Hello List,
I want to implement a feature that allows you on resolving a ticket to choose if you want to send a resolved-email.
I was looking around and found in the WIKI a howto to use Transaction Custom Fields, but it has drawbacks:
- you see the fields on every transaction
- for it to work you HAVE to create a final resolve-comment because it won’t record a transaction if you do not enter one, and there is this behavior of RT that you cannot use transaction custom fields in scripts, so you need a completed transaction beforehand (Is this right?)
Another solution I could think of would be to add a new state, like resolved and resolvedSilent, but this is very ugly:
- first I do not know if the core depends on resolved as a final state anywhere
- second you have to be aware of this when creating reports
- third and foremost, resolved is a single-state, it shouldn’t be misused to represent a Flow-decision.
To implement it like, for example, the working hours which you can set at resolve-time, would be to much work for me especially as I do not know squad about the internals of RT and it would take a time to learn it …
Has anyone else a solution which would fit fine and does not confuse my users?
thanks for your time,
best
Raimund
