My idea to fix the "display" problem is to rewrite some of the widgets to only include the desired queues (ex: 10 unonwned now is 10 tickets unowned in queues I should see). Is there a way that I can pre-populate my users "RT At A Glance" with specific elements that are germane to the specific user? (Dept A user gets widgets A-J, Dept B gets A-D,K, etc) or can I create custom Dashboards and somehow instruct RT to use them as the "home screen"?

Hi Stephen,

We do this with standard RT permissions. We put the users in a group, and only
members of that group can see/work on tickets in their queue. They do not see
any other qeueus. I think you just need to look at your current ACLs more
closely.

Regards,
Ken
