GetSalesSplitsRaw

Reporting API: Extract project sales splits


API	Reporting API (raw extracts)
Endpoint	`POST https://app{server-number}.timelog.com/{account}/Service.asmx`
SOAPAction	`http://www.timelog.com/ws/tlp/v4_4/GetSalesSplitsRaw`
Content-Type	`text/xml; charset=utf-8`
Authentication	`siteCode`, `apiID` and `apiPassword` as the first three parameters. See Authentication
Changes data	No. Safe to retry.
Paging	No: the whole result comes in one response. Narrow it with the filters.

How it works

The ID attribute identifies the SPLIT and repeats for each salesperson. Unlike GetProjectsRaw, splits of project templates are included. This is commission-related data per employee for the whole account.

Parameters

Each parameter has one label: Required, Conditional (required depending on other values) or Optional. Send them in the order shown.

siteCodestring

Required

Your account's site code, from the Reporting API settings.

apiIDstring

Required

The Reporting API ID, from the Reporting API settings.

apiPasswordstring

The Reporting API password, from the Reporting API settings.

projectIDinteger

Required

customerIDinteger

Required

Project's customer. 0 = no filter.

projectManagerIDinteger

Required

0 = no filter.

Response

The result is an XML document inside GetSalesSplitsRawResult: a tlp:SalesSplits root with one tlp:SalesSplit element per record. Check the response format first: the same slot also carries the empty result and errors.

tlp:SalesSplitSalesSplitRaw[]

One element per record. Fields without a value are left out of the element, so treat every field as optional.

Example error

Wrong credentials, or a call over plain HTTP:

HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized
Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">

        </tlp:Errors>
      </GetSalesSplitsRawResult>
    </GetSalesSplitsRawResponse>
  </soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

Data and No rows are illustrative examples: the format follows the service's documented output, with made-up values (only one record shown). Access denied was recorded from a real call with wrong credentials (to GetCustomersShortList; every data method answers the same way).

Errors

The errors every method can return (access denied, operation failed, invalid request) are listed once in Responses and errors.

This method has no errors of its own beyond the shared ones.
