Collaborati - INTERNAL: Null or System Error

  1. Last updated
  2. Save as PDF

Usually this indicates a technical error occurred during the time that the invoice was retrieved by the client's system.  The client's system did not know how to process the invoice and thus it was rejected.  It is difficult to find information from the Collaborati side to indicate the reason behind the error.  

Use the following process:

Ask the vendor for a PDF of the rejected invoice.

Reach out to the client directly. 

Hello CLIENT,
We have been contacted by NAME from VENDOR.  It seems there was an error in TeamConnect when the vendor submitted their invoice.  We would like your assistance to investigate.  Let us know if you are available for a meeting with TeamConnect Support to investigate. 

If the Client Billing Contact is a single person, address that person in the Greeting.  If the client Billing Contact has a group email, address the group, such as CNA team or Apple Legal Billing Help. 

Replace the words in all CAPITAL letters with the correct information.  For example:

Hello Kathleen,  We have been contacted by Michelle from Dentons. 

If the Client uses eCounsel or another system, replace the words TeamConnect with the correct name.  Check the Client Profile page in Collaborati to see which system they use.  The Client Type field on the right side of the page will show which system they use: 

CSM (TeamConnect)/Lawtrac/eCounsel/LawManager

Transfer the case:

Once the client replies, the Case Owner should be changed to the appropriate support team's queue.

  • If the case is for a TeamConnect client, transfer the case to TeamConnect Queue, so that the case can be assigned to a TeamConnect Support Engineer.
  • If the case is for an eCounsel client, transfer the case to eCounsel/Secretariat Queue, so that the case can be assigned to an eCounsel Support Engineer.
  • If the case is for a Lawtrac client, transfer the case to Lawtrac Queue, so that the case can be assigned to Lawtrac Support Engineer.
  • If the case is for a LawManager client, transfer the case to LawManager Queue, so that the case can be assigned to a LawManager Engineer.

Include a Case Comment with the invoice rejection comment and the date/time the invoice was rejected (find this in the History). Add another Case Comment with the following instructions: The other Support team should review the logs from the date/time stamp in the History OR if the logs are not available from the date/time of the invoice rejection, the other Support team and Collaborati Support should work with the client and vendor to resubmit the invoice to capture the logs.

Be available to work with the other Support team regarding questions about Collaborati.
