Hi Deepen,
It is exactly as Robert says: you cannot stop time.
Without getting into some kind of meta-discussion, the question is how do
you define 'Age'? In the case of the Customer ticket overview it is
nothing
more than the difference between the creation time of the ticket and the
moment it's status is displayed. The ticket age is not something that is
being kept track of in the database so it is not something that you can
'start' or 'stop'.
If you insist on showing closed tickets to the customer the only
suggestion
I could give you is to display something like 'Not applicable' in the
ticket
status table when the ticket is closed (IMHO age is not of any interest
anymore when the ticket is closed anyway). You can do something like this
in
Kernel::Output::HTML::Customer in the CustomerStatusViewTable routine.
Change line:
$Param{Age} = $Self->CustomerAge(Age => $Param{Age}, Space => ' ') || 0;
To something like:
  if ($Param{State} =~ /[Cc]lose/) {
      $Param{Age} = 'N/A';
  }
  else {
      $Param{Age} = $Self->CustomerAge(Age => $Param{Age}, Space => ' ') || 0;
  }
Of course this is a rather crude way as it depends on the actual name of
the
ticket state that may vary depending on your configuration. Also sorting
on
the age will look rather strange, as it will still sort on the actual age
value.
If you want to show the 'real' age (whatever that may mean of course.. :)
),
you would need to calculate the difference between the time of creation of
the ticket and the time it is closed. You can get that from the
ticket_history table, but this requires quite some digging into the code
and
you need to be very careful not to interfere with other parts of the
system.
Good luck,
Tom

You can't stop that. Time is unstopable.

how to remove age from first page of customer.
Have a look in the responsible files: in
