Email Tickets not visible in Customer Login

Post by henry99 »

Hi,

for some reason, only tickets the customer creates via the customer interface (webrequests) are visible by the customer. Email tickets (email-external), even though they end up in the correct queue only show up in the agent interface but not in the customer interface.

Any ideas what might cause this?

TIA
Henry

seems to be more complicated. In fact some email tickets do show up and some dont. There seems to be no pattern. I've tried to give the customer user more rights, but that makes no difference.

The customer user has full access to the queue, yet still only agents can see every single ticket.

the mails are assigned the to queue via a postmasterfilter. Do i have to set any other header than the queue header for this to work reliably?

Customers will see tickets in their "My tickets" for tickets that they have access to. This means that the Customer is a member of the group attached to the queue in which the ticket sits and the ticket's Customer_User_ID (login) matches the login ID of the logged in customer.

By default, if CustomerGroupSupport is off/disabled, Customers are members of all groups. If on, Customers are members of CustomerGroupsAlwaysGroups and explicitly assigned groups.

This follows the above. It means the email address that the customer sent from is not matched to the login of the customer in the Customer database.

Hi,
thanks for your reply. I thought thats what the "Company Tickets" menu is for? But even there certain tickets are noch displayed. Strangely even if the senders address is the same, one shows up and the other doesn't. CustomerGroupSupport was enabled.

I've now added the customeruser header to the postmaster filter, now the new tickets show up. But i still can't make the already existing tickets appear in the customer view.

Basically i'd expect all tickets in a queue to be visible when the user has full rights to that group. On the other hand i can see a benefit for agents to add notes or internal tickets to a queue which are not visible to the customer.

Company Tickets matches CustomerID, not login.

This still doesn't mean the ticket has the customer login attached to it. Click customer on the offending ticket and choose the "real" customer.

I wouldn't. I'd expect the customer to only see her own tickets.

Hi,

thanks for your clarifications. In the meantime I've figured out what the issue was. I'm importing the customers from our CRM db. Someone has changed to customer number in the CRM, now it does not match the customer number in the customer login. Who'd think of that :D

That explains why tickets suddenly stopped showing up in the company tickets view.

Thanks agin for your Help!!
