[rt-users] Request Resolve approval customization?

[Ken Crocker]

Mike,

For us, our owners ARE the ones that work on a ticket and "resolve" it 
when it is complete. We also have added a couple new ticket status 
values (pending QA & QA approvd) that allow us to write scrips to send 
notifications when those tickets get those values. When the Owner 
changes the values to "pending QA" a notification is sent out to the QA 
tester who then tests and later does a "Reply" to the ticket from that 
Email to say whether the test passed or failed. If it passed, the ticket 
history shows that notification and now the owner can resolve the 
ticket. Anyway, that's how we do it. I'm sure you could write a scrip 
using a Custom Field or something to send out a notice or automatically 
"resolve" the ticket.
