We have a department that would like their own OTRS instance for managing student services requests. Is there anything special I'd need to do to create an additional instance of OTRS?

Re: [otrs] TicketFreeText not showing up on ticket form
by Robyn Warrington 28 Jan '10

This did the trick thanks so much!!! you can configure for each Ticket Action screen if and what free text fields you want to see/to use. Just go to "Admin" -> SysConfig -> Group: Ticket -> Sub Group: Frontend::Agent::Ticket::ViewPhoneNew -> TicketFreeText and define what free text fields you want to use. 0 = not used 1 = used 2 = used and required PS: See in Sub Group: Frontend::Agent::Ticket::View* for other screen settings. -----Original Message----- From: otrs-bounces(a)otrs.org [mailto:otrs-bounces@otrs.org] On Behalf Of otrs-request(a)otrs.org Sent: Thursday, January 28, 2010 2:14 PM To: otrs(a)otrs.org Subject: otrs Digest, Vol 16, Issue 147 Send otrs mailing list submissions to otrs(a)otrs.org To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit http://lists.otrs.org/cgi-bin/listinfo/otrs or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to otrs-request(a)otrs.org You can reach the person managing the list at otrs-owner(a)otrs.org When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of otrs digest..."

For this you need to assign "Responses" to "Queues". "Admin" -> "Responses <-> Queue", select your queue and assign min. one response to this queue. After that you will find at least one possible "Response" in Ticket Zoom view (right site, directly under the customer information). -Martin On 28.01.2010, at 19:02, Scott Carter wrote: > I?ve been putting in a lot of work replacing our homegrown ticketing system with OTRS and it has looked very good? until I realized one KEY thing missing! > > From what I have read it appears that there is no way to notify the customer after an agent updates the ticket!

To make the notifications more flexible (events, different attributes, different recipients, ...) this feature got dropped. Maybe we should also add customer attributes available in the notification event admin screen? So you would be able to create also notifications depending on customers language (or on other customer attributes like location, company or email address). Any comments? -Martin On 28.01.2010, at 20:07, Maur?cio Ramos wrote: > Hello, by a test using version 2.4.6, it seems that notifications configured through this feature ?Notification (Event)? do not take into account the language preference of the one that is going to receive the notification. I created 2 notifications like ?en::Customer::StateUpdate? and ?pt_BR::Customer::StateUpdate? and the result was that the customer (that had his language preference configured to pt_BR) received two notifications. Is this correct? Can be workarounded?

Re Digest message 4
by Robyn Warrington 28 Jan '10

I need to clearify. The Free text field doesn't show up on the New Ticket form not a new ticket. But I can see the free text fields 1 and 2 just not 3. I'm wondering, if you look at the steps I've given if I missed a step to make free text key 3 show up on new ticket form? Thanks for your assistance!

Does anyone know about a way of storing articles outside the main database? In the following thread http://www.mail-archive.com/otrs@otrs.org/msg21102.html, Dieter proposes to switch it to filesystem from configuration but I could not find it in SysConfig. Does anyone know where? Any help is much appreciated. Thanks in advance, Leonardo Certuche

TicketFreeText not showing up on new ticket form
by Robyn Warrington 28 Jan '10

28 Jan '10

I have created a free text field Equipment ID by going into SysConfig Ticket>Core::TicketFreeText and checking the box for TicketFreeKey3 and adding Equipment ID to field for Key and Content. Checked the box for TicketFreeKey3::Default Selection: and left field blank. Then went to Ticket>Frontend::Agent::Ticket::ViewFreeText and for Ticket::Frontend::AgentTicketFreeText###TicektFreeText: added a 1 in Content field for Key # 3. But the free field still doesn't show up on the New Ticket form. I have free text fields created for Key 1 and 2 and they show up fine then later added the key 3 did I miss a step or is there a script I can add somewhere to get this field to show up on a new ticket?

I have tried this upgrade procedure: 1. cat scripts/DBUpdate-to-2.4.mysql.sql | mysql -p -f -u root otrs 2. scripts/DBUpdate-to-2.4.pl 3. cat scripts/DBUpdate-to-2.4-post.mysql.sql | mysql -p -f -u root otrs Everything went smooth without any error or warning. But Finally I cannot login, because table Users is missing ( was not created in the old database shema after upgrade procedure ), maybe other things is missing too. Please advice. Thank you.
