Excellent suggestion! This is how I ended up doing it and Operations is testing
it now.
I created a custom field named "Last Reopened Date" and applied that to the
Queues I care about.
I then added this scrip to the queues in question.
Description: On Reopen Set Date
Condition: User Defined
Action: User Defined
Template: Global template: Blank
Stage: Transactioncreate
Custom Condition:
my $txn = $self->TransactionObj;
my $type = $txn->Type;
unless (
($type eq "Status") ||
($type eq 'Set' && $txn->Field eq 'Status') ||
($txn->OldValue eq "resolved") ||
($txn->OldValue eq "stalled") ||
($txn->NewValue eq "open") ||
($txn->Data eq 'Ticket auto-opened on incoming correspondence')
) {
return 0;
}
return 1;
Custom action cleanup code:
my $Ticket = $self->TicketObj;
my $CFName = 'Last Reopened Date';
my $CF = RT::CustomField->new( $RT::SystemUser );
$CF->LoadByNameAndQueue( Name => $CFName, Queue => $Ticket->Queue );
my @date = localtime(time());
my $year = $date[5] += 1900 ;
my $month = $date[4] += 1 ;
my $day = $date[3] ;
my $date_stamp = "$year-$month-$day";
$Ticket->AddCustomFieldValue( Field => $CF, Value => $date_stamp);
return 1;
Based on my quick testing here this works perfectly.

Your join between Tickets and Transactions is wrong. Transactions also apply
to objects other than tickets, so you need to limit by ObjectType too not just
ObjectId.
(The query is also not quite what you want because it will miss tickets which
are currently Status != 'open' but were auto-opened at some point earlier in
the time frame.)
To solve your problem using RT's normal customization routes, I suggest
extending the default auto-open scrip (user-defined action) to set a DateTime
custom field on the ticket when it fires. This greatly simplifies your search
and lets you run it in RT from the web.
Your report can then be a standard RT saved search used in a chart or a
dashboard.
