Service Catalogue Form - how to show only Item and not Category and SubCategory
Dears, We're setting up our Service Catalogue and in the form we need to have the user select only the item, having the Category and Subcategory either locked or hidden. The set up is being done this way because we are replicating the Category and SubCategory to the Service Catalogue 2-Tier Structure. We tried two things without the desired results: 1) to remove Category and SubCategory from the form, but then Item was automatically removed from the form; 2) then we configured the Category and Subcategory

Recording Oracle licenses against assets
Having a bit of trouble on how to record Oracle Enterprise licenses against a server asset. The license model is based on Named Users, and a certain amount of named users are assigned to a server depending on the processor count. In this example I have a single server asset which has 2 x quad core processors. Using Oracle's metrics I require 25 user licenses to be assigned to a processor. The number of processors is based on the cores, and each core is 0.5 of a processor so a single Quad core processor
New request is generated when a CC'ed user responds to an email
Hi, If a requester submits a ticket to ServiceDesk that includes other users in the CC field of their email, any responses from those CC'ed users - if they reply to all (which means they'll reply to the helpdesk) - will also generate a new ticket in ServiceDesk. I understand that this happens because their reply will obviously not include the ##RequestID## in the subject field so ServiceDesk see's their email response as a new request. Is there any workaround for this other than suggesting that

Adding custom fields in reports

Customized Ticket Status which are considered completed
Dears, The behavior of customized Ticket Status, which are classified as completed is still not entirely clear to me. We would like to have a Cancelled and Informed ticket (Completed) Status as well for statistics. - Does a ticket with a Cancelled Status have the behavior of a Closed or Resolved ticket? - Can a user reopen a Cancelled ticket? - What notification classification will trigger email to the user? Resolved or Cancelled? We considered doing that in the "Request Closure Code", but we

Notify select Technicians on Assignment
We have a select group of Technicians who are not regularly logged in and have requested they get emailed when a request is assigned to them. We have looked at Support Groups and this addresses some requests but there are others that do not fit this option. We considered Business Rules but Technician isn't a field we can build a rule around so that doesn't work. Any suggestions?

Why can site field not be made mandatory
Hello; We have hundreds of sites that we support in our business. Within these are many transient workers. Therefore the site that gets in touch is vital information, the requestor less so. However, unlike almost every other field in the incident request template, I cannot make Site mandatory. Why? Regards Alistair
Unable to recieve the items Error: null
Has anyone run into this issue with Service Desk when trying to Receive Items in Purchase Orders? The error reads "Unable to recieve the items Error: null" Support has been pretty usless on helping us solve it and it's been going on for months now. Seems to be only software items that have the issue. They bumped us to the development team, but they have really done nothing.

Auto set task owner as request owner
Hi, Is it possible to set the owner of a task to automatically be the request owner? I can see where I can set an owner but these are named owners (technicians) and there is no option for 'set as request owner' and the techs have to manually set themselves as the owners. We have a number of scheduled tasks which are assigned to different techs everyday. It would be useful to be able to set the scheduled tasks to receive their ownership from the ticket owner.

Double notification emails
Hi there, Currently we have email notifications enabled for closure's and updates which is working. However we are getting two emails for when a request is closed, an update email and a closure email. Is it possible to only have the closure email sent when an incident is closed instead of a closure and an update? Thanks
Assets
There are many weird quirks in the asset management. The biggest thing is the auto-discovery overrides entered data. There needs to be a way for the administrator to override without excluding. Products - Auto discover overrides the product name. A good solution would be allow admin to setup products that use a scanned product name. i.e. Admin sets up a Laptop called Thinkpad 530. Assigns this to all products that scan as Thinkpad 530, Thinkpad 530c, Thinkpad 530 (9249), etc. Access Points

User Account Management
Good Day! I would like to propose an idea with regards on the requester/user account management. The scenario is that, there's this employee that so happen to be no longer connected in our company and we need to deactivate all of his/her system access without compromising those previous requests made. Unfortunately, unlike any other of our applications. SDP doesn't have the feature to "DISABLE/ DEACTIVATE" user access. What is available in here is "DELETE" which is not applicable to us. Appreciate
Discontinuing support for IE 8 and below
We had dis-continued the support for IE 8 and below from ServiceDesk Plus version 9101 which was released on 9th July 2015. Since at that time most of the function's would have worked in those browser's we would have displayed a message alone stating 'Some functions might not work on IE 8 and below. We recommend you to move to version 9 and above' while accessing a page in ServiceDesk Plus and the requested page would have been displayed. In one of the service pack release ( probably before Nov
Discovered way to have Dashboard that cycles between Opmanager and Servicedesk dashboards!
This article by Nigel Arnold at Set 3 showed me how to use gadgets in opmanager to display pages from Service Desk within a OpManager CCTV view. http://set3manageengineuk.blogspot.com.au/2014/12/servicedesk-plus-in-opmanger-dashboard.html a little bit of dicking around, I have discovered I can do this : <iframe src="http://helpdesk/WidgetDetails.do?widgetId=1&hasFlashCharts=true" width="400" height="200"></iframe> to include the gadgets from the dashboard view. so use Chrome to do a View Frame Source
Trigger a Task only when certain field(s) selected
I'm currently attempting to set up our new Help Desk system with Servicedesk. One of our primary tickets we deal with is in relation to new hires. I've got the incident template all laid out with all the proper fields would need to fill out, as well as marked what's mandatory and not. What I'd like to do is to create tasks based upon if those fields are selected or not. For instance, I wouldn't need a task to prepare a new computer for the employee if they're in a role that doesn't require a computer.
Request approvers - need another option
When sending a request for approvals, sometimes the wrong approver is selected. The wrong approver DENIES the request and then the request is useless. We have to recreate the original request and send for approvals again. Is there a way to delete the approver who denied the request and have the ticket status updated to awaiting approval? Or can we get another option other than Approved or Rejected? A good option might be "Not My Accountability" or something along those lines... Regards,

What are the requirements for Non-IT assets?
Hello, I know that assets with an IP address automatically register as Assets, but I wanted to find out whether that's the only qualifier or not? I.e. would something like a router or switch, which has an IP address, be required to count as an IT asset, or is it possible to classify those items as Non-IT assets? Just wondering what the qualifications are so I can definitively explain why some items are classified as IT assets and others are not. Thank you for your help!
