My noobish list of long outstanding but most annoying SDP bugs
Hey guys, I've decided to make a thread out of it, in the hope something gets done about these. Developing new functionality is one thing, finetuning is another thing. I encourage everyone that has such issues over time, to use this thread to add your most irritating bugs inhere. There is one catch however, your bug must have been long enough here that is spans multiple versions already: for example a irritating bug that's in since patch 8.0 build 8015 or even longer. Be sure to check out https://servicedeskplus.wiki.zoho.com/SDP-Known-Issues.html#Purchase%20&%20Contracts%20Module for

How to disable Category and sub-category while enable item field?
Hi, I believe that if i would like to setup "Requester can set" item fields, category and sub-category will have to enable "Requester can set" as well. Is there any way to keep item fields "Requester can set" and "Requester can view" for category and sub-category? The reason is after user select incident template, they will change category and sub-category again because fields is show to them and they will think they have to choose. this can mess report and item will change to that worng category.

Organize request by "Last time updated"
This is another feature alot of other help-desk apps have that I feel is missing in service desk plus. Currently when I am looking at all the open request I can organize them by Priority, ID, Subject, Requester Name, Assigned To....etc. One option that is missing is to group them by the last time the request was updated rather that be a note added, e-mail, task added or some other action. This will open me quickly see what request have been untouched for awhile by my techs. I have seen others

Attachments from SD+ get funny filenames
If we send a report from SD+ by e-mail to a Lotus Notes client the attached file will get a really strange name in Lotus Notes. This is because the mail-sender in SD+ isn't RFC compliant and uses a strange Character set. Does anyone have a solution? The filename looks like this: =?utf8?Q?Max_waiting_for_Support.xls?= when it should be Max_waiting_for_Support.xls

Can ServiceDesk group emails under one ticket?
We're using Service Desk to manage live production issues. We have successfully wired it up to an email address so new issues just need classifying and assigning. However replies to the original email end up creating new tickets, which rather defeats the objective. Can it be made to recognise replies and group them together under one ticket, much like how a CRM system works?

Standard field (DueByDate) removed from incident template
I have apparently accidentally deleted the DueByDate field. It does not appear in my default incident template, and it is not available in the list of fields that is displayed to the left of the template as I customize it. I can tell from e-mail that I receive that the variable is being set somehow, but I am not setting it. How is the $DueByDate variable being set if the requester doesn't set it, and how can I restore that field as an option?
Customer ability to book their own appointments
I run ServiceDesk for my part-time computer consulting business. I also use the same product every day in my full-time job as helpdesk Tech. In my day job since we support the company's internal and external employees, there is little need for scheduling beyond setting time off schedules and back up techs. Since we are on call and work at the office that we support there is really no need for my internal customers to require booking appointments. In my business however, I go on-site, people drop
