Thanks Gerald We do need 'customer group support' in our environment! I had already made the 4-line additions that you suggested; I did alter what else I thought was logical, and indeed I have looked at the 'AddUser2Service.pl' script you mentioned in the link below for inspiration (we're using that script too). It's probably something very simple that's wrong, I will check where I've added 'Customer' again. The hard bit is determining "where it makes sense" ! As the saying goes, 'a little learning is a dangerous thing', particularly when it comes to PERL ....
Thanks again for the suggestions.

Subject: Re: [otrs] Command-line script for adding Customer users to groups? customers shouldn't belong to groups... Ok, but bin/otrs.AddCustomerUser.pl<http://otrs.AddCustomerUser.pl> has an option to add a user to a group, but it doesn't appear to actually *use* $Options{g} (bug?) copy otrs.AddUser2Group.pl<http://otrs.AddUser2Group.pl> to my.AddCustomerUser2Group.pl<http://my.AddCustomerUser2Group.pl> add in use Kernel::System::CustomerUser; use Kernel::System::CustomerGroup; create the CommonObjects to reflect Customer: $CommonObject{CustomerUserObject} = Kernel::System::CustomerUser->new(%CommonObject); $CommonObject{CustomerGroupObject} = Kernel::System::CustomerGroup->new(%CommonObject); Prepend "Customer" to the keys (within curly braces{}) where it makes sense in $CommonObject Test. I wrote this "live" and did not test, but it should resemble in some form this: http://forums.otterhub.org/viewtopic.php?f=62&t=12487#p48841 On Fri, Sep 6, 2013 at 9:40 AM, Bogdan Iosif <bogdan.io...@gmail.com<mailto:bogdan.io...@gmail.com>> wrote: It would be much simpler to perform this operation via SQL directly on OTRS's database On Fri, Sep 6, 2013 at 4:33 PM, Stanford, Philip N. <p...@noc.ac.uk<mailto:p...@noc.ac.uk>> wrote: Hi, Does anyone have a script for adding Customer users to groups? We have a large number of customers and want to add sub-sets of these to a number of groups. I've tried modifying the script otrs.AddUser2Group.pl<http://otrs.AddUser2Group.pl> (which adds Agents to groups) without success - probably not surprisingly since I have only a limited acquaintance with PERL and the OTRS programming model. All I'm after is something that works in a similar manner to the supplied script below, and will add a single customer to a group, with permissions: # ./otrs.AddUser2Group.pl<http://otrs.AddUser2Group.pl> Usage: ./otrs.AddUser2Group.pl<http://otrs.AddUser2Group.pl> -g groupname -u username -p ro|rw Suggestions very welcome.
