*On Jul 02, 2011 @ 04:37 pm, [email protected] wrote:* Elva - This helped tremendously - thank you very much. I now have a dropdown for "CustomerID" (which lists available Companies, as expected) when I create new Customers. That said, I noticed that the "CustomerID" field when creating a new ticket is still a free text field, not a dropdown. Is there any way I can enable all CustomerID fields to become Company dropdowns?

Hi Jober, Actually you are right in the definition of Customer Company. You should be able to create more than one customer with the same company, but you need to add customer companies first. What version of OTRS are you using? In OTRS 3.0.1, this field (CustomerID) was changed to be a drop-down when you are adding a new customer, so that you can select a company from the registered ones. I hope this helps!
