<div dir="ltr"><div>Hi all,<br></div>I'm planning to add a "type" field globally. Initially, this will be a list containing "discussion", "problem", and, maybe, "critical issue". What I'm wondering, though, is whether the selection of a value from this list can do anything? That is, could selecting "discussion" force the priority to 0, while "critical" would force it to 40? I hope so, so I can add a "severity" dropdown list, letting users select from five importance levels and not worry about--or mis-type--the actual number.<br><br>Could I use this field in searches, like "type:problem"? What else can custom fields do, if anything, or are they really only for searching and letting users see details the default RT doesn't include?<br><div><div><br><div><div>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div>Alex Hall<br></div>Automatic Distributors, IT department<br></div><a href="mailto:ahall@autodist.com" target="_blank">ahall@autodist.com</a><br></div></div>
