Hi,
is it somehow possible to set the current ticket state as default in the dropdown menu of the customer interface ticket "Reply"?
We've several open-states and the customer should be able to close tickets by himself.
"Ticket::Frontend::CustomerTicketZoom###StateDefault" is set to "in progress" but if the ticket state is still "new" and the customer sends a reply it'll change to the default "in progress" state.
Setting the default state to "-" (none) - while keeping the current state in the background upon reply - and just providing the closed states would also be an alternative.
Could this be done in "/opt/otrs/Custom/Kernel/Modules/CustomerTicketZoom.pm"?
cheers,
Joe

This isn't supposed to happen. "new" is "new" until agent communicates with customer. Can you verify this in history logs?JoeFoster wrote:but if the ticket state is still "new" and the customer sends a reply it'll change to the default "in progress" state. (underline added)

Re: Ticket state after customer reply
It's also in the history, yes.
FollowUp FollowUp for [ ]. Zoom view Admin OTRS 03/05/2014 17:24:44
StateUpdate Old: "new" New: "in progress" Zoom view Admin OTRS 03/05/2014 17:24:44
This also happens if the ticket - for example - has the state "in progress external", the state is changed to "in progess" on customer reply as it's the default state set in the dropdown

That's why I'm wondering if this behavior could be changedcrythias wrote:because it is, then it is.JoeFoster wrote:as it's the default state set in the dropdown

Either by providing the current ticket state as default selection in the dropdown or "-" ("none" as in other dropdowns) and therefor keeping the state already set.
-> Like it's handled when an Agent adds a note

Unfortunately that's not possible - at least via SysConfig GUI.
It's falling back to a default value upon "Update" when the field is left blank.

Hi, did you figure out a way around that? I'm still trying to search for a way to keep the last state of the ticket after that the Customer replies.JoeFoster wrote:Unfortunately that's not possible - at least via SysConfig GUI.
