We've not had to use email for incoming requests in the past, so bear with a faily new (and hopefully simple) question. We are now using the email output from a different system and trying to automate the ticket-creation process behind the scenes by parsing this email into a ticket. We had the other system's team alter their email output into something Remedy Email Engine friendly, but still are having problems.
I have a sample email message and am helping someone trying to get the engine to create a new record in the target table. Right now, messages just come into the Ar System Email Messages table and nothing else happens. According to the docs, we should be able to create (or query) records in existing tables (assuming we use the correct name), but when we called "tech support" (if you can call it that these days), they tried claiming you had to build filters to push data from the system table to the destination (sigh...gotta love it when folks don't even read their own manuals). I will include a sample message and if anyone can tell me what is missing or configured wrong in the text, I'd appreciate it. The "sender" is another program, so I don't really need to use a template, I'm sure all the info will be hard-coded directly in the message every time. Two things... 1. Yes, every required field will always be there, but I'm not including them on this email sample. 2. For brevity and confidentiality, field names are dumbed down and just a few listed. I'm looking for syntax/pattern help here... Finally, please submit replies to me directly at [EMAIL PROTECTED] (as well as the list). I don't normally use the email account I use for ARSList.
