New page

We are trialling RT (currently v3.6.4) to help us manage job requests from our clients.

To make user management easier, all users are privileged (so the all show up in the user list without needing to search on %), but our logins related to our clients are "semi-privileged" in that they are being limited to the [[SelfService]] interface only via the autohandler modification mentioned on the [[AutoRedirectToSelfService]] page (ie clients don't have the [[OwnTicket]] right, but all staff do).

Each client has its own group and queue, and all logins for the client are only given access the their queue, with [[CreateTicket]], [[SeeQueue]], [[ShowTicket]] & [[ReplyTicket]] privileges only. The client users also are given [[ModifySelf]] privilege so they can change their password.

We have also modified the [[SelfService]] interface so that the Open Tickets and Closed Tickets pages show both the tickets that the particular user has created, plus a list of all of the tickets created by all logins for that client (ie all tickets in all the queues that particular user has [[ShowTicket]] rights on, which is only the queue for all tickets related to that client).

To achieve this, the following modification (admittedly not very elegant!) was made to html/[[SelfService]]/Elements/[[MyRequests]] (we also added a few formatting and sorting changes to the default template too):

<nowiki><&| /Widgets/TitleBox, title => $title &>
