<abstract>
<para>
The goal of this chapter is to provide a brief overview of OTRS and the
structure of its web interface. The terms 'agents', 'customers', and
'administrators' are introduced. We also login as the OTRS admininstrator
and take a closer look at the user preferences available on every account.
</para>

<section id="agent-interface">
<title>Agenten-Weboberfläche</title>
<para>
Die Mitarbeiter bearbeiten über die Weboberfläche des Systems die Anfragen
der Kunden, erstellen neue Tickets für andere Mitarbeiter oder Kunden, legen
Tickets über Telefongespräche mit Kunden an, schreiben FAQ-Einträge,
bearbeiten Kundendaten usw.

Supposing your OTRS host is reachable via the URL <ulink

Customers have a separate web interface in OTRS through which they can
create new accounts, change their account settings, create and edit tickets,
get an overview on tickets that they have created, etc.

In addition to the web interfaces for agents and customers, OTRS also has a
public web interface which is available through the FAQ-Module. This module
needs to be installed separately. It provides public access to the FAQ
system and lets visitors search through FAQ entries without any special
authorization.
</para>

In our example, the public web interface can be reached via either of the
following URLs: <ulink url="http://www.example.com/otrs/faq.pl">

areas. The top row of each page shows some general information such the
current username, the logout button, icons listing the number of locked
tickets with direct access to them, links to create a new phone/e-mail
ticket, etc. There are also icons to go to the queue, status, and escalation

Below the icons row is the navigation bar. It shows a menu that enables you
to navigate to different areas or modules of the system, letting you execute
some global actions. Clicking on the Dashboard button takes you to the
dashboard. If you click on the Tickets button, you will get a submenu with
options to change the ticket's view, create a new ticket (phone/e-mail) or
search for a specific ticket. The Statistics button presents a menu that
allows you to choose from an overview of the registered statistics, creating
a new one or importing an existing one. The Customers button leads you to
the Customer Management screen. By clicking the Admin button, you can access
all of the administrator modules, which allows you to create new agents,
queues, etc. There is also a Search button to make ticket searches.

Survey, buttons to reach these applications are also displayed.

The Dashboard is the main page of the system, here you can get an overview
about the tickets and other stuff related to the ticket activity. It's
thinking to be the starting point for the daily work of an agent, by default

new, and open, among other information.

One of the most important features about Dashboard is that is completely
customizable. That means you that can configure each part as you want,
showing or hiding elements. It's even possible to relocate this elements
within the same column by clicking on and dragging the element's header, and
dropping them elsewhere. Each element is named "Widget", the system has some
widgets ready to use out of the box, but the modular design of the dashboard
screen is prepared to integrate custom widgets easily.
</para>
<para>
The content of this screen is arranged in two main columns, on the left
column you normally can see information about tickets classified by their
states like: reminder, escalated, new, and open. On each of this widgets you
can filter the results to see all of the tickets that you are allowed to
access, tickets you have locked, the ones that are located in agent defiend
queues, among other filters. There are also other kind of widgets in this

ticket creation screens, they should be filled during ticket creation or any
other ticket action screen (e.g. Free Fields) to describe the time frame for

configured to show this dynamic fields also, in case you consider it

<title>Was verbirgt sich hinter dem Begriff Queue?</title>
<para>
Normalerweise werden E-Mails in einer INBOX gespeichert und verwaltet. Eine
INBOX ist eine große Datei, in der alle E-Mails aneinandergereiht
werden. Neue E-Mails werden einfach an das Ende der INBOX angehängt. Das
E-Mail-Programm, welches Sie zum Lesen und Bearbeiten Ihrer Nachrichten
benutzen, liest die INBOX-Datei aus und bereitet den Inhalt für Sie als
Nutzer auf.
</para>
<para>
Eine Queue in OTRS ist ein Mechanismus, mit dessen Hilfe viele Tickets
gespeichert und verwaltet werden können, also auch eine Art INBOX. Als
Anwender ist es völlig unwichtig zu wissen, wo oder wie das Ticket gesichert
ist. Wichtig ist nur, zu wissen, welcher Queue das Ticket zugeordnet
wurde. Anwender, also die sog. Agents (z. B. die Mitarbeiter ihrer
Supportabteilung), können nun Tickets zwischen den Queues verschieben! Warum
aber sollten sie das tun?

