Run the TrafficLIVE Web Service

Run the TrafficLIVE web service to send and receive new records and update existing linked records between Vision and TrafficLIVE.

Prerequisites: You must complete all of the configuration setup described in the Deltek Vision TrafficLIVE Integration Technical Guide before you can run the TrafficLIVE web service to link records between Vision and TrafficLIVE.

To send and/or receive new records and/or synchronize fields that have changed in linked records between Vision and TrafficLIVE:

1. From Vision's Navigation menu, click Utilities > Advanced Utilities > TrafficLIVE Web Service.
2. In the Send to TrafficLIVE section of the General tab, select the type of new records from Vision to send to TrafficLIVE. You can select employees and/or organizations. You also specify whether to send all, or only certain, employees and/or organizations.
3. In the Receive from TrafficLIVE section of the General tab, select whether to have Vision receive projects/jobs and/or timesheets from TrafficLIVE.
   • For projects/jobs: In the Audit User field, enter the user name that you want to be listed on the Project Audit Detail report as the user who created the new projects/jobs that Vision receives from TrafficLIVE when the TrafficLIVE web service is run. This name will be used instead of the actual user who ran the TrafficLIVE web service job. For example, you could enter TrafficLIVE in this field so that the audit report identifies TrafficLIVE as the creator of project/job records imported into Vision from TrafficLIVE.
   • For timesheets: You select whether Vision will receive TrafficLIVE timesheets with a status of Signed Off or Ready for Export.
4. Select the Sync from Vision to TrafficLIVE check box on the General tab to update (synchronize) specific fields in TrafficLIVE for linked projects/jobs and/or employees that have been modified in Vision. Changes made to linked projects/jobs or employees in TrafficLIVE do not get updated in Vision during the synchronization.
5. If you selected the Sync from Vision to TrafficLIVE check box, in the Fields to Sync grid, specify the fields for project/job and/or employee records to update in TrafficLIVE.
6. On the toolbar of the TrafficLIVE Web Service form, click the Run or Schedule option to send, receive, and synchronize records between Vision and TrafficLIVE. You can manually run the process anytime by clicking Run. When you click Schedule, you can schedule the integration process to occur automatically at a future time or recurrent times.
