Free Field Visibility

Post by tupson »

Greetings,

We are big on ensuring our tickets have the appropriate "Type (Free Field)" selected when categorizing the ticket type for new tickets (when dealing with reporting). Is there a way to make this option more visible on the default ticket menu, verses having to go into Miscellaneous to select it from a drop down list?

Also, is there a way to enforce the ticket engineer to select a Type; versus simply accepting the (General) Type the system defaults to. We find that ticket owners forget to modify this; since the option isn't visible without having to go and find it, and we have to go in and manually update them to reflect the correct locations periodically.

Hey there,

you can probably play around with the module registration:
Syslog -> Ticket::Frontend::MenuModule###310-FreeText
And change the parameters there. You could copy from another module, but maybe it suffices to remove the ClusterName and ClusterPriority entries.
Currently using: OTRS 6.0.14 -- MariaDB -- Ubuntu 16 LTS

BINGO! That did the trick. I was able to disable/enable/modify the sections we commonly use. Also, removing the ClusterName and ClusterPriority did in fact remove it from being within a drop-down option as well. Thank you.
