Owner list not fully populated under Phone-Ticket

When creating a ticket under "Phone-Ticket", after choosing the queue, the list of owners in the pulldown does not reflect the full list of possible ticket owners. Strangely, it lists _some_ of them, but not all. I noticed another post about this some time ago, but no satisfactory resolution. (I am using OTRS 1.3.1.)

Just klick on >>all<< and you will see them all!

While this is a work-around, it seems like you are requiring an extra (and unnecessary) click for every ticket created through the PhoneView. Is the PhoneView really supposed to work this way?

I don't know the rationale behind the behavior, but I can tell you why you see some but not all of the agents in the owner list unless you click all. You will see the names of agents that have subscribed to the chosen queue as a custom queue. If no one subscribes, there will be no names by default. If an additional name subscribes, then that name will appear on the list as well. To seel all of the agents, you have to click on all (as indicated by Sven). If I had to guess as to the rationale, I would say that it has to do with the idea that a subscribe agent is more likely to be an owner of a ticket than one that is not subscribe. So, just show the subscribed owners as default. If one of them do not fill the bill, provide and all option to show the rest. Hth, Tyler Hepworth
