Hi, sorry if i'm missing something simple here.
I tried your suggestions
this

my $cf = $Ticket{TOP}->LoadCustomFieldByIdentifier("Manager");

gave me an error when saving template:

Couldn't compile template codeblock 'TOP': Bareword "TOP" not allowed
while "strict subs" in use at template line 2

So I tried adding {}

$cf = {$Ticket{TOP}->LoadCustomFieldByIdentifier("Manager")};

this one I could save, bet when creating a ticket, it gave this error in
log:

[10174] [Mon Mar 21 11:53:36 2016] [debug]: Workflow: yielding $cf =
Can't call method "LoadCustomFieldByIdentifier" on an undefined value at
template line 1.

Am i missing something?

Thanks
