Pending auto issue

Hello OTRS, A little issue about Pending tickets: A made a status: "Waiting for Customer Verification +" Status type=pending auto > this should close the ticket if the customer does not reply in x days. Here is a piece from the one ticket history : 1. SendAnswer Sent email to 'mail@customer.com'. x dan 02/17/2004 17:07:20 2. TimeAccounting 1 time unit(s) accounted. Now total 7 time unit(s) x dan 02/17/2004 17:07:21 3. StateUpdate Old: 'pending reminder' New: 'Waiting for Customer Verification +' x dan 02/17/2004 17:07:21 4. SetPendingTime Set Pending Time to 2004/02/22 17:06. - dan 02/17/2004 17:07:21 At that moment (2004/02/22 17:06) I was expecting the ticket to be closed, but today I have: Pending till: -1 day 23 hours So, OTRS is working for my new status like it is a pending reminder not a pending auto or am I wrong about the pending auto behavior. Regards, Daniel

You probably didn't set the following state in Config.pm: $Self->{StateAfterPending} = { 'pending auto close+' => 'closed successful', 'pending auto close-' => 'closed unsuccessful', 'Waiting for Customer Verification +' => 'closed successful', }; hth, Robert Kehl -- ((otrs.de)) :: OTRS GmbH :: Norsk-Data-Str. 1 :: 61352 Bad Homburg http://www.otrs.de/ :: Tel. +49 (0)6172 4832388

Hi Robert,
Wright.
But isn't this something that OTRS should set automatically ?

Daniel

Wright. But isn't this something that OTRS should set automatically ?
Well, it does - if you tell it to. Because of the flexibility arising from the state model it is merely not possible to fully automate it. What if the other day you decide to introduce a new tier, resulting in the tickets not being closed, but simply moved away, say to QM? You get the point...

Yes. OTRS should close this ticket (if StateAfterPending is so defined). The "bin/PendingJobs.pl" should do this close task (take care that this is in the crontab).
