Hi, I just saw very impressive demo of OTRS 3 available on otrs.org main page. They mention there about availability of alpha 3 on cvs. I went there, but the last branch is 2.5. Have you tried to get alpha 3? Maybe I missed something or it is not yet shared? Thanks in advance for your help Marek

Re: [otrs] Customer with multiple email addresses

Hi Nuno, If you have the alias stored in your Active Directory, which I'm sure you will, then you can just map this to the Customer ID field and you'd be good!

Link services to queue when making phone/e-mail ticket
by Ulrich Gøhns 01 Jul '10

01 Jul '10

Hello, In the agent module I want to be able to show different services based on what queue the agent picked when creating a phone- or e-mail ticket. Example: Agent picks the Service Desk queue => Services shows: Computer, Printer, Hardware, Network, etc, etc. Agent picks the Infrastructure queue => Services shows: Server, Network, Security, etc, etc. Is this possible? Regards, Ulrich

OTRS PostMaster Filter and Ticket Updates
by Siva Prasad 30 Jun '10

30 Jun '10

Hi All, My scenario is like this. I created a ticket in OTRS and after that If I'm going to receive any updates to that ticket by POP3 POstmaster, I want to create a post master filter where it adds the email as a note to the exisiting ticket rather than creating a new ticket for that. One of the OTRS members said that this will be possible if we have ticket number in the subject line but didnt said much about the Post Master filter creation. Can some one please let me know what are the rules I need to define to achieve this . HOW SHOULD THE POST MASTER FILTER SHOULD BE?? Thanks Siva Prasad

Inability to save tickets.
by McCarroll, Robert 30 Jun '10

30 Jun '10

Because most of my customers do not have an e-mail address, I changed Kernel/Config.pm such that the customer user list field parameters read: CustomerUserListFields => ['first_name', 'last_name'], and commented out the  block in our custom template. However, this resulted in OTRS refusing to save any tickets until I restored the customer user list fields to: CustomerUserListFields => ['first_name', 'last_name', 'email'], even though as I mentioned almost none of the customer users in my environment have an e-mail address. Is there a way to return to the "Firstname, Last name" customer user list field set (discrding the pointless e-mail field) and still save tickets in OTRS?

Re: [otrs] Default groups for customers authorized thru LDAP
by Steve Durbin 30 Jun '10

30 Jun '10

Dear <sergzas(a)pronet.ua> >We are using otrs to resolve incidents from external clients, and we are using Customer Groups feature. >Now we need to use OTRS for internal company's purpose, so every employee will auth using LDAP. >But i got problems with groups - i can't find a way to setup groups for customers authorized using LDAP. Without group customers >(company's employers) can't post incidents to internal queues. We achieved this with AD as the LDAP by changing the Config.pm to use extensionattribute4 in AD to hold the additional customers. However, it's a bit limited by the size of the attribute so you can only have a small number of customers grouped together, so may not work for you: 1) Change Config.pm $Self->{CustomerUser}->Map to have a line [ 'UserCustomerIDs', 'CustomerIDs', 'extensionAttribute4', 1, 0, 'var', '', 1 ], You can use any AD attribute here - we just happened to have this one free. 2) For each customer required, get the attribute you're using as the customer ID (email address here). 3) For Primary.Customer(a)bridgend.gov.uk who needs to see Subordinate.One(a)bridgend.gov.uk and Subordinate.Two(a)bridgend.gov.uk tickets, put these attributes into extensionattribute4. From Exchange Powershell (for example): set-mailbox Primary.Customer(a)bridgend.gov.uk -customattribute4:"Subordinate.One@bridgend.gov.uk;Subordinate.Two@bridgend.gov.uk" (note the semicolon separating the email addresses, and it's customattribute4 in this interface!). The customer can now use the "Company Tickets" button to see all tickets for the customers given. This should work immediately, but allow 15 minutes for AD replication in some busy times. -- Steve Durbin Group Manager: Applications Delivery/Cyfarwyddwr Grŵp: Trosglwyddo Rhaglenni Bridgend County Borough Council/Cyngor Bwrdeistref Sirol Pen-y-Bont ar Ogwr Tel/Rhif ffon: 01656 642113 Mob/ffon symudol: 07976 271559 Fax/Ffacs: 01656 642125 Web/We: http://www.bridgend.gov.uk Message: 2 Date: Wed, 30 Jun 2010 11:30:57 +0300 From: ?????? ??????? <sergzas(a)pronet.ua> Subject: [otrs] Default groups for customers authorized thru LDAP To: otrs(a)otrs.org Message-ID: <4C2B00C1.8050801(a)pronet.ua> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8; format=flowed Best regards. ------------------------------ Message: 3 Date: Wed, 30 Jun 2010 11:02:12 +0200 From: Marco Vannini <marco.vannini(a)gmail.com> Subject: [otrs] otrs for iPhone To: "User questions and discussions about OTRS." <otrs(a)otrs.org> Message-ID: <AANLkTimj3lNXEWtvDwxwGzt6acOD8lyH-dpjsunWdkZt(a)mail.gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" http://otrs.org/news/2010/otrs_app/ Really great !!! btw, waiting one for android soon ;)
