Servicedesk and Desktop Central
Hi, I have been using Desktop Central for a while now and it has all my assets and software licensing in it. We have just started to use ServiceDesk Plus and I don't want to have to maintain two seperate asset and software licensing lists. Are the two integrated in anyway to prevent this and if so how do I setup? Thanks Paul
mobile client and logon problem
I've install the ManageEngineServiceDesk Plus app from Play store on my android phone. I've inserted my ip for my server and I'm trying to logon. But I get "Login Failed" - User authentication failed. I know my password is correct. I think it's related to the same fact when I'm trying to logon to the web, I have to spesify that I'm not using domain, but local authentication. I can't figure out what to type in front of my user name to force it to use local authentication. Could anyone please tell
Role problem vs tasks
Hello, We are experiencing a little problem since update to version 8203. We have custom roles created for our support groups. Previously we had it configured that some support groups working with tasks werent able to see all request in the "Technician Allowed to view" and were only able to see the requests that were assigned to group or to him directly, and they were able to work properly with tasks and worklogs. After updating from version 8125 to version 8203 technicians with this role are
Exchanging tickets between two ManageEngine helpdesks
We have ManageEngine Servicedesk plus, our supplier (who we exchange a lot of tickets with) also uses ManageEngine has the MSP version. We are currently exchanging tickets between the two of using using email as the interface, but it is not without issue, as they already have access to our network and we are both using similar ManageEngine products, is their a richer way to interconnect them?
Graphique interface for solution in the customer interface
Hi, I have been searching for an option to change the way solutions are presented to the user in the self service portal. It would be nice to have the same interface for solutions as the request catalog. It is a lot more user friendly. One other improvement would be to add a link to an approved (and availible to all) solution in the request catalog for those that have one. We would like our users to log to the self service portal and look for solutions to their problems and to create a request from

Notication Rules not working in SDP
Hello, I am trying to test the configuration of our new SDP installation, but some of the notification rules are not working. Only when a request is raised for a requester it works, but it doesn't for when a request is resolved or closed. I have check that the rules are activated but nothing happens. Incoming and outgoing SMTP settings are fine. Attached is system file. If you need thread dump, let know.
Custom Theme Improvements
Hi, I'm pleased to see the custom theme option, but there are some inconsistencies in how the colors are applied that really should be corrected. It's easiest to explain with a screenshot: Basically, the Edit/Close/Assign/Actions/Reply buttons are drawn with black text on a solid color when it would likely make more sense to match them to the top tabs, both in terms of having a gradient background and also having a customizable text color. This would work better in cases like ours, where the
ServiceDesk Plus Issues
Hello There , After installing a version ServiceDesk Plus on my server We faced these Issues: 1- Although Mail Settings are correct and Notifications Settings are correct the system didn't notify me on any operation (send ticket , ticket closed ,...) this is screen shot for mail settings and this is a screen shot for notification settings 2- after Enabling "Pass-through" Authentication [ Single Sign-On ] From Active Directory Settings I get a blank screen on the browser every time I try to enter
DueBy Date changing by itself when merging tickets
I recently noticed an issue in which the DueBy Date is changing when it shouldn't be. From checking the history of these tickets being affected, it seems that merging tickets is causing the problem, because that is the latest action shown in the history of affected tickets. The 2nd to last action would be me having manually changed the DueBy Date. So I'm wondering if maybe the issue is that the manual DueBy Date change is not sticking to the original ticket when a new ticket is merged to the original

"Acknowledge requester by e-mail when the request is updated" Does not work properly
This notification never works properly. When assign a technician, and I can see in the history that the request has been updated, the requester never gets an email notifying them about the technician assignment. It's not until the request is closed that the "request updated" email goes out, so the requester ends up getting 2 emails at the exact same time; one saying it's updated, one stating it's closed. Why won't the ServiceDesk notify our requesters when a technician is assigned? We want it
Requester Additional Fields
We have used query reports previously to extract requester information in to Excel. The query report below has stopped working since we upgraded recently. I believe that the table containing the additional fiels has now changed but don't know what it's called. Previously the following code extracted everyone with UDF_Char3 = Yes, but now when you update the field that used to be UDF_Char3 (in our case - 'Is Membership Manager') it doesn't appear to be updating in Requester_fields.

