Re: Is it possible to trace IMAP/IMAPS communication?

Hi Crythias, I was suspicious of that we could be hammering the server too, but since I could access the account from another mail client in the exactly same time that OTRS wasn't, I rule it out. Anyway we will be moving to a local exchange in two weeks. Regarding your suggestion ,by network trace m...

Hi Reene, Actually I was having this issue with any stat generation, no matter wich filter or criteria used. However (due to other reasons) we performed an "fresh install" of OTRS and now everything is fine. I assumed I did something wrong on the former setup. Thanks in advance, Eric. As w...

Re: Is it possoble to manually set an escalation time?

Ok, thanks! There is no behavior. And apparently, Generic Agent doesn't allow to test for TicketFreeTime*, either. A module could be designed to account for that, though. Also, SolutionTime and UpdateTime (if I recall correctly) are calculated based upon actions performed within OTRS. If you want to...

Is it possoble to manually set an escalation time?

Hi Folks,

Is it possible to create a queue where each ticket have it's "solution time" and "update time" sets manually by agents? That would made easy for an agent to follow-up tickets that relies on third-party/external workers.

Thanks in advance,

Eric.

Re: Can OTRS have customers from AD without being User objec

Hi Ferrosti,

Thanks!! Adjusting the CustomerKey made the trick! For the record, I first tried to map CustomerKey to ObjectGUID but it seems that some the value may have invalid characters so I ended using the mail as CustomerKey and all went well.

Best regards,

Eric
