Importing new rate cards will not affect costs that have already been generated in active projects in XTM Cloud. If you generate new costs in projects after importing rate cards, these costs will naturally be based on the new rate cards. So what matters is when you generate costs in your projects.
We recommend that you deactivate existing rate cards before import. The rate card import tool will not work if you try to import rate cards that have duplicate settings (the same language, subject matter, and workflow step).
Is there any way that a Linguist can export a report that lists the time they have manually logged in previous projects?

How to generate a PO (Purchase Order) that would exclude XTM Cloud jobs with full TM leveraging?
Sometimes, it It might sometimes happen that in a newly created XTM Cloud project containing multiple jobs, one of the them jobs will receive full TM leveraging (ICE matches), which usually makes all the segments in XTM Workbench auto-propagated, and a that specific job is finished in an instant.
...
The Suppose the vendor assigned to this job makes use of such rate card factors as, for example, minimum charge or fixed price per project/language, which . This might only generate redundant costs.
...
The first way is to create and assign the so-called dummy user (or dummy assignee) who does not have any rate cards configured, or has one ones with all values set to “0”, to this specific workflow step (Project Editor → Workflow).
...
To mark a particular user as a dummy user, go to the user’s settings → General → General info, and select the Dummy user for cost generation checkbox.
...

Keep in mind that once you have assigned such dummy user to a fully leveraged workflow step, you do not necessarily have to use the Dummy assignee field, and you can generate costs straightaway. This is because the steps with full TM leveraging will be charged in accordance with the dummy assignee’s rating. If, however, you would like to use the mentioned field, you should first unassign the affected vendor from a particular workflow step and leave it as it isvacant. Then, going back to the Estimates → Costs tab, select a relevant dummy user from the dropdown and make sure to select where no assignment from the second dropdown. In this way, you will also ensure that those empty workflow steps will be charged in accordance with the dummy assignee’s rating. |

Next, go to your XTM Cloud project and go to a specific source file, to which that workflow you want to make changes , since you to. You can perform workflow adjustments at the level of individual file [Project Editor → Workflow → (select a target language) → (select a file) → (click on the context menu) → Change workflow / due dates].
...
In the Workflow Editor for this particular file, you can decide which workflow step will be subject to chargecharging, by selecting the Chargeable checkbox under a relevant step.
...
In this way, you will ensure that the workflow steps in question will not be incorporated in the PO costs.
