Hi, I have few "clients" I'm helping them with their website. They are sending to me stuff to add/delete/edit on my private email and it's now a little mess. And I overlooked few times their emails. I was thinking, if it's possible, to build Drupal 7 website (I have few "empty" domains) and use it as a simple Project Manager.� My idea was to create accounts for each client and they will be able to see only their stuff. I would create content type "Task" where they can write down what they want me to do, upload files, etc. How hard/easy it would be to make? Any comments? Thanks, LAMP
Hi, Instead of setting up a Drupal 7 website, I'd recommend using http://www.mantisbt.org . It's free, awesome, and will do exactly what you want. Warm regards, Sumati On Fri, Mar 29, 2013 at 11:12 AM, <lamp@afan.net> wrote:

I tried once, 2-3 year ago and I got some bugs right after an installation. :( But, I'll give it a try, why not.� � Thanks

Depending on your level of complexity you need there are two projects to look at. http://drupal.org/project/support - Gives you a full fledged ticketing system in drupal. And lets you set up multiple clients,etc. Has way more than most people need and requires a bit more overhead to set up. http://drupal.org/project/casetracker - I use this for exactly the purpose you are talking about. It is a simple casetracking tool which just allows priorty and status fore each case which you then comment on. Although it has notifications integrations, I actually use it with the subscription module to get the email as well when my clients post a case. Take a look at http://forenasolutions.org<http://forenasolutions.org/> (you'll only have view access to the cases). Add the content_access module if you need extra security and you're good to go.

I personally use Support. The nice thing about Support is that you can set it up so that clients can send an email to create a new ticket or reply to notifications to update tickets. My clients really like that feature. Jamie Holly http://www.intoxination.net http://www.hollyit.net On 3/29/2013 11:28 AM, Metzler, David wrote:

After short, not detailed look, Support looks better to me. Also, Case tracker is alpha version and has quite number of it's own bugs?!? But, I'll try it too... � � �
