alternative to edit comments
Hi all,

I know it is not possible to edit some message in RT. So, I would like how
you do for a comment if you make a mistake in the content or the time
worked ? For example, in a project or intern tickets in your company.
Is there an alternative to edit transactions like comments?

Thanks,

Christophe ARBEZ

You can update the ticket time after creating your txn. Perhaps that will
help?

You could create an "Edit Content" link and add it to the txn links and
from there create a custom form. You'll need something like:

# {{{
# paper-trail auditor backdoor :)
# Needed to change the txn's time taken via EditBilling.html
package RT::Transaction;

use strict;
no warnings qw(redefine);

sub _Set {
my $self = shift;
$self->SUPER::_Set(@_);
}
# }}}

added to a loaded modules source. We do this for our billing stuff. We have
a module named RT-Site-UMN-Duluth-EFS which the above code snippet lives in
and a form named EditBilling.html which does the front-end work.

Cheers,

Thanks for the answer !

I can update the ticket time obviously but, for me, it is less important
than the transaction time which allow me to see the time per person for a
ticket.

Oh it's great !

But where your module and your "EditBilling.html" are located ?
In a path like /usr/share/request-tracker4/html ?
