I am not quite sure what you mean by the first one.

The "what happened today" is quite nice in the newer releases - you can take any search and save it on your home page - so as long as you can write a search (and pick which columns you want to display) you can get exactly what you want.

        The last one, sounds like you need notepad/emacs...

It's been a while since I've looked at RT.  The last time I tried to
get it some traction in the organization I work for, it foundered on 3
points:

        * It didn't understand "customers".

          The company I work for is in the computer service and support
          business.  I need a ticketing system to have an integrated
          'customer file' that keeps track of all the information about
          a client, specifically including mapping incoming email
          addresses to clients and auto-carboning the appropriate
          client supervisory email.  RT didn't do that when I looked at
          it last, and AT could be made to do it -- I thought -- but I
          was already selling 'up-hill' and the loose integration was
          something I couldn't overcome.

        * I needed a "what happened today" view for the boss -- showing
          all of today's ticket activity and status changes and total
          time billable -- and there wasn't one, quite, and I wan't
          smart enough to write it myself.

        * To work helpdesk with it efficiently, I sort of needed a way
          to start keying in the notes on an empty screen, and then
          figure out which ticket it applied to, and attach it, or
          create a new one.
