Notification to customer on move event

Hi, This should be really simple, but I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. I want to send a notification to the customer when her ticket is moved to a specific queue. 1. I have created a new event in "Admin -> Notifications (Event)". 2. In "Events" I have selected "TicketQueueUpdate". 3. In "Ticket Filter" I have selected the queue, that the ticket will be moved into. 4. In "Recipient" I have selected "Customer". 5. Finally, in "Notification" I have just entered "test" in both subject and text. When I move the ticket into the queue selected in (3) above, nothing happens. Do I need to enable something? We're on OTRS 3.3.7 -- Lars

Why? If you did this by way of paper, would you send a snail mail envelope
to the customer telling her you changed folders?

No. But that's beside the point. We have some queues where tickets can end up taking a lot of time. These queues are for the evaluation and prioritizing of tickets regarding problems that can't be immediately solved but might require development resources (or might even be rejected). We want customers to know when their ticket has entered one of the queues, so they know that they can't expect a solution immediately. Is that possible? Lars

I guess. But is the mere act of assigning the queue sufficiently repeatable
that you don't want to explain this concept in a reply and just change
queues separately?

Yes, it happens a bit. We're not a high volume site, but gets around 50-70 support tickets each day. I think one or two of them are moved into the evaluation queues, and the people responsible for doing it requested the automatic customer notification. As far as I can see OTRS supports this. I just can't make it work. Any hints? Lars

To do what you need use Notification event and chose Customer as
destination for your especific event.

That’s exactly what I did: 1. I have created a new event in "Admin -> Notifications (Event)". 2. In "Events" I have selected "TicketQueueUpdate". 3. In "Ticket Filter" I have selected the queue, that the ticket will be moved into. 4. In "Recipient" I have selected "Customer". 5. Finally, in "Notification" I have just entered "test" in both subject and text. It just doesn’t work. Does it work for you? -- Lars
