RE: [otrs] Set default of "Answered?" to Yes?
Tyler, thanks so much for your detailed information. As I don't want tickets that have *just* been created to have the answered = 1 I believe the option of changing AgentCompose.pm makes more sense. I've located the following lines and will list a couple of ways in which I have attempted to change them. I've seen absolutely no change in the operation of the AgentCompose screen. Perhaps you can offer a quick pointer or two? Original: # set answerd $Self->{TicketObject}->TicketSetAnswered( TicketID => $Self->{TicketID}, UserID => $Self->{UserID}, Answered => $GetParam{Answered} || 0, ); I've tried changing the 'Answered' line in the following ways (Sorry about my COMPLETE ignorance regarding perl programming) Answered => '1' || 0, Answered => '8' || 0, (a non-zero and non-one value) Answered => 1 || 0, Answered => 0 || 1, Etc...

Yes, but not throw DB. I'd probably add it to the system version of GenericAgent and it would look something like this: 'AssignOwnerCompter' => { Queue => 'Computer', States => ['new', 'open'], Locks => ['unlock'], New => { Locks => 'lock', Owner => 'someone', } } then make your cron run GenericAgent.pl every 1 minute or something like it. > I'm worried that users will be > frustrated if they see a new ticket before GenericAgent has > changed the > ownership.

You could possibly do this by hacking and slashing the Postmaster program some.. hm.. or possibly hacking Postmaster so it understands another "header" like "X-OTRS-Agent" and make procmail(or any filter soft) set the X-OTRS-Queue and X-OTRS-Agent via that..

Hi again, Thanks for your help. I've created a new GenericAgent job called "AssignOwnershipComputer", and configured it as you suggest. I run into a couple of problems, though. First, after I create the job, I get the message " 6 Tickets affected! You really want to use this job?". There's no "Yes" button or anything similar to click. What should I do? I went to the GenericAgent job list and saw that the job was there, so I clicked "Run Now!" to see what happened.

RE: [otrs] Set default of "Answered?" to Yes?
These aren't the "thank you" messages. The ticket still needs some type of further action and can't be closed just yet. What I usually do to clear the escalation view is re-assign the owner. The users will be trained on the proper use of the "answered" field (to prevent escalation), but setting the default to "Yes" will mean that they only have to change it to "No" in the rare circumstance that a they DO want a ticket to escalate if they don't respond. As I said earlier, we really only want ticket escalation of new tickets. - Pete McDonnell Manager, Technical Services Hip Interactive > -Original Message- > From: N.R.

RE: [otrs] Set default of "Answered?" to Yes?
We're seeing tickets needlessly escalate. Example, an agent replies to a ticket. The customer then responds. Agent doesn't have any new information or any need to reply so ignores the ticket. Ticket soon escalates and blocks all other agents' (who are monitoring the same queue) 'QueueView' display with a ticket that need not have escalated. Basically, we ONLY want to have unanswered tickets escalate. The lock timeout will nag the agent who has been assigned a ticket to follow up with the user. Am I incorrect in any of the logical flow in my statements? Thanks VERY much for digging through the code, Tyler!

The first one is filled with the ticket sender email, and the second as well. Problem is : I can't find what the "Search Customer" button does... I would like it to find a real customer (ie a proper customer id, if I understood well) from that email. Thank you for your answer.

Daniel Balan wrote: It is true that this Yes or No doesn't affect the system search or stats, but what is its purpose? In dependence of the related queue setting unanswered tickets are unlocked (taken away from agent) and go back to the queue where another agent could deal with them. I do not think that OTRS team implemented something without a reason. Unfortunately the documentation doesn't include any references to this issue.

Because it should first be assigned (locked) to owner and after timeout released to queue. That is the way how it was in earlier versions. Thanks for hint anyways!
