Leave Type allowing technician available
It would be great to have the ability to use the scheduler to mark technicians as being on a project or another task but still available to take requests, this would allow us keep track of technicians work as well as availability

PostgreSQL Error
Hi, We use Qlikview to report over our Service Desk Plus postgresql database via an ODBC connector. We pull in the records using the following query: SELECT * FROM servicedesk.public.workorder Now this has been working for a while but has recently stopped because of the following error: Error: SQL##f - SqlState: 22P05, ErrorCode: 1, ErrorMsg: ERROR: character with byte sequence 0xef 0xbb 0xbf in encoding "UTF8" has no equivalent in encoding "WIN1252" I suspect this might be down to the ODBC connector

ServiceDesk Plus - Email Signatures
Hi there, Unfortunately, since our cached Manage Engine folder was re-created when Manage Engine support last resolved an issue for us, our email signatures no longer show in our replies from within ServiceDesk Plus. I've tried renaming the cached folder again so that another is automatically recreated, however this has not resolved the issue. I've also tried removing all signatures that our technicians have set up and created them again without success. Is this something anybody else has previously

Request time created does not change with site and group
Hello, Just wondering if the created date and time of a ticket is "craved in stone" and does not change when the ticket is assigned to a new group in a separate site: Example: Email is auto assigned to team member in site A, group A with an SLA of 20 minutes. The team member will then assign the ticket to the site and group called B. The SLA for B is 40 minutes. which does apply but its from the time the ticket was created, not when it was assigned to the B team. This is central to my UAT and

Requester Purge
We would like to be able to purge the system of Requesters that have no associated items (requests, tasks, projects, etc) in ServiceDesk Plus. We are a University, so every year we have students, faculty and staff who leave the University and we need to be able to purge the system of unassociated requesters to keep our requester count at a manageable level. We currently have over 100,000 requesters and that number grows substantially every year.

Does anybody know how to make the space more usable? There is such a large area for the tasks, but you are limited in amount of characters before you get the ... and can't see what it is exactly you are trying to remind yourself of sometimes. As you can't control the size, it seems like such a waste of real estate, the character limit should be greatly increased to make this feature somewhat usable I feel.

SAML 2.0 or UPN for SDP
Any news for supporting SAML 2.0 in the onprem versions of Servicedesk Plus? This would be sweet to use with ADFS. Either this or at least supporting userprincipalname is a strong recommendation from my side. Samaccountname is a bit pre historic by now and a modern application as SDP should support UPN. There are a few half ways around it for example with setting up SSO, but that will only support domain joined machines. The other way is to configure LDAP to use a custom login attribute label, set
Importing AD Users
I'm not sure why I am asking again because I have asked two or three times in the past 6 years for this feature. The current method of importing a user requires you to select the entire OU each time you want to import just one user which is a pain because we have OUs where some users need access to SDP and users who do not. This means every time we want to import a single user, we have to go back through and delete all the ones that should not be there. Your solution has always been, place the

editing pre-existing fields for template
I have an existing template that has an Item field that I am trying to edit to add another option into the Pick List, but it doesn't show if I go to Incident - Additional Fields, where all the other fields are. I tried deleting it and re-creating it, and it tells me it's a reserved key word, so I must choose another name. Is there a workaround for this? This template was existed prior to me getting hired, so I don't know or why it was created this way to begin with.
Standard group for Technician.
Define a default "Group" for a particular technician. A technician can be part of several groups, but in many cases, only one group is greatly used for support operations. In such cases, in order to expedite the creation of incidents by users, and to avoid that requests are lost, if the technician is absent, it is necessary that requests without a group, but with a defined technician, are also classified in a standard "Group" of the Technician . Based on this, I ask that the following ideas

How to require a contact field limited to a particular user or template?
We have helpdesk "kiosks" where users can walk up and submit tickets. They are already logged into with generic ManageEngine accounts "kiosk 1, kiosk 2, etc". The problem we run into is when the user does not leave contact information so we don't know who created the ticket. Is there any way to *require* a contact field that is either limited to ONLY the kiosk accounts or have a different requester template that requires a contact field? We don't want to require this across the board and make this
