[rt-users] Updating parent tickets with time fields

[Alex Young]

Thanks Kenn,

                That sounds really useful if it does it on ticket
creation. Does it also update the times if people make an entry on
MyDay.html? Just noticed with the current scrip I am using that it
doesn't update the time on parent tickets if a comment is added, which
seems very strange to me, as time entered with no comment adds the time
correctly.

 

Thanks,

Alex

Alex,

 

I wrote a scrip that adds time entered into a child ticket automatically
to all parents of that ticket, in case that child has more than one
parent or more than one grandparent, etc.

 

I'll have to look it up, but check back with me in a couple days and I
might have it by then. I'm not home and at a customer site at the
moment.

I have very slightly modified the AutoUpdate Parents with TimeWorked

(http://requesttracker.wikia.com/wiki/AutoUpdate_Parents_with_TImeWorked

Everything works fine, except it doesn't update the parent ticket if you
put any time values in during ticket creation. As we are creating a lot
of child tickets, it would be much easier for us to be able to update
these fields during child ticket creation, rather than going into each
ticket to update them.

Any ideas how I could get this scrip to update when a ticket is created,
as well as when the field itself is modified?

Thanks.