Update problem from 8204 to 8205
Good morning. Yesterday, trying to apply the update to 8205 of ServiceDesk Plus and after all the usual steps (engine stop and full backup) the UPDATEMANAGER gave an error (attached the log). According to what I see, it has something to do with java, but don't know what. Need your help, please. Thank you.
Number 0 in a pick list
I added a new field on the default request template, and one of the options in the drop down menu is the number 0. ('0' just zero, no quotes nothing). But whenever it is selected in a new request, the value goes back to 'Not Assigned'. Can this be fixed?

Scalability
According to the fact sheet ServiceDesk Plus can handle up to 750 Technicians Unlimited Requesters 4000 Requests per day 7000 Sites 35000 Groups 30000 IT Assets Does that mean we will not be able to add more than 750 Technician licenses? Demetrius

Support for Oracle as Database for SDP
Is there any road map for support of Oracle Database as back end; there are many advantages to it; > efficient back/recovery > heterogeneous platform migration. Windows to Linux/Unix; vice versa; > distributed architecture for application and database separate. you can start by supporting the free edition of the Oracle DB as well ;
Calendar Task View Gives No Relevant Task Information.
Is there a way in the Home --> Scheduler -->Tasks view that, when you click on the task link, it would bring up the same pop-up as in the Home --> My View --> My Tasks view. This pop-up is infinitely more relevant, helpful, and usable. What it does give is very limited and contains no relevant information as far as context and what the task is linked to and no working options for it like the My View links provide.
Projects Tab Causes Problems
In Build 8203, in Internet Explorer 8, when within the Projects Tab, the other Tabs (Home, Dashboard, Assets, Admin, etc) disappear. Upon calling support, they said it was a known issue, and I just thought I would post to see if there was an update on this bug. Please use screenshot attached.
Service Level Agreement - applying standard SLA's
Hi Quite new to this tools and just building our customer base on the system. We have created a set of Default SLA's in the -configuration wizard HELPDESK- SLA and in the drop down box Default settings. Here we have defined what we want to use as a standard set of SLA's across all of our customers. How do you apply the default SLA's to each customer? or do you need to create them individually for each customer?. i.e. we aren't looking to apply to all customers we appreciate that we need to do it

Auto lookup when entering a ticket
Ironically, this feature is currently used when posting a discussion to this forum. It would be a great feature to have the portal suggest topics based on the Knowledge base articles as you type in the subject line. Even if this became part of the Service Catalog feature, it would be beneficial to reduce user calls.
Responding to a notification from a change
When a notification is sent out from a change and someone replies back to it, a new ticket is created instead of putting it in the change it was sent from. Is there a way to have it go to the change so the person that has the change sees the response back?

Question regarding the automatic closure rule
Hi there, We have our system set so a request is automatically closed after 2 days (if no further response is received from the end user). My question is this: Is the 2 days, based on business working days i.e. does not include the weekends - or does it include non-business days? Example: If I resolve a request on Friday at 9AM would the call close itself on Sunday at 9AM or Tuesday at 9AM? Thanks!
Sites and Categories
I wanted to start a thread to get other users input on how they structure ServiceDesk. We have been using it for years at our Help Desk, and recently got approval to implement it to all of our IT department. I find it a challenge to properly seperate Categories, Subcategories, and Sites. We have 2 primary areas: Infrastructure (Network, Help Desk, Telephony, Mainframe, Servers, SQL) App Development (.NET, Mainframe Applications, External Web, Internal Web) I was thinking on seperating the 2 areas
Assigning a request to a group via mail fetching
Hi Currently we use SDP+ 8205. Since version 8200 we can not assign a request to a group via mail fetching. We are using the @@GROUP=...@@ as before, however it does not assign the request to a group unless we set the "TECHNICIAN" as well. Without TECHNICIAN tag it always assign the request to a random group. I am pretty sure that it had been working properly before 8200 update. Is there any known solution that I can apply? Best regards

LDAP - Import Schedule
Need the ability to set LDAP to import on a scheduled basis. We have 30+ LDAP DNs configured, so we can reduce the amount of traffic over our WAN due to unwanted users being imported. Each site has it's own hiring process; however, IT is centralized. Currently, we have to manually import each LDAP setting.
Groups not receiving email notifications
We're having an issue with group email notifications. Group members are not receiving notifications when a request is assigned to the group via mail fetching when it is sent from a technician. However, notifications are being received when a request is assigned to the group via mail fetching by a standard requester. On the Notification Rules page, under Technician Notifications, "Alert group members by e-mail when a request is left unpicked in a group" is enabled. Has anybody run into this problem?
