order of priorities changed - how do i change coloring?
by Lars Monsees 24 Apr '07

24 Apr '07

Hi, I just re-ordered the priorities as described in http://www.mail-archive.com/otrs@otrs.org/msg01845.html Unfortunately, tickets with a priority of "very low" (former "very high") are marked (red column) as "very high". What do I have to change so that low priority tickets are not marked and high priorities are? Lars

Customer user backend - LDAP
by Paul Dulaba 20 Apr '07

20 Apr '07

I'm running OTRS 2.1.7 on a SLES 10 installation. I have LDAP authenitcation to eDirectory for Agent login, but I can't get the Customer user backend to work. I can run a trace on the LDAP server, and when I go to Customer and do a search, the request goes out, and the LDAP server responds, but OTRS doesn't display the results. There are no errors in the log either. There is no username/password required to bind to the LDAP server. Also of note. If I try to add a user manually, and the user exists in LDAP, I see another request go out, and then I get the error saying that the user already exists. So it seems like it is almost working......but something is missing. Here is the Config.pm section: $Self->{CustomerUser} = { Name => 'CS_JUST LDAP', Module => 'Kernel::System::CustomerUser::LDAP', Params => { # ldap host Host => '192.168.0.1', # ldap base dn BaseDN => ' ', # search scope (one|sub) SSCOPE => 'sub', # in case you want to add always one filter to each ldap query, use # this option. e. g. AlwaysFilter => '(mail=*)' or AlwaysFilter => '(objectclass=user)' AlwaysFilter => '', # if your frontend is e. g. iso-8859-1 and the charset of your # ldap server is utf-8, use this options (if not, ignore it) SourceCharset => 'utf-8', DestCharset => 'iso-8859-1', # Net::LDAP new params (if needed - for more info see perldoc Net::LDAP) Params => { port => 389, timeout => 120, async => 0, version => 3, sizelimit => 0, # disabling it }, }, # customer uniq id CustomerKey => 'uid', # customer # CustomerID => 'mail', CustomerUserListFields => ['cn', 'mail'], CustomerUserSearchFields => ['uid', 'cn'], CustomerUserSearchPrefix => '', CustomerUserSearchSuffix => '*', CustomerUserSearchListLimit => 1000, CustomerUserPostMasterSearchFields => ['mail'], CustomerUserNameFields => ['givenName', 'sn'], # show now own tickets in customer panel, CompanyTickets CustomerUserExcludePrimaryCustomerID => 0, # add a ldap filter for valid users (expert setting) # CustomerUserValidFilter => '(!(description=gesperrt))', # admin can't change customer preferences AdminSetPreferences => 0, Map => [ # note: Login, Email and CustomerID needed! # var, frontend, storage, shown (1=always,2=lite), required, storage-type, http-link, readonly #[ 'UserSalutation', 'Title', 'title', 1, 0, 'var', '', 0 ], [ 'UserFirstname', 'Firstname', 'givenName', 1, 1, 'var', '', 0 ], [ 'UserLastname', 'Lastname', 'sn', 1, 1, 'var', '', 0 ], [ 'UserLogin', 'Username', 'uid', 1, 1, 'var', '', 0 ], [ 'UserEmail', 'Email', 'mail', 1, 1, 'var', '', 0 ], [ 'UserCustomerID', 'CustomerID', 'mail', 0, 1, 'var', '', 0 ], #[ 'UserCustomerIDs', 'CustomerIDs', 'second_customer_ids', 1, 0, 'var', '', 0 ], [ 'UserPhone', 'Phone', 'telephonenumber', 1, 0, 'var', '', 0 ], #[ 'UserAddress', 'Address', 'postaladdress', 1, 0, 'var', '', 0 ], #[ 'UserComment', 'Comment', 'description', 1, 0, 'var', '', 0 ], ], };

SOAP for ticket-creation within company-intranet
by Alexander Scholler 20 Apr '07

20 Apr '07

Hi, thanks all the responders of "faster ticket-creation", especially Jeff for his screenshot. I think some special form outside OTRS inside the companies intranet is really a good way for standarized tickets on special issues. All responders told to create special mails out of the forms and treat them with postmaster-filters within OTRS. This is surely a good working solution. I now think about a agent creating a ticket within the company-intranet. It would be nice if after sending the form, he would be asked if he wants to switch over to OTRS to directly work on the ticket. So a online-communication between intranet-form-pages and OTRS is necessary. As much as I know SOAP would be fine for this. * creating online the ticket with SOAP * receiving back the ticket-id * e.g. providing a link directly to the new ticket Is this the right approach - what do you think? I know how to extend scripts/soap-example.pl to call the OTRS-API-functions. But can anybody tell me which function exactly have to be called to create a ticket? It's not just TicketCreate, e.g. the article has also to be included etc... What about error-detection/-handling on SOAP? What if a ticket can be created, but in the following the article cannot be added due to an error? Bye, Alex #################################### Hi, We have 18 remote locations as well with 350+ users and have found that using our Intranet - as long as the data network is working this is the best way to go. We use (A - see attachement) with a cgi/perl script parsing the data from the form and then sending an email to support(a)xxxx.com and then the filters in OTRS send the ticket to the specified queue based on content in the "subject" line. We haven't programmed in any settings for priority but that could easily be done.

We will use the system for staff at our 18 sites and have already integrated with LDAP for authentication AND the customer data. I was thinking of either A. Creating some custom web forms that post a semi structured piece of text (or maybe use the free fields). B. Use our outlook forms (everyone has outlook 2003 and Exchange) and again post a semi structured piece of text. I am yet to find an example that I can then copy from. I have almost no Perl experience but can use PHP, Python and VB Script to various levels. Does anyone have an example of either A or B? Aaran -----Original Message----- From: otrs-bounces(a)otrs.org [mailto:otrs-bounces@otrs.org] On Behalf Of Alexander Scholler Sent: Thursday, 19 April 2007 3:34 PM To: User questions and discussions about OTRS.org Subject: [otrs] faster ticket-creation Hi, we want to be able to create ticket with standard-issues faster and with higher data-quality (standarized informations provided in the ticket) than in standard-OTRS. Normally, * the agent have to create a mail- or phone-ticket, must write down the issue as free text and must set - priority - queue - ... * the customer - have to open a web-ticket - write down the issue as free text - set priority etc... - have to write a mail and the agent has to set queue, priority, etc... Much work if you have to handle many tickets concerning some standard-issues like * data-restore-request * mail-account-creation * access-rights-modification * ... What is your suggestion how to optimize this? Of course, you can achieve optimization in using special mail-adresses for incoming mail-tickets and postmaster-filters to preset some values (like queue, priority, ...) But I think most potential would come out if you switch from free text written by the customer to a form-based ticket-creation through the customer. E.g. if he request a data-restore, he has to provide * the exact location of the files * the date of the file that should be restored * shall the present file be overriden or not * ...? How can these forms be achieved? Not so easy with the customer-webgui? It would be easier within the comanies intranet, but then the data has to be send to otrs in a special mail-format (with extensive usage of x-mailheaders for postmaster-filter, and the intranet-form must also care for customer-authentification.... Is this the right way you would also suggest? I would welcome spreading discussion on this issue. Bye, Alex p.s. There has been some posting previously about using faq-articles as ticket-creation-templates. Without thinking too much about this, I think this can only be some kind of solution for the agent creating the ticket. But if the customer shall create the ticket...
