No, they will not be merged back. The ticket number generator has some
code it uses to recognize if it's a follow-up. This includes the
prefix.
A very quick hack to the GetTNByString sub in the file
otrs/Kernel/System/Ticket/Number/DateChecksum.pm is below - which
should ignore the 'ticket hook'. Please note I haven't tested it and
it's on your own risk.
sub GetTNByString {
my ( $Self, $String ) = @_;
if ( !$String ) {
return;
}
# get needed config options
my $CheckSystemID =
$Self->{ConfigObject}->Get('Ticket::NumberGenerator::CheckSystemID');
my $SystemID = '';
if ($CheckSystemID) {
$SystemID = $Self->{ConfigObject}->Get('SystemID');
}
# check current setting
if ( $String =~ /\Q\E(\d{4,10}$SystemID\d{4,40})/i ) {
return $1;
}
# check default setting
if ( $String =~ /\Q\E:\s{0,2}(\d{4,10}$SystemID\d{4,40})/i ) {
return $1;
}
return;
}
