Hi,

OTRS does not have a VIP User Database in standard tables.

I'm not able to find some fields displayed on the edit customer page in the database.(for e.g. VIP User field)
Does it mean that OTRS does not store these values in the database, but displayed directly from LDAP?

It is just a plaintext field that holds the value -True or false.

It turns out that the field is not stored in the database anywhere and it populated directly from the LDAP.
However, it is not clear how this functionality is handled.

You answered your own question related to the topic of this thread. (ie, Where does VIP store? It doesn't. it's sourced from LDAP.)

Then you asked how does it get displayed on the front end?
If it's in the map, it displays, unless it doesn't display and you're trying to find out why it doesn't and then we're not understanding the bigger question:
What are you trying to accomplish with the answers you're getting from this thread?

Ah..ok!That is what you meant!
What I wish to understand is if it does not store the value in the database and directly displays it from the LDAP, how is this functionality achieved?
There must be a code somewhere to display this on the front end, right?
That would just complete the understanding of this functionality.


But you are right, my primary question has been answered and I'll leave the complete understanding for some other day.
