Ken, thanks for the code. I will give it a go and see what happens. One question. I am not wanting to set the owner of the ticket, but simply send out a notification to a specific person based on the CF value. The owner of the ticket will be set in the usual manner of 'take'ing the ticket.
Does that change this process?

The following is a simple scrip that sets the Owner based on the value in a Custom Field array: Name: Set owner on CF Condition:On Create Action:User-defined Template: Blank Stage: TransactionCreate or TransactionBatch Custom Action Prep: # ------------------------------------------------------------------- # # Set ticket owner based on Custom Field # KFCrocker 6/01/09 # ------------------------------------------------------------------- # # set new ticket owner id value my $trans = $self->TransactionObj; my $ticket = $self->TicketObj; my $ownerid = 10; # Nobody my %orgs = qw( value1 999 value2 999 value3 999 ); my $cf = new RT::CustomField($RT::SystemUser); $cf->LoadByName(Queue => $ticket->QueueObj->id,Name => "CF Name"); return 0 unless $cf->id; my $cfvalue = $ticket->FirstCustomFieldValue('CFO-Org'); my $ownerid = $orgs{$cfvalue}; # set new Ticket Owner ID $ticket->SetOwner($ownerid); return 1; Custom Action Cleanup: return 1; Then follow up by creating a separate notification on Owner change. Hope this helps. Kenn LBNL On Thu, Dec 2, 2010 at 8:00 AM, Kurt Engle < [email protected] > wrote: I have RT::Extension::ExtractCustomFieldValues installed and working. I do not have a problem populating the CF of a ticket. What I do need is a way to test that value and then notify an e-mail address based on the CF value. Basically, I need some help with Perl to accomplish this...

I installed RT::Extension::ExtractCustomFieldValues and I think your first step would be to add a Scrip for "On Create" with action "Extract Custom Field Values" but exactly what you'd need to do then eludes me. Something like "Create a template where the To: line is based on the value in the Custom Field" But I'm still pretty new at all this RT stuff.

Basically, I have one Q that accepts tickets from multiple physical locations. I have a tech at each location. I would like the tech at location X to be notified when a ticket comes in with the Custom Field Location=X . When the CF Location=Y, I want a different tech notified, etc... Thanks for any help..
