Re: [otrs] Queue View and Ticket Owner

2009-04-16 Thread Frans Stekelenburg
Jim,

You already received some good feedback.

According your scenario as described, OTRS works straight forward to the way 
you desire:

A 'servicedesk QUEUE' that receives all the cases (possibly also tier-2 
reassign back to this Queue), and from there MOVING (reassigning, changing) to 
the proper specialist queue (tier-2).  I think move/assigning to queue will 
have the desired outcome (no need I think to have a "group agent" to set 
ownership to (by default), but still this IS an option).

You are, as far as I can see, facing some issues with functionality as 
"locking" and "ownership". A few tweaks may come in handy.


Locking
---
The functionality has been previously explained. There are a few settings you 
could tweak to your needs however. Even to view _always_ the 'locked' state 
tickets, however this would blur the overview on cases actually needing action 
from someone- in queue view! There is a script, by the way, to unlock tickets 
automatically (can be scheduled as needed).


You can set the following options, that I think may help you in fine tuning to 
your needs:

As Admin in sysconfig under 'Ticket -> Core::Ticket'

 # Ticket::EventModulePost###1-ForceStateChangeOnLock: 
 #   Ticket event module to force a new ticket state after lock action.
 #   As key you have to define the current state and the next state as
 #   content after lock action.

Sets it from 'new' to 'open' by default

 # Ticket::EventModulePost###1-ForceOwnerResetOnMove: 
 #   Ticket event module to reset and unlock the owner if ticket gets moved to 
another queue.

Probably you already have set this - I think you need to!

 # Ticket::EventModulePost###99-ForceUnlockOnMove: 
 #   Ticket event module to force tickets to be unlocked after moving to 
another queue.
This also.

 # Ticket::ViewableLocks: 
 #  Viewable locks. Default: unlock, tmp_lock.
What tickets show up in overviews. Like I said before, I would not add locked 
here...
To get a better overview, better use StateView (explained later) or search, or 
template search.

 # Ticket::UnlockStateType: 
 #  The states for unlocked tickets.
 #  You can unlock tickets with the script "bin/UnlockTickets.pl".
This relates to the script that unlockes (as desired; hourly, daily?)


Perhaps also useful:

 # Ticket::ViewableStateType: 
 # State types for a ticket to display.


Your queue owners should I think see open or new cases, and assign them 
accordingly.
If not agents themselves can take ownership (default scenario)



StatusView
--
A very handy button to add next to QueueView, which by default is OFF.
Set under SysConfig:  Ticket -> Frontend::Agent::ModuleRegistration

  # Frontend::Module###AgentTicketStatusView: 
  #  Frontend module registration for the AgentTicketStatusView
  #  object in the agent interface.
  #  Ticket -> Frontend::Agent::Ticket::ViewStatus


Search with templates
-
A function also not automatically set, but useful to us:
Under   Ticket -> Frontend::Agent::NavBarModule

   # Frontend::NavBarModule###1-Ticket::TicketSearchProfile: 
   #  Agent interface module to access search profiles via nav bar.


Moving
--
You likely have configured the agent/user profiles who can move_into, or not.
You could change the default Move/Change to button behavior:

  # Ticket::Frontend::MoveType: 
  # The queue selection can be shown in a dropdown list or in a new window.
  # If "New Window" is set you can add a move note to the ticket.

The position of the button/function is odd (and it shifts down).
I am still looking into a way to have this button removed, or moved to the 
default action bar. Moving to a queue could also be done through let's say a 
'Note' action.



ACL
---
For a certain restriction in workflow, not standard handled by OTRS you may 
want to look into the ACL functionality (e.g. 'Close' not an option in tier-2 
queues, Move or possible queues to move to limited to customers, agents 
etc.)

Re: [otrs] Queue View and Ticket Owner

2009-04-15 Thread James Burk
Hello Marco.  I apologize if I have over simplified your question.  But
this is how my organization creates and work tickets with OTRS.

