Customer editing with own details?

Post by dnmvisser »

Hi

When a customer logs in, there seems to be no way for him to edit his details, such as name, e-mail address, phone number, etc.
Under Preferences there are only these three options:

Interface language
Ticket overview
Number of displayed tickets


Have I overlooked some setting? Or is it not possible at all?

Thanks!!!

The reason why I'm asking is that with our SSO set-up, it can sometimes happen that one or more of (firstname,lastname,email) are incorrectly configured.
In this case the user should be able to edit these.

Many thanks

If the source is read only (for instance, Active Directory), then you'll want to edit there.
OTRS 6.0.x (private/testing/public) on Linux with MySQL database.

Our source of users is being created on the fly as the user logs in, so it's not possible to "edit" that (in lack of a better term).
There is no central place where users are stored or anything.
At login time it becomes clear that a specific user doesn't have an e-mail address for instance.

We have several other web applications that use the same authentication, whereby Apache + mod_auth_mellon provides the initial values for username (always available), firstname/lastname/email (either valid, or dummies).
When a user logins in and sees that his name is the string "First_name Last_name", and his email "invalid_email", he can then edit this himself.
So I'm looking for that sort of functionality in OTRS. Intuitively this would be located at the Preferences page.
