It tracks by a user. Customers (often) have many users. This is (to me) the same thing as discussed in the "Customer Centric RT" thread recently. For instance, our customers may have several installations of our product, on various operating systems, with various backend databases. Rather than having to capture this data in every ticket, it would be much better to have it in an "Organization Record", that might include such things as the list of users authorized to open support tickets, an escalation path, people responsible for purchasing and so on. Realistically, this may best be handled by adding a User Custom Field that refers to an external customer information database. However, having all (or at least most) of that information on the ticket screen would be preferable, and being able to search for all tickets by all users for a certain customer is an absolute requirement. -Kelly > > > - Extended time tracking: start/stop tracking time against a ticket > > then report on time spent per customer > While it would be nice to see this integrated as part of a more robust > reporting > feature, we took matter into our own hands and wrote scripts which simply > use > the the RT API to gather the data needed, manipulate and format it and > email the > results to the powers that be. > > > > > Thanks. > > > > -- > > Tom Lanyon > > Systems Administrator > > NetSpot Pty Ltd ___ http://lists.bestpractical.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rt-users Community help: http://wiki.bestpractical.com Commercial support: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Discover RT's hidden secrets with RT Essentials from O'Reilly Media.

RE: [rt-users] RT State of the Onion?
The first one is a common requirement. We have a database with all of our customer details in it (ok, well, we have a db that nearly has all the stuff in it and some of it is even correct). We need to link a ticket to a customer record, not to a person who happens to have been employed by that customer at the time the defect was opened. Ideally Customers (which really means Companies that Have our products) would have "persons" as sub records. The idea is that a customer may have opened 10 tickets, but their contact information and details about what database they're running, what product(s) they are licensed for, what servers are located where, what hardware they're running on, are all things that a person reviewing a ticket needs access to, but you don't want to have to enter it for each ticket. With RT you can whip up some kind of url link or something, but there really needs to be a nice clean interface to some place where the above data is kept. -- Kelly F.

RE: [rt-users] RTx::Statistics
OK, Well, I've the current maintainer for the package, that's why I was asking. I'm (still) swamped at the moment, hopefully I'll have a chance to upgrade my test box to 3.6 next week, and can start taking a look at why it doesn't work. Most likely guess is the changes that made it use the same presentation logic for the tables as the search pages did. They may have changed quite a bit. -Kelly > -Original Message- > From: Mathew [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, July 17, 2006 10:25 PM > To: Kelly F.

RE: [rt-users] RTx::Statistics
The information that I had was that Statistics probably wouldn't be needed with RT 3.6 because of the built in reports, so I haven't done much with it so far. Of course, I don't have 3.6 running yet either, I've been swamped with a ton of other things.

The machine was recently upgraded from Rt3.0.(something) to RT3.4.1 with the proper database schema updates. Everything is running great. The way we performed the upgrade was to remove Apache and the previous version of RT, install the new RT and perform the schema updates. Everything is running GREAT. Now I am attempting to install RTx-Statistics 0.1.8 using this procedure: cut #Perl Makefile.PL Using RT configurations from /opt/rt3/lib/RT.pm: ./html => /opt/rt3/share/html ./lib => /opt/rt3/local/lib kfh: in RTx.pm sub RTx Writing Makefile for RTx::Statistics # make install Writing /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i686-linux/auto/RTx/Statistics/.packlist Appending installation info to /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/i686-linux/perllocal.pod # /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd restart cut That all looks good to me, the /opt/rt3 is correct and we are using site_perl5.8.8 But when I log into RT, I do not get the statistics side bar. Am I missing something obvious – like having to manually add it into the page or something? [Kelly F. Hickel] Hmm. Did you restart httpd? Oh, and I have also tried to simply un-tar the distribution subdirectories into /opt/rt3/ and /opt/rt3/share (this worked in my old version 3.0.x). [Kelly F. Hickel] Ohh, don’t do THAT.

RE: [rt-users] RTx::Statistics install issues (found a thread, but no resolution)
Paul, It looks like the files in rt3/share are from unpacking the archive directly, so I'd remove those listed below first. Then do an ls -l in /opt/rt3/share/html. I find that when I install statistics I do it as root, but my whole /opt/rt3 tree has to be owned by apache.apache. So, if the directories /opt/rt3/share/RTx, /opt/rt3/share/Callbacks and /opt/rt3/share/Callbacks/kStatistics (and all their children) aren't owned by the same user and group as the other directories in /opt/rt3/share, do a chown -R on the and try again.... -- Kelly F.

RE: [rt-users] RTx::Statistics install issues (found a thread, but no resolution)
Paul, You said that you're moving your RT from one server to another, was Statistics working before the move? Did you move it by installing as if a clean installation on the new server, or did you just copy /opt/rt3? You definitely should *not* just unpack the archive in /opt/rt3, follow the instructions in the README file to run make. Since you've unpacked the archive directly, if it was me, I'd remove /opt/rt3 and start over (since rt doesn't take that long to install). The errors that your seeing don't ring any bells with me as to what the problem is. -- Kelly F.

RE: [rt-users] mysql password problems
If you haven't explicitly set a mysql password for the root user, then there isn't one. Remove the '-p' from command line, and if you're logged in as root, you shouldn't even need the -u root. -- Kelly F.

RE: [rt-users] cc only kinda working
This is the default behavior. Clipped from /opt/rt3/etc/RT_Config.pm: # By default, RT doesn't notify the person who performs an update, as they # already know what they've done. If you'd like to change this behaviour, # Set $NotifyActor to 1 Set($NotifyActor, 0); NOTE: if you want to change this, add: Set($NotifyActor, 1); To /opt/rt3/etc/RT_SiteConfig.pm (don't ever change RT_Config.pm itself). -- Kelly F.

[rt-users] getting RT to work with mod_perl 2.0 (specifically on Centos 4) (updated wiki)
I just rebuild a box with the latest Centos and put RT on it. I ran into the usual problems with mod_perl 2.0, and didn’t remember how I solved it before, so I worked it out again. This time, I was smart enough to put it on the wiki! http://wiki.bestpractical.com/index.cgi?RPMInstall (incidentally, I used to be able to log into the wiki so that changes were flagged with my name, this time I couldn’t find a way to login. Does anyone know what’s up with that?) -- Kelly F.

[rt-users] Integrate RT and bugzilla?
We’re considering using RT for our developers for day to day task management. Our defect database would stay in bugzilla, so I’m looking for a way to integrate the two. I know that I can put links on RT tickets to link them to bugzilla tickets, but I’m hoping there’s some higher degree of integration possible. Has anyone got any experience with this? Google shows that people have been playing with this as far back as 2000, but I couldn’t find anything constructive for RT3, and the wiki has nothing…… -- Kelly F.
