After realizing my scrip was indeed being called (although not obvious from the
original logs) I turned to the template.
With the following template, it all works.
Note, the ===Create-Ticket: line, and the ENDOFCONTENT lines are important, and
the order of the lines seems to matter somewhat - IE, in the order shown on the
RT-ESSENTIALS book, it wouldn't work for me... Also, note that the Owner line
refers to the ID of the owner, which may not be the email of the owner,
depending on your system.
Template:
===Create-Ticket: manager-approval
Subject: Approval of {$Tickets{'TOP'}->Subject}
Depended-On-By: TOP
Queue: ___Approvals
Type: approval
Owner: SLANDER
Refers-To: {$Tickets{'TOP'}->Id()}
Content : Please review and approve this request.
ENDOFCONTENT

Subject: RE: Problem calling a custom scrip - Update, but, still stuck.
I changed my scrip to be:
if ($self->TransactionObj->Type ne "Create") {
$RT::Logger->info( "> Not a Create \n" );
return 0; # This is an update transaction
}
my $ticket = $self->TicketObj;
my $CustomFields = $ticket->QueueObj->TicketCustomFields();
while (my $CustomField = $CustomFields->Next()) {
my $nam = $CustomField->Name;
my $val = $self->TicketObj->FirstCustomFieldValue($nam);
$RT::Logger->info( "> CustomField Name: $nam \n" );
$RT::Logger->info( "> CustomField Value: $val \n" );
if ($val =~ /YES/){
$RT::Logger->info( "> This is a change control \n" );
return 1;
}
}
$RT::Logger->info( "> Default 0 exit \n" );
return 0;
And, now I see in the logs;

#246/34573 - Scrip 3 On Create Autoreply To Requestors
(/opt/rt3/bin/../lib/RT/Action/SendEmail.pm:302)
So, by scrip is being called, but, no tickets are being created;
The scrip settings are;
Condition: User Defined (as above)
Action : Create Tickets
Template : Monitor:Approval
Stage : TransactionCreate
The only other part to this that I know of is the Template. Other then the
template, is there anything else I need to do to auto create the approval
tickets?
Here is my template;
Subject: Approval of { $Tickets{'TOP'}->Subject() }
Queue: ___Approvals
Type : approval
Owner : [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>
Content : Please review and approve this request.
Depended-On-By : TOP

Subject: [rt-users] Problem calling a custom scrip
All,
In 3.8.4, I am attempting to set up an approval queue. The idea is that
if a Custom Field named "Change Control" is set to value 'YES" then a new
ticket will be created to gather the required approval.
This is in queue "Monitoring".
So, in the queue I have a Scrip: Monitor:approval, with a User Defined
condition, Action is Create Tickets, Template is Monitor:Approval, Stage
TransactionComplete.
My Custom Condition originally was:
if ($self->TransactionObj->Type ne "Create") {
return 0; # This is an update transaction
}
my $CustomFields = $ticket->QueueObj->TicketCustomFields();
while (my $CustomField = $CustomFields->Next()) {
if ($self->TicketObj->FirstCustomFieldValue('Change Control') =~ /Yes/i) {
return 1;
}
return 0;
When that failed to do anything, I just changed it to "return 1;".
My template is:
Subject: Approval of { $Tickets{'TOP'}->Subject() }
Queue: ___Approvals
Type : approval
Owner : [email protected]
Content : Please review and approve this request.
Depended-On-By : TOP
When I create a ticket and select YES for my CF, I see this in my log; (note,
my custom scrip is #84)

Can anyone see my mistake? Or, am I going about this wrong?
