Michael,<br><br>Several years ago we needed to convert some tickets from a "home" ticket system to RT. We did it via a perl program using the API. I'd have to search some of my old archives to find it, if you are interested.<br>

All,<br><br>I am wondering if anyone has successfully converted a database from another ticketing system to RT. I found a thread from 2008 about OTRS (<a href="http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/rt/users/81165" target="_blank">http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/rt/users/81165</a>) in which Jesse said that most people abandon their former ticketing systems to start fresh with RT. <br>
<br>In my case, I have about 1200 tickets that I would like to save currently living in a Support Center ticketing system by Quality Unit. If anyone has had success in converting a DB, and/or if there is any existing documentation I haven't found, please let me know. Also, if anyone has met with failure attempting to do something like this, I would appreciate your feedback, as well. I'd like to avoid wasted effort if it's not worth it in the long run.<br>
<br>Thanks,<br><br>Mike<br>
