That handles creating the users.<br>
<br>As for multi department, I would suggest using separate queues and not seperate rt instances to divide up the work. Each queue can have a custom workflow and custom scrip actions.<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br>

<p class="MsoNormal">I have installed RT as a test in hopes of eventually replacing our home-built ticketing system soon-ish. I have RT installed and have a basic configuration that allows anyone in our AD to login. For the moment there is an RT “root” user

in my group. I can easily imagine that over time other departments/groups in the facility may want their own RT services. Are there docs that can tell me what to do now to prepare for multi-department use? Should each unit have their own install & config?
Can one instance service multiple units with undoubtedly unique needs?<u></u><u></u></span></p>
