I have exactly the same problem (which don't help you). I also
tried the stalled method, but in "production" it's not a good
solution. I thought about a search like "give me all tickets where last
transaction is not from owner or system" but I failed to put this in
TicketSql, maybe somebody on the listy has an idea.

or maybe configure a customfield (lastUpdateBy: owner,other), and then 
write a scrip which alter the customfield on every correspond, depending
if the sender is equal the owner or not.
Afterward you can define a simple search where lastUpdatedBy="other"
I think I will try this the next days

reagrds!

Thanks.  It's an interesting idea, but I'm not sure that it makes the  
most sense because it requires extra action by the lowest paid  
people.  Unless I could automatically reset the state appropriately...

Not exactly what you are looking for, but I set the status to stalled
when I am waiting for input from the user.  Then the default global
script:

  On Correspond Open Tickets with template Blank 

will open the ticket again when the user (or anybody else) responds
normally (as opposed to responding with a comment).

A canned search for open tickets sorted by last updated time should
bubble it to the top of the list. I have such a bookmarked search
running as my status display every 10 minutes or so.

[rt-users] tracking tickets which have been replied to?

2009-02-11 Thread Jo Rhett
Okay, this is so obvious of a requirement in a ticket system that I've  
been spinning in circles assuming I'm overlooking something.  However,  
I haven't found it, so could someone please clue me in how to do this?

Ticket opened by a customer - needs response
Ticket replied to by helpdesk - has been handled
Ticket replied to by a customer - needs response again

Unfortunately, I see nothing in RT which will highlight that message  
and bring it up on anyone's screen as needing action.  Yes, an e-mail  
will go out.  But I'm looking for the following kind of things:

1. If not responded to within a given period, unassign from owner and/ 
or escalate in some visible fashion

2. Bring it to the top of everyone's list as needing action.

I'm guessing that the solution will rely on something like this:

A) A global script to lower priority on Comment or Correspondence (or  
Resolve) below a certain number
B) A global script to raise priority on update from customer above  
that certain number
C) An rt-crontool script to annoy people about priority > certain  
number unanswered tickets

Has anyone else already run down this road?
