Hi Roman, The [PostMaster Filter] is the best option available, before starting to do complicated things. The simpelest is similar like we have in use (one of our partners send tickets as '##1234##'):
Wildcard matching with regexp like features is necessary, probably need some testing. The [***] as result is what you then need. Add Postmaster filter: Match Header 1: Subject, Value: ##([0-9]{3,6})## Header 2: From, value: EMAILADDRESS:serv...@someorganisation.inc Set: Header 1: X-OTRS-TicketKey1, Value: CustomerReference Header 2: X-OTRS-TicketValue1, Value: [***] Header 3: X-OTRS-Queue, Value: <SOMEORG queue> Further more you have options available like, let the other party send to a special e-mail address, have them send their ticket ID in a (OTRS) header variable, filter form fixed values in the body etc. etc. gr, Frans > -----Original Message----- > From: otrs-boun...@otrs.org [mailto:otrs-boun...@otrs.org] On Behalf Of > brainstorm > Sent: donderdag 30 april 2009 13:37 > To: otrs@otrs.org > Subject: [otrs] Merging tickets from other ticketing systems > > Hi ppl, > > I'm sure that this is answered somewhere in the ML archives, but I > wasn't able to find it though :-/ > > The issue is simple, but before jumping on writing a custom OTRS > plugin I want to be sure that the functionality isn't already on > mainline OTRS. > > We cooperate with other organizations but they use RT or others.
