Currently we have set up a test system to evaluate und configure the OTRS HelpDesk. Target is a worldwide release for our Service Desks incl Customer SelfDesk. So right now we are playing a lot around, trying to get it configured according our needs.
Situation:
- on the one hand there are CUSTOMERS, on the second hand there are (CUSTOMER) COMPANIES
- for BOTH I can set the "CustomerID" when creating them.....without any restrictions
- for 2 CUSTOMERS I have set the same "CustomerID"
- for one COMPANY I have set the same "CustomerID"
- If I search a ticket using the "CustomerID" I will find tickets created by both CUSTOMERS
- If checking a ticket it will display as "Customer Information" the data of the CUSTOMER
- Both customers with the same "CustomerID" using the costomer frontend can see all tickets created by both of them (company tickets)
- Where and when - for gods sake - does the COMPANY information ever play a role?
- When checking a ticket, I can never ever figure out which COMPANY the CUSTOMER belongs to?
- Sorry guys....I am searching at the moment for the missing link between CUSTOMER and COMPANY ....how is it related?
