Mario,

I've been looking to add this info myself. Apparently it is not a widely 
requested (or needed) feature, as the platform is on its nth iteration and its 
not been added, nor do many search results come up. So perhaps you and I are 
the rare birds who would like this kind of info visible on the dashboard. I did 
find this the other day,

http://wiki.otterhub.org/index.php?title=Show_Customer_Data_in_Dashboard

which appears to be for a prior version, but gives hints as to where to start 
looking. That said, I have not gotten around to adding customer names, but did 
successfully modify other displayed info within 
.../otrs/Kernel/Output/HTML/Standard/AgentDashboardTicketGeneric.dtl

As the wiki.otterhub.org hints at, the dashboard module is by default only 
pulling data specific to tickets, which is why you can get the ID but not the 
name - due perhaps to how the tables are setup in the database. My next step, 
when time allows, would be to find and examine the module related to the 
QueueView, which does display the customer name, to see how its done within 
other parts of the system. 

Good luck with your search. 

best,
Dominic
