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...

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...
