Hello,

I think that freetext have the same goal as dynamic field in lastest version
As I understand they can be used to customize your installation

To be concrete, we use dynamic fields to allow customer to say, when submitting a ticket :
 'this ticket is private' or 'this ticket is a company ticket' I want to share it with other
After that , I develop a small piece of code to play with customerID of tickets having IsCompanyTicket (name of my dynamic field) set to true.
At the current time this 'piece of code' is run asynchronously (GenericAgent) but we can also trigger action using event

Hope this is helpful

Hi,

I'm a little bit confused about the use of the freetext fields.

I have read the documentation, activated the fields in sysconfig and now I am able to use the fields for my tickets.

But what for?
What is the sense of these fields? Can someone please give me a real world examples for how/why to use these fields?

Thanks!

Ralf
