output files which are input files for for another jobs cannot be deleted.

But if you need to delete such a file, please go to the related job by clicking on its code:

Then unlink this file using the "Manage input files" option.

After that, you'll be able to delete this file.

Free of charge job

If you are not going to pay for this job, you may mark it as free of charge.

To do this, you need to go to the job page and press "Update":

Mark the "Free of charge" checkbox and confirm in with the "Update" button:

It will hide the Payables to vendor section, and you won’t be able to enter payables. You can revert it by unmarking the "Free of charge" checkbox.

Note: The "Free of charge" status is made to differentiate free jobs from those where you just forgot to enter payable.

Thus, you will easily find jobs with missing payables. If the job is "Free of charge", then it has no missing payables.
