[rt-users] Custom Fields in Scripts and Templates

[Kenneth Crocker]

To "Whomever",

I use this code for user-defined "conditions" on Transactions:

my $trans = $self->TransactionObj;
my $ticket = $self->TicketObj;

if  ($trans->Type eq 'CustomField')
    {my $cf = new RT::CustomField($RT::SystemUser);
        $cf->LoadByName(Queue => $ticket->QueueObj->id,
         Name => "Review Process");
     return 0 unless $cf->id;
     if  ($trans->Field == $cf->id &&
          $trans->NewValue eq "Review Complete-Approved")
          {
           return 1;
          }
    }

return 0;

And I use this code for getting the value of a Custom Field from a ticket:

my $cf_value = $ticket->FirstCustomFieldValue('name of CF');

And I use this code to get that same value into a Template:

QA Approved by: {$Ticket->FirstCustomFieldValue('QA Approver')}

Hope this helps.
