[rt-users] Per User/Queue Copy of All Ticket Transactions

[Erik Peterson]

We have one tech who prefers the same thing.  As a starting point, I  
wrote a scrip that makes him added as an adminCC on any ticket that he  
owns.  So I have it run on Create and on Owner Change and check to see  
if the new owner is him, then add him as an adminCC.

Custom action prep:

     if ($self->TicketObj->OwnerObj->Id() == 775) {
       return 1;
     } else {
       return 0;
     }

Custom action cleanup:

     my $owner = $self->TicketObj->Owner;
     $self->TicketObj->AdminCc->AddMember($owner);

I plan to take it a step further and add a user custom field that  
let's me set this as a preference per user and then simply check that  
condition to assign it.

The biggest downside to this is that if he transfers the ticket to  
someone else, he needs to manually remove himself as an adminCC, but  
that wasn't much of a stumbling block for our setup.

Hope that might help and if anyone has great insight into this, I'd  
love to hear it as well.