Our organization has decided that tier 1 (service desk) and tier 2
(advanced support groups) are Agents in OTRS.  All of these Agents are
assigned to Groups, and each Group is associated with a similarly named
Queue.  Our service desk receives calls from users, as most
organizations do, and SD uses client interface  Phone-ticket to create
tickets.  When they understand what Service is failing they select that.
 We have the Services associated with the support Groups/Queue.  The SD
selects the Queue from the "To" field.  After all the pertinent
information is completed they Create and an email notification goes to
the user and to the Group to whom the ticket was assigned.  The tier 2
support Group then assigns to a particular Agent within the Group and
they resolve the ticket.

As I think you know OTRS is also capable of accepting email from users,
and then filters them into the proper Queue.  We have decided not to
implement that capability at this time.

Best regards,

Jim

Re: [otrs] Queue View and Ticket Owner

2009-04-14 Thread Leonardo Certuche
One of the clients my company has deployed OTRS::ITSM to, wanted to have
control over all tickets, even the locked ones. Since
Ticket::Frontend::AgentTicketOwner###RequiredLock set to NO did NOT do the
trick, we decided to use a cron job to unlock all tickets once in awhile:

*/10 * * * * perl /opt/otrs/bin/UnlockTickets.pl --all > /dev/null 2>&1

Hope it somehow helps.

Re: [otrs] Queue View and Ticket Owner

2009-04-14 Thread James Burk
Thank you Marco.

In our installation we have a rule that the Service Desk assigns
tickets only at the Group level, not the Agent level.  That way "Queue
Monitors" for the Groups can then assign to the Agents and begin the
work in progress.  As OTRS by default assigns the ticket creator as the
owner unless explicitly assigned, how will the queue monitors be able to
view the ticket in order to assign?  Yes, they will get a notification
that a ticket has been assigned to their group, but they won't be able
to view the queue.  Am I still missing something?

Best regards,

Jim

Re: [otrs] Queue View and Ticket Owner

2009-04-14 Thread Marco Vannini
this is the manner that tickets are managed by otrs. It means that a
ticket is in "work in progress" by the agent that has taken it.

Listed in the browse windows mean that ticket are not owned by anyone
("waiting to be worked") so not still in "wip" state

Re: [otrs] Queue View and Ticket Owner

2009-04-14 Thread Greg Pennell - HSA Global
James,

I think this is working as designed.  The queue view only displays unlocked 
tickets by default (if the owner is set I believe the ticket is locked to that 
agent.  However when you are in the queue view you are able to display all 
tickets - just above the "My Queues" link there is a line that says "Tickets 
shown. All Tickets xx"  The xx is a link which should display all tickets 
locked and unlocked which are in your My Queues

Thank you Leonardo.  You seem to be the only one in the community who
will answer my questions.

It seems, however, the Agent must be the Owner of the ticket for it to
show up in the Queue.  Does this seem reasonable?
For example I have a group called security test group and an associated
queue, security test queue.  There are two agents in the group, myself
and a colleague.  When I create a ticket and by default the Owner is me,
I can view the ticket.  When I create a ticket and assign Ownership to
my colleague, I cannot see the ticket in the Queue.  I can search and
find it, but it is not visible in the queue for me.

Curious, eh?

Regards,

Jim

Hi there,

Go to index.pl?Action=AdminUserGroup and associate each User(Agent) to
Groups. Then go to index.pl?Action=AdminQueue and associate each queue
to a
Group. When an user has access over a group, he will also have access
to the
queue associated to that group.

[otrs] Queue View and Ticket Owner

2009-04-14 Thread James Burk
Hello all.  

I've implemented OTRS ITSM 1.2.3.  I've come across a situation I can't 
explain.  It seems that only the Owner of a Ticket can see that Ticket in the 
Queue View.  I want all Agents in the Group assigned to a Queue to be able to 
view those Tickets whether they are Owner or not.  How do I do this?

Thanks and best regards,

Jim
