[otrs] Ldap as customer user backend

2011-12-20 Thread Fiorenza Meini
Hi there,
I configured my Otrs to work with two customer user backends: the first one is 
on mysql db, the second on Ldap directory.
In the Admin panel - Customer Management, I can see both backend, but it 
seems that the connection to Ldap server is not working (I tried to do a 
search on ldap DB, but I cannot find any connection request on my Ldap 
Server).

In the dashboard, when I open a just arrived ticket, I cannot find  any search 
request on the Ldap server...to fill the section, on the right sight of the 
panel, about Customer information.

Is there a priority  between both customer user backend?

I see this error on /var/log/messages:
[Error][Kernel::System::CustomerUser::LDAP::new][Line:110]: Need CustomerUser-
CustomerKey in Kernel/Config.pm

Thanks and regards

Re: [otrs] Postmaster filters - custom headers?

2011-12-20 Thread Renée Bäcker
Hi,

can you describe more detailed what you want to achieve?

As long as you write your own PostMaster filter module, you can set/use
all headers you want. Standard OTRS can handle only the headers set in
the SysConfig.

 Hi,

 If I want to use a custom header to set a value in OTRS, can I use
 X-OTRS-TicketValue1?

 If not, would it break things if I'd use the X-OTRS-SLA header value
 and modify it using a posmaster filter?

 Thanks,

 Ugo

I want to set the SLA automatically by adding a specific header. 
However, when I try using the X-OTRS-SLA header, I get an encoding 
problem (see here: 
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.otrs.user/36117).  So I have 3 
choices:


- Fix that issue (up to now: no success)
- Set something like X-OTRS-SLA:1 and then convert it into my real SLA 
using a postmaster filter (would that work?)
- Use an intermediate header, so I would set X-OTRS-CUSTOM1:1, then set 
X-OTRS-SLA to the label that corresponds to my SLA 1.


I currently have a working solution, where my Outlook AddIn adds SLA:1 
at the bottom of a message when people choose SLA 1 in the form, but I 
wanted to avoiding adding text to the message and use headers directly.


Thanks,

Ugo

[otrs] make state waiting for invisible in day-to-day work

2011-12-20 Thread Susan Dittmar
Hi folks,

I am rather new to OTRS, so please bear with me.

With the tickets in our company, workflow often includes times when a
ticket is in some kind of suspended state, usually waiting for a customer
to react. During that time, my collegues would prefer for those tickets to
neither appear in the queue overview (AgentQueueView) nor in the agent's
ticket overview (AgentMailbox). Fine with me, as long as they really do use
the search tool to make sure those tickets will not be completely forgotten ;-)

But -- how can I have those tickets not shown in the mentioned two
overviews? And how can I make sure a mail by the customer makes them
visible again? Any ideas as to how to archieve that are welcome.

Thanks in advance,

Susan Dittmar

PS: We are using OTRS 1.3, in case that matters. Very old, I know, but my
attempts at updating did not work yet. That's a different matter
though...

Re: [otrs] Company/Customer - addition of levels.

 Hi list,

 I've been looking a bit at the Company/Customer part in OTRS.
 I'd like to add a level or two, I think. Not sure how else to implement.

 As far as I understand, the Customer part is the end-user that may or
 may not have access to the customer web-interface.
 And Companies let me group multiple customers under the same Company, and
 potentially all company tickets.

 So, building on that understanding, let's say I wanted to do something
 like this:

 Company1 / Site1 / Customer1
 Company1 / Site1 / Customer2

 Company1 / Site2 / Customer2
 Company1 / Site2 / Customer3

 Company1 / Site3 / Customer1

 In this case I'm using sites. It could also have been Sub-Contractors or
 similar.

 Do I have any built-in ways of accomplishing this?
 I know OTRS can do all kinds of things just by fiddling around in
 sysconfig, but I'm not quite sure what to look for.

 I'd like to use both internal and external customer databases.

 Currently I'm thinking about pulling the Site part back as a queue, but
 I just see a potential queue/customer/group/agent management nightmare
 coming up. :)
 I think I've seen a few similar requests, but not with a definitive
 answer, so I dare to ask again.

 Thanks for any input...

I'd like to add an additional method to the one Matthew P. described.  We
do something similar using the Customer_User table as described under Customer
with multiple IDs (Company tickets) here in the manual:

http://doc.otrs.org/3.0/en/html/customer-user-backend.html

In our case we have two different needs implementing this.  In one
scenario, a company manager has responsibility for multiple sites - when he
logs into the customer portal, he wants to see tickets for all the sites
under his purview.

We set up each site as a separate CustomerID in the customer_company table,
then set up multiple CustomerIDs as described in the linked section of the
manual above, adding fields to the customer_user table which allow one
customer_user to view all tickets from any of the companies for which he
has an additional customerID populated.

Another scenario where this works is in the case of a group of associated
companies - an owner of one company has a stake in several others and wants
to be able to view tickets for all the companies he has a management
interest in.  The same technique can be used.

We decided on using a naming convention in our customerID of a leading
letter which corresponds to the type of entity followed by a one -up five
digit identifier.  It would be easy to simply decide on a convention of
that type, perhaps adding a suffix to the customerID, or you could add
additional fields if desired.  For our purposes we simply decided to call
new sites separate companies and use the customerID naming convention to
identify sites or associated companies.

As Matthew also said, this is but one of many ways to address the need.  It
seemed to us to be the simplest, requiring the least amount of
customization to OTRS.

Do you need Ticket-Details only or even Article content?

You need to click on “Add to CAB” after select the customer/agent cab member.

 Also what is importance of having CAB in change management,i mean i don't see 
 any approval for CAB.If you have tried this please let know

There is no CAB approval function in the current version of OTRS ITSM.
You might implement this by using several Change-Workorders.

 Hello all,



 Has anyone run into the problem of getting an Internal Server when
 completing the install of OTRS 3.1B2?



 Right after testing the mail setup, which is successful in my case,
 the error comes up and the setup does not complete.    If I then login
 to the system, it is still appearing to be in install mode.



 If I click on Admin and then Customer Company and try to add a
 Customer Company, the Internal Server error again comes up.



 Any ideas??



 Thanks much in advance,

[otrs-de] Rechnungsstellung mit OTRS

2011-12-20 Thread sven . ehret
Hallo Liste,

wir machen in OTRS unsere Rechnungsstellung und berechnen nur geschlossene 
Tickets. Dazu suchen wir alle Tickets mit Status „[…] geschlossen“, die 
innerhalb des letzten Monats geschlossen wurden (Screenshot):



Die resultierende CSV-Liste wird dann nach Kunden sortiert.

Das Problem ist nun, dass Tickets monatsübergreifend mehrfach geschlossen 
werden können und dann also die verbuchte Zeit zwei Mal verbucht werden 
kann.

Hat dafür jemand eine Lösung oder Tip? Gibt es Zusatzprodukte?

Danke und beste Grüße

Sven Ehret

Ich würde entweder ein Flag an dem Ticket setzten (FreiText- oder Zeit Feld), 
das Ticket nach Rechnungsstellung verschieben oder aber (admin task) 
archivieren (damit aus der “normalen” Suche ausgeschlossen). Eine Kombi ist 
natürlich ist auch möglich.
