Hello all, This is my first post in this list. I need to upgrade an old version of OTRS, the problem is that we have KIX4OTRS plugin installed, and I can not upgrade to latest OTRS because KIX dependencies. What is for the KIX4OTRS plugin? Is there other similiar plugin to make the same function? Regards. -- Josu Lazkano

Pending reminder state behavior on OTRS 3.3
by Mellini Giovanni 12 Jan '15

12 Jan '15

Hi list, I need some clarification about the "pending reminder" behavior in OTRS 3.3 I need to understand when a ticket that is in a "pending reminder" state can exit from this state. I tried to find some hint on the online documentation at https://otrs.github.io/doc/manual/admin/3.3/en/html/index.html but found nothing. If a ticket is in a pending reminder state (expired or not) when someone sends an email (email-external input) the ticket goes to open state, and that's fine to me. But, if I want to change the state of the ticket as agent I cannot move it to an open state (or a different one). Nor internal-note or external-note added can change the ticket state. Is this the right behavior? How can I move from pending-reminder to open state without external input? Tks for your help, Giovanni -- Giovanni Mellini Funzione Security ENAV S.p.A.

MOTD in customer login?
by Lars Jørgensen 08 Jan '15

08 Jan '15

Hi, We would like to be able to give customers a status message if some major downtime is ocurring. When they login to OTRS it would be nice to let them know that "file server 1 is down, you don't need to create tickets to that effect". Also it would be nice is this message is displayed to users already logged in. I've spent some time trying to get MOTD to display via CustomerLogin.tt but my skills are obviously not up to the task. Is there an easy way to do this? Preferably the contents of the message should not come from a file on the filesystem but somehow be configurable from within OTRS. That last part is clearly in the nice-to-have category, though, and not a necessity. -- Lars

Re: [otrs] Create individual auto-ticket assignment based on email content

Thanks Gerald. With regard to manually filling in the fields, where/how is this done? In a ticket response dialog? Where do you activate a Dynamic ticket text field in the interface? Thank you!

Add the code in the otter hub post to activate the filter Questions: • The header from one of our vendors changes based on the type or response.

Queue view
by John Koch 07 Jan '15

07 Jan '15

Hello, Is it possible to have a queue which is a combined list, in chronological order, of all tickets in all queues. The purpose of this is to enable an agent working on multiple queues to work through all tickets in chronological order and be able to easily see tickets which are getting old, no matter which queue they arrived in. Thanks!

One email address - automatic filtering into queues
by Leah Kelly 07 Jan '15

07 Jan '15

Hello, We are wanting to be able to have tickets automatically funneled into a queue depending on which account manager owns the account. Currently, we have a queue ‘Client Services’ and each account manager is a sub-queue of this queue. So it looks like ‘Client Services: Cheri’, for example. We have individual email accounts for all the account managers currently, but are wanting to just use one email address ‘support(a)xxx.xn--com-to0a, and if the client account writing in belongs to Cheri, it would automatically go into her queue. What is the best way to accomplish this?

Create individual auto-ticket assignment based on email content

OTRS Time related functions and granularity of one hour for TimeWorkingHours
by Luca Maranzano 02 Jan '15

02 Jan '15

Hello All, is there any future plan to support a granularity of one minute (or something similar) for the TimeWorkingHours configration item? https://otrs.github.io/doc/manual/admin/stable/en/html/time.html When you have SLA in the order of 10-15 mintues related to business hours like 08:30 to 17:30 it is hard to configure them properly. Thanks in advance. Best regards, Luca
