Restrict attachment size
Currently SDP limits the size of an attachment to 10MB. To change the attachment size requires a modification tothe global config file. Should the global config change as a result of a patch application, any change made to atatchment size in global config will revert to the default 10MB. Administrators should have the ability to set the size of an attachment. This change should not be lost due to upgrade or patch application. Administrators should also be able to turn off the attachment feature

"Connection to RPC server in the workstation failed."
Hello Support I have been working on this issue for the past two weeks now and I am completely stumped. After running a network scan, half of my devices show the error "Connection to RPC server in the workstation failed". Even after following the steps to disable the firewall (removed from DC and workstations) and applying the scan_setup.vbs (running manually AND as a user logon script), I am having this error returned to me when trying to rescan my workstations.

Missing requester UDF field after update to 8110
Hi all. We have updated our SDP distribution from 7611 to 8110. We are using custom UDF field (UDF_LONG1) in requester table. After this update we're unable to see this data while searching requesters. I found, that after update all data from Requester_Fields.UDF_LONG1 were copied into Requester.ATTRIBUTE_301 field during update. Now RequesterDef.do page is working with new configuration and uses Requester.ATTRIBUTE_301 instead of old Requester_Fields.UDF_LONG1. But if we run SearchRequester.do?fromModule=WorkOrder&startsWith=
Purchase Order --> Asset Exclusion
All, Is there any way to do an exclusion when receiving items from a PO? Every item received from a PO automatically gets added to the Asset Listing. This was fine when we had unlimited Assets, but now that we are limited, it's a problem. I really don't care if we have power adapters, thumb drives, or even a $5 keyboard in our Assets. But, it's filling up our Assets and we can't add more. Thanks
Multiple E-mail Modes
We are currently on SDP 8.0.0. We have two modes for E-mail: "E-mail Office Hours" and "E-mail Out of Hours". What we'd like to do is have ServiceDesk automatically choose the mode based on the Operational Hours. Is there any way to do this? I've looked through the e-mail server settings and the business rules, and I don't see anywhere to configure the e-mail modes. If this is not possible, is there any way to set which one is the default? We had been on SD 7, and it was defaulting to E-mail

Database trouble
Hello I have recently done a new installation of SDP 8.1. on a virtual server. We have a mssql 2005 server with the database on. This server is the same as before. My problem occurs when I run changedbserver.bat to change from mysql to mssql. When I hit "save" I get this error: "you cannot configure this dbserver because the db server is compatible to build 8022 and now you are installed 8110." And after clicking "ok" it says that the service will not start. Is this because I was running an older

Unassigned Tasks sends notification
Good morning, We're getting an issue with tasks notifications, when a new task is created within a request, and the technician is not assigned but the group is, it's triggering the "E-mail technician when a task is assign to them." notification. It's sending emails to technicians that belong to the task's assigned group, but the notification should be sent only to the technician once it's assigned, as in the name of the notification (so no notification sent with only group assigned but no technician).
Auto Fill Tasks
We have a couple incident templates that have multiple tasks. And we were wondering if you could add a feature that would auto fill the tasks with the Technician who is filling out the requests. This would be far more convenient than having to go through each task and having to assign it to yourself. Thanks

Insert Resources (Questions & answers) programatically
I'm trying to insert "Resources/Questions" in a service request template by an external routine using this steps: - firstly, I use the API to insert the main entity (workorder table) and get the WorkorderID - then, I insert one record in WO_Resources table, with the correct ResourceID and the WOID I got from the API - finally, I insert 1 record for each question in that resource in the "ResourcesQAMapping" table, getting the questionid from the table called "questions" and the MAPPINGID from WO_Resources.UID.

SDP bug and questions
Hi, we recently upgraded to SDP 8.1.0 Build 8109 and noticed 2 bugs in it. The first one happens on IE9, when you open a request it will not always show the description. To fix that you need to refresh the webpage. This behaviour is not happening with Chrome or Firefox. The other issue is with Chrome and the request ID field. Here's a screenshot of it : Chrome : IE9 : I also have 2 questions regarding this upgrade : 1. Is it possible to expand the actions menu? Instead of having a drop down menu

I would like for only the technician from Site A to receive a notification email.
