[rt-users] "ShowTicket" for Groups that a requestor belongs to

Michael,

RT allows for multiple Requestors on a ticklet. So I would do the following:

1) Put each set of company employees into a separate Group.
2) Create a scrip that (upon ticket creation) finds the group that the
Requestor is in and add the rest of that group's members as Requestors for
that ticket. That last part would be similar to the code that add's "Cc's"
to the list of ticket "Cc's".

Now, your *original privilege* of "ShowTicket" for Requestors only (at the
Global level)  will work as originally desired.

I'm sure someone out there has some code like this. If not, I have some code
that checks for group membership and some other code that add *group members
* to the "Cc" list. We can put those two together.
