Either I not understanding something or I think I might have confused the issue by leaving some ambiguity in what I was asking. I'm just dealing with one DB now. Here's the situation:
-I have imported the assets themselves from our old helpdesk software's DB into RTAT's DB. -I have a table of linked assets from the old system. -I want to use this table as input to create links in the new RTAT. I can massage the input data as needed to have it in "Name", "URI", or whatever. I'm a perl newbie so I want to make sure I understand this: $at->AddLink(Type=>'RefersTo',Target=> $other_at->URI); $at = RTx::AssetTracker::Asset->new(RT->SystemUser) AddLink is presumably a function in AssetTracker RefersTo is the type of link Target is the asset to create the ReferTo link to? And what kind of info does it want here (Name, URI, ?)? $other_at = ??? (or did I make you think I was trying to link between two different RTAT systems?) URI is the uri of the asset the link is created in/from? Does the reverse link get created automatically, or should I repeat the statement, reversing Target and URI and flip the linktype?

If you want to link $at to $other_at: $at->AddLink(Type=>'RefersTo',Target=> $other_at->URI); Try it and see.
