Both solutions sounds good. The second one would be the more generic solution. But on other side the first solution (own link -=> own/new OTRS module) would be the better one for you because you can add some thing like a customer address book for lookups on external databases... (improved workflow). But it would be a module just (more or less) for you. -=> Anyway, I would prefer the generic solution (Response Management). What do you think? If you need a specific OTRS module for your business/ environment (e. g. with specific lookups in other databases, LDAP trees, ...), we (or other companies) can code this (for money :). > Again, THX for your great work.
