Auto-creating a 'dependant' ticket On Transaction

Hi All,

I’m definitely an RT novice, and could use some assistance. I have a ticket
Custom Field (“Progress”). It is a Select One Value field. When someone
selects the value “Sent”, I want a new ticket created that is ‘depended on
by’ the original ticket. Can anyone help me with this please? I’m
desperate!

Thanks!

P.S. If the new ticket could automatically have an owner assigned upon
creation as well, that would be ideal. But the above request is definitely
priority.

Hi,
try the following from wiki (with tiny code changes)

Condition: Userdefined (
CustomConditionSnippets - Request Tracker Wiki)
Action: CreateTickets
Template: CreateNewTicket (follow the Approval Ticket creation Template Page
from wiki, replace type: approval with type: ticket)

This should work fine2009/11/25 jrummel jrummel@imapp.com

Hello jrummel,

From novice to novice, try a Scrip with something like:

  1. Condition: as in OnCustomFieldValueChange (see wiki);
  2. Action: User-defined, based upon DivideTicketIntoSubtasks (see
    wiki):

my $trans = $self->TransactionObj;
my $tkt = $self->TicketObj;

my $requestors = [ $tkt->Requestors->MemberEmailAddresses];
my $new_tkt = RT::Ticket->new($RT::SystemUser);
my ($id, $msg) = $new_tkt->Create(
Queue => “your-queue-name-goes-here”,
Subject => $tkt->Subject,
Status => ‘new’,
Requestor => $requestors,
DependedOnBy => $tkt->Id)

return 1;

Hi,
carefull with this. This condition will trigger whenever a customfield values changes, and i thing you need this only when a special CF is changed to a special value!

Thank you all so much! This is definitely getting me closer to what I want.
Is there any way you could help dumb-it-down a little more for my benefit
please? And to clarify a little, I don’t want this to happen On Create,
only when my CF “Progress” is changed to “Send” in a ticket that already
exists. Is the following correct (or close)? If not, could you please make
corrections?:

CONDITION: User Defined
ACTION: User Defined
TEMPLATE: Global Template: Blank
STAGE: TransactionCreate

CUSTOM CONDITION:

if ($self->TicketObj->FirstCustomFieldValue(‘Progress’) eq ‘Send’) {
return 1;
}
return 0;

CUSTOM ACTION PREPARATION CODE:

return 1;

CUSTOM ACTION CLEANUP CODE: (this is where I think I’m messing up)

my $trans = $self->TransactionObj;
my $tkt = $self->TicketObj;

my $requestors = [ $tkt->Requestors->MemberEmailAddresses];
my $new_tkt = RT::Ticket->new($RT::SystemUser); my ($id, $msg) =
$new_tkt->Create(
Queue => “Data Analysis”,
Subject => $tkt->Subject,
Status => ‘new’,
Requestor => $requestors,
DependedOnBy => $tkt->Id)

return 1;

I know that the Custom Condition works, but the Action doesn’t seem to be
working. Any help would greatly be appreciated. Thanks again!

Gabriele,

It works perfectly! Thanks! That’s just what I needed!

Do you have any idea how to refer to a Custom Field within the newly created
ticket? Ex:

$new_tkt->Create(
Queue => “Data Analysis”,
Subject => $tkt->Subject,
Status => ‘new’,
CUSTOM FIELD => “VALUE”, <== (what’s the proper syntax here for setting
the new ticket’s cf value?)
Requestor => $requestors,
DependedOnBy => $tkt->Id);

Thanks again!

Hi Jonathan,

After the code for creation of dependent ticket,

my $new_tkt = RT::Ticket->new($RT::SystemUser); my ($id, $msg) =
$new_tkt->Create(
Queue => “Data Analysis”,
Subject => $tkt->Subject,
Status => ‘new’,
Requestor => $requestors,
DependedOnBy => $tkt->Id);

Try to add something like this one:

my $CFName = “Your CF NAME goes here”;
my $ValueToAssign = “Your VALUE goes here”;
my $RecTransaction = 1;
my $QueueObj = $new_tkt->QueueObj;
my $CFObj = RT::CustomField->new( $QueueObj->CurrentUser );
$CFObj->LoadByName( Name => $CFName);
my( $id, $msg ) = $new_tkt->AddCustomFieldValue(
Field => $CFObj->id,
Value => $ValueToAssign,
RecordTransaction => $RecTransaction );

Hope it helps, Sorry but I have no time to test it…
Gabriele
