[rt-users] Move ticket queue on date expiry

That sounds great.  Currently, I can build a search that says:
Status != 'resolved' AND LastUpdated < '2010-09-02' 

What's the correct syntax for something like:

Status != 'resolved' AND LastUpdated < (TODAY-3)

Hi Gareth,

You should be able to use the rt-crontool command to do this
via a cronjob on your system. Generally, if the due date for
a ticket is set correctly, the ticket will show up closer to
the top in the "10 highest priority tickets I own" window of
the dashboard.

Another way would be to simply add another window to your
dashboard, using a saved search, the display your tickets
that have not been updated in 3 days. That would be my
preferred solution, if the normal ticket order change as
the due date approaches will not work.

Regards,
Ken
