Email notification not worikng when created ticket
Hello, We have this problem. When a ticket is created, technicians or sequesters don't receive a mail notification for this. The only way it is working is when requester creates a ticket and they reply to it, then the requester who created the ticket receives a notifications only for the reply not for the created a ticket. When we stop/start the ServiceDesk service the mail notifications are starting to work again, but the mails who arrive are from past days and this stops working after about 10-20
Check Request Approval Stage Through Script
I am wondering if there is a way of checking the current approval stage of a request via a script.
Approval Settings
Hi, I'am sending approval to several people at once and i want request to be approved only if everyone from, lets say "approving committee" accepts. Now I'm receiving approval status as approved even if only 2 of 3 commitee members approve the request. Is there any posibility to make change to the system to make it recognize request as approved when all of committee members approve it? Regards, Michal

Remote Session - Darken Screen
I'm curious if there is a way to change what the "Darken Screen" option actually shows when on a remote session. Often times a user will just think the computer is off or frozen so they'll attempt a hard shutdown of the computer. It'd be beneficial if we could change this to a splash image of our choosing. That way we can put a generic "Help Desk is currently remoted onto this computer" message to display on the screen with number for them to call if needed.
Register Account by User in ServiceDesk
Do you have any ideas for the ability to register the user by himself in ServiceDesk? Like: Register or Create Account in Social networks.. Consider this scenario: IT provides a service to the customer, IT has a customer account. But the customer provides that service to the consumer, the consumer uses the service, but there is still no consumer account in the ServiceDesk ! to deal with his requests... Except for creating an account via email, Is it possible to complete a form and register in ServiceDesk?
Android Bulk User Assignment via. EMM - Possible?
We're going to be deploying a few hundred phones with EMM (QR Code). We've tested the process, it seems to work fine. However, the one snag is that we have to assign each phone to the user manually. Luckily, these will all be assigned to a single, generic user account. Is there any way to automate this? Currently, as each phone is enrolled, the user would have to call into the IT Helpdesk and have the phone assigned. We've looked at bulk/CSV methods, but they don't seem to apply to EMM enrollment

Business View - Add snap-to-grid or auto-layout option
In business views that have a lot of elements, it would be good to have better layout options. Simple ones like a snap-to-grid button, or automatic dispersion of elements would be helpful. The ability to quickl select a large number of elements would also be useful instead of clicking each one (such as a drag-to-select).

Add Request API
We have moved into a newer version of Service Desk and our SERVLET API is no longer working. I understand we need to move over to the new version of the REST API however, I'm new to JSON. I'm able to make the example work from the help, but can't find a good example to work off. In the servlet version we had a web form to collect the request details. I assume we can still do this. Any insight is appreciated.

Status Codes
Hi, In the problem module, whenever the status in changed the same is updated in the history. For eg: STATUSID Changed from 1 to 4203. STATUSID Changed from 5101 to 1.

Info on the above will be helpful pl. Regards, R Karthikeyan
Add notes to Request from API
I need to update an Onboarding ticket when I add the employee to our domain. I have an app to do all the work, but I would like it to update the ticket. At first I simply wanted to change the related task in the ticket to resolved, but that appears not to be an option, so I suppose the next best time would be to add a note that the work is completed. Is there a way to do this?
SDP Notificatoin only for internal user
Hello everyone, This topic sound repeated, but allow me to ask again. In the SDP, we would like to provide the acknowledge / notification for internal user only. Our current SDP fetch mailbox will contain everything from internal and external. And we would like to enable the notification only for internal user. So it would let external parties aware we have the ticketing system implemented. Because they won't have access anyway. I tried to use the "Junk Filter" option, but it doesn't look good, Is

Tab order in the "New incident" form does not include the recently modified "Site" and "Technician" fields
These two fields were modified in a recent update. Prior to the update, when on the "Department" field, pressing tab would put the focus on the "Site" field, then on the "Technician" field, and then on the "Category" field. Now the two affected fields are skipped, going from "Department" to "Category" directly. And if you cycle the full tab order of the form, the two fields are never touched. Please review and solve this. It is just renumbering the tab order, this task should not take a developer
