[rt-users] Scrip for changing ownership on a case.

[Bjørn Skovlund Rydén]

Hi!

I want our customers to be able to own cases, in which we need a response from them. I have tried to do this by keeping them "Unprivileged" and giving them the "Own Ticket" ACL.

Now, I don't want customers to be able to Modify the ticket, as they shouldn't be able to assign it to anyone or change it's queue.

So in order for a customer to be able to return a ticket to us once he has replied, I was thinking of running a scrip to do it.

The scrip doesn't seem to work for various reasons though. The user doesn't have the right to make the change to Nobody, and I think I messed a few other things up too.

Can somebody help me with this? Or maybe somebody been in the same situation and solved it differently?

Cheers, Bjorn

============================================

So the scrip I came up with looks like this:
Condition: On Correspond
Action: User Defined
Template: Blank
Stage: TransactionCreate

Custom action prepareation code:
return 1;

Custom action cleanup code:
# get actor ID
my $Actor = $self->TransactionObj->Creator;
# if actor is RT_SystemUser then get out of here
return 1 if $Actor == $RT::SystemUser->id;
# Get out unless actor is owner
return 1 unless $Actor == $self->TicketObj->Owner;
# Get out unless user is unprivileged
my $groupobj = new RT::Group($self->TicketObj->Owner);
$groupobj->LoadSystemInternalGroup('Unprivileged');
return 1 unless $groupobj->HasMemberRecursively($Actor);
# We should now be ok to make changes:
my ($status, $msg) = $self->TicketObj->SetOwner($RT::Nobody->id);
unless( $status ) {
  $RT::Logger->warning( "Error setting ownership to nobody: $msg" );
  return undef;
}
return 1;
