Scanned software "excluded" and "freeware" Under Licensed
Hello, Our Scanned software with type is"excluded" or "freeware" are displayed as Under Licensed in Servicedesk v9.0 Build 9002. The only option to set the Compliance type to Compliance is to add a software license for as example Microsoft Silverlight and set the license type to "excluded". Is this the only way? We have 2000 scanned software, if we have to add a license for all those applications we have to spend a lot of time. Hope there is a fix for this. Regards, Danny
Change Management - Migrate To New Status
If a technician was to click on the link and change a status what actually happens? Is it just a request to a change manager or does it actually implement the proposed status?? How do we hide this if we don't want people clicking on it??
SDP reply templates formating and Microsoft Outlook
I am currently running SDP 9.4 build 9409 and the support groups in the application submit any changes they need done by an admin to my team. When they need to add a reply/resolution template to the system, I notice the format is never the same as what I received. I receive the templates through a ticket in SDP and I copy them to Microsoft Word and I merge the destination formatting in Word, but after when I paste them in the SDP text editor for the templates, it looks good on the screen but when

$COMPLETE_JSON_FILE question
regarding the way powershell calls in $COMPLETE_JSON_FILE This is not the same json object you receive by making an api call to view a request.For instance, any custom $obj.request.udf_fields will not be exposed the same way the $COMPLETE_JSON_FILE is, it looks as if the latter already converts any custom fields to their label names and values, right on the root request object. So i am having difficulty in thinking up a way to test my scripts against the actual $COMPLETE_JSON_FILE object that my

Alert group technicians when unassigned ticket is updated - SDF-62584
Hello, Can we get an update on SDF-62584 please? I have found in your forums requests for this feature dating back 10 years, yet no other information can be found. In reply to these requests, for the past 10 years, the only response that are posted is that it is being considered for a future release. Seeing as it is now 10 years later, can we get an update as to when this will be done? Is it even on someone's radar? From the community, I'd like to know how you deal with this issue. Thanks, Éric g.
Scanned information displayed on the asset list page
Hi all, With my Service Desk plus build 9417 I can regularly scan, using SNMP, our network in order to detect and monitor photocopiers machines. It works well doing a great job detecting and then showing, in the attribute details, the total copies printed by each specific photocopier. However this information is buried in the details page of each devices making difficult to have a collective overview of the many hundreds of photocopiers machine installed in our configuration (basically you have
Notify Incharge of new ticket for their department?
I'm not sure why I am having so much difficulty with this, but after reviewing the documentation I am still unable to find a solution. Apologies in advance if this is an obvious configuration and I am just missing it somewhere! I am looking to notify a Requestor with the Departmental "incharge" role of all new work orders for their department when the default template is used. Can anyone help clarify for me? Business rules appear to only allow notification of technicians. Notification rules affect

SDP Outbound EMail Customization
Good Morning ME, I am administering ME SDP and have been tasked with making our Outbound emails less anonymous. Is there a process to change outbound emails, from SDP, to show from the technician it is assigned to? We have 13+ technicians that can reply or forward from tickets, and currently it only shows from the Reply-To address set in the Outbound email settings in SDP. I have attached a redacted image to show what I would like to customize after selecting reply in a ticket. Regards, Robert

Prevent bulk closing of ticket dependent on field value.
We have a scenario where we bulk close a number of requests that come through in a given month. The support is paid on a subscription, and we do not need to bill back for work logs / time spent on those requests. However, there are some instances where we need a request to get some special attention before close due to a licensing purchase. We have a custom field for number of licenses and license cost, but I would like to know if there is a way to basically have a bulk close operation stop, or ignored,

Thumbs Down - New Incident Template Layout
Hi SDP, This latest update is pretty crud. The new Incident Template layout is triggering my OCD in a big way, please tell me there is going to be a revision coming in shortly. We like straight lines and uniform templates in the IT world. On a good note, we like some of the extra features such as Radio and checkboxes, but find it a big shame that we can't apply them to pre-existing fields such as Category or Ticket Type. I've attached a screengrab of the template to better show you what i'm talking

Requester Conversation replies don't contain previous messages
When I send a message to a user via requester conversation, and vis versa, I'd like to make it so the previous messages in the chain show up in each reply. When I send a message to a user via requester conversation after they submit a ticket, sometimes they forget what they sent in so they get confused. Just so it's clear, if a user sends in a ticket saying "I need help with setting up my email signature", I reply via helpdesk saying "Here is a user guide that will walk you through how to do this"
Requester and Approvals
How can a requester see tickets that are awaiting their approval? They can currently see tickets that they have submitted that are awaiting someone else's approval but not tickets they need to approve. Maybe I'm missing something. Any help is appreciated. Thank you

Report on printer status (total copies printed)
Hi all, With my Service Desk plus I regularly scans, using SNMP, our network in order to detect and monitor photocopiers machines.

Hi! I wonder if it is possible to create a new case when the due date of another case has been reached. We are trying to find a easy way to deliver and retrieve licenses to our users The scenario is this: A user creates a new case where he sets the start and stop date of the period when he's in need of the license. A technician picks up the case and gives the user the requested license, and therefor markes the case as solved. When the due date of the requested period has come another case should
