Changing SLA once a call has been logged
Hi I have a requirement whereby we sometimes need to change an SLA mid ticket, our scenario is that if a site visit is required we would like the SLA to start again with a 4 hour response (this is our SLA to attend site). I can't select a new SLA once the call is logged, can this be done? I thought linking service category's to SLA's and changing them might work but while the service category's can be changed the corresponding SLA's do not. Any ideas how I can achieve this? Thanks Ian
why are the costs (in hours and money) not exposed to the PROJECTS report?
I want to build a report that takes all the projects in a status of SCHEDULED and tells me the estimated hours and estimated costs for budgeting and planning. But for some reason those fields are not exposed in the report wizard, nor is the project schema available in the query report section. How would I go about doing this? (and why is there not sub-forms in support for projects or Query Report-Projects?)

ServiceDesk PLUS integration with OpManager Unable to fetch values from ServiceDesk Plus
Unable to fetch values from ServiceDesk PLUS. I do have a current support request but I haven't heard anything since yesterday, I figured I may get some assistance from here while I wait. I would like to get this back to working condition as soon as possible. Servicedesk (DNS NAME)= Crest-NOC (Server Name) = 180.200.100.30 ServiceDesk PLUS is running on port 80. OpManager is running on port 8060. This was working until recently, no changes made. I am running the latest version of both applications.

Notification Rules > Reply Template > E-mail signature and cursor appearing before content
Hi, We are having a problem that the e-mail signature and cursor always appearing before content. As personal signature is always appearing before the email content, I am now using the $Technician at the bottom of the email. However, the cursor is showing before "Hello $Requester Name" and we need to manually move it to start typing anything. And also, there are blank spaces before "Hello $Requester Name" which makes the format uncomfortable to read, and we need to manually delete them either...

Editing the backend
I recently joined this organization, and we use ServiceDesk. The guy I replaced was the guy who set it up. I would like to know how to edit the mysql database that ServiceDesk uses. I am able to access the server that it resides on, but I don't know what program to use to make changes. In the past, I used PHPmyAdmin to make changes to my databases, but I don't think that is installed on this server. So what can I do to make changes?
Users - Additional fields from Active Directory
Our company is really a group of seperate companies that is served by single IT-department. We need to identify the companies requesters belong to in ServiceDesk Plus. For this, there is a standard attribute in Active Directory. SDP already imports some (Phone, Department, Job title, Mobile, Site Name, E-mail) but we also need additionla ones. E.g. Company and Manager -fields. It would also be good to have field that we could name freely. Is this possible? It would be really usefull for us. Regards

If the have the problem they included the Problem ID in the incident request subject they send in (via email) Is there a way i can have SD automatically associate this incident to the problem and set the request status etc. I am aware i can use business rules for the latter but have yet found a way to do the former.

SDP - No method for cleaning up archived work orders?
I have a running installation of SDP (8.2.12, Windows server 2003, MS SQL server 2008) where we have been archiving work orders. My installation has become unwieldy due to the number of archived work orders, inline images, and attachments. Enraged by having to wait through a 30-hour FORCED internal backup to get from 8.1.21 to 8.2.12 due to the large size of my installation, which I DO NOT NEED (app directory is backed up, so is my SQL server database), I reached out to support to improve this
Vendor List
I have been tasked to update our ServiceDesk Plus, and maintain it with all of our information. I spent hours updating our Vender List only to find out, that none of my technicians can browse this list. It would be nice to have a tab across the top with a link to a list of vendors that I entered on the Admin tab > Vendors. Or maybe a link to it under the Contracts tab. Just anywhere that one of my techs can look up to find the full contact info for a vender. Even on the Contracts tab, for a contract,

Upgrade to 8212 may have broken API Attribute "requesterEmail"
We have an app that has been submitting tickets to SD+ for several years with the attribute "requesterEmail" to set the requester. The app uses a technician account called "Self Service" to submit via API. But after upgrading to build 8212 yesterday, the requester is now being set as the "Self Service" account, rather than using the "requesterEmail" value we're sending. Nothing has changed with the app submitting the API attributes. Is anyone else using the API value "requesterEmail"? If so, have

Double up email all email recipients
Hi, I've got a strange issue with some tickets. E.g. attached screen shot. When I click reply, the recipients emails get doubled up. The ticket is not merged or anything similar. I checked the original email in the inbox (copy kept) and they are all in there as single, so no double typos ether. Latest version 8213 is installed on Linux and I just restarted as well.

Total Time Taken in Request->Worklog is wrong
Hi, there seems to be a bug/miss calculation with the "Work Log Details" In Request see attachment. The bottom calculation "Total Time Taken" seems to be calculated on the visible items. As we have have in some Requests more than 50 entries, the drop-down box would even not allow us to quickly review the "Total Time Taken" without creating a report for the Ticket. Please see attached screenshots. Software Version : 8.2.0 Build 8212
