Re: [otrs] associate customer to company?

Marco, yes, I agree with you. :) I don't know if it applies to the original request (associate customers with companies), but it does allow reducing queues for customers, potentially using the groups as "companies". As I think about it, in 3.0, one may be able to send a Notification (Event) to an entire group, and as far as I can tell, this is the only specific way OTRS can send any correspondence to an entire customer company, if all the customers of a company are members of that group.

I don't really want to suggest that because of the reasons stated in the link I provided in the forums. (Briefly: customers of the same company may NOT need to know what other customers have submitted (the Company Tickets tab can give a customer that access for tickets that have the same customer_id (company) as the customer).

It is not possible for you to arrange customer<->groups and manage different group for different queue ?

This is another conf method, do you agree ?

But a department head/manager may very well need to see tickets submitted

for his company (see customer_ids).