Gehen wir zur praktischeren Erklärung noch mal von Max Mustermanns
Unternehmen aus dem Abschnitt ein Beispiel für ein Trouble Ticket System
aus. Max Mustermann hat nach seinem anfänglichen Support-Chaos OTRS
installiert, und er und seine Mitarbeiter nutzen das System zur Bearbeitung
der Anfragen für die Videorekorder.
</para>
<para>
One queue holding all requests is enough for this situation. However, after
some time Max decides to also sell DVD recorders. Now, the customers have
questions not only about the video recorder, but also about the new
product. More and more emails get into the single queue of Max's OTRS and
it's difficult to have a clear picture of what's happening.
</para>
<para>
Max decides to restructure his support system, and adds two new queues. So
now three queues are being used. New messages arriving at the ticket system
are stored into the old queue titled "raw". Of the two new queues, one
titled "video recorder" is exclusively for video recorder requests, while
the other one titled "dvd recorder" is exclusively for dvd recorder
requests.
</para>
<para>
Max asks Sandra to watch the "raw" queue and sort (dispatch) the messages
either into "video recorder" or "dvd recorder" queue, depending on the
customer request. John only has access to the "video recorder" queue, while
Joe can only answer tickets in the "dvd recorder" queue. Max is able to edit
tickets in all queues.
</para>
<para>
OTRS supports access management for users, groups, and roles, and it is easy
to setup queues that are accessible only to some user accounts. Max could
also use another way to get his requests into the different queues, with
filter rules. Otherwise, if two different mail addresses are used, Sandra
only has to dispatch those emails into the two other queues, which can't be
dispatched automatically.
</para>
<para>
Das Sortieren von Mails in verschiedene Queues schafft also Ordnung und mehr
Übersicht in der täglichen Mailflut, deshalb sind Queues sehr wichtig für
OTRS. Durch die Einteilung der Mitarbeiter (agents) in verschiedene
Benutzergruppen mit differenzierten Zugriffsrechten auf die einzelnen
Queues, kann die Abarbeitung der Anfragen weiter optimiert werden. Mit Hilfe
von Queues können Sie die Struktur Ihres Unternehmens abbilden bzw. einzelne
Geschäftsvorgänge abgrenzen. So könnte Max Mustermann neben seinem
Support-Queues für die verschiedenen Geräte für Bestellungen eine Queue mit
dem Namen "Sales" anlegen und als Unter-Queues "Anfragen", "Angebote",
"Bestellungen" usw. definieren, um den Bestellvorgang zu optimieren.
</para>
<para>
Je besser und strukturierter ein Support- system organisiert ist, desto
weniger Zeit und letztlich auch finanzielle Mittel müssen dafür aufgebracht
werden. Queues und Unter-Queues helfen bei der Strukturierung bzw. bei der
Abbildung von Abläufen.

<title>What is the queue overview?</title>
<para>
The queue overview offers a view of all queues in which tickets are present,
and for which the user has RW permissions.
</para>

</para>
<para>
The queue overview offers a variaty of options for daily work with OTRS. The
first of theese is the My Queue. In the Agent Preferences, or when
administering agents, a set of queuse can be defined for which the agent has
been assigned to work within. All the tickets will appear in this default
view, when accessing the Ticket -> Queue View menu.
</para>
<para>
The second option offered by the Queue View is a drill down navigation into
individual queues and sub-queues containing tickets to be worked upon.
</para>
<para>
In both of the view types, the user also has the added ability to see either
all unlocked tickets (this is the default filter), or the user can then
chooose to view all available tickets. Tickets must be in one of the
viewable state types to be shown in the queue view. Per default, these are
'open, new, pending reminder, pending auto'.
</para>
<para>
There are visual alarms, to aid the user.
