Need Help with an SLA Report
We have a customer who has an SLA based on a Proposed Resolution for an incident. Not going to go into details on what is a proposed resolution. My thought was to use the Status History data that is now available in AP. So I would create a new status choice in ServiceDesk Plus MSP called Proposed Resolution. I would like to create a report by incident that would capture all the time that counts towards their SLA. I can do that as shown below. What I need is the following - to show the SLA time allowed
[SDF-62459] Is it possible to limit which groups and techs another support group can assign to?
Is it possible limit who a technician or group of technicians can assign a request to? Our tiered support (1-4) reside in different support groups. We're having issues with Tier-1 skipping and assigning to T-3. We would like the only option to be for them to assign to T2 or to reassign to other groups that are not in the tiered group. Additionally, we want to make sure that technicians are only assigning to groups and not individual technicians. Is that possible? Thanks, Adam

[DidYouKnow - 30] Auto-notify users when request is submitted during non-operational hours
Hello folks, One of our customers had come up with a requirement to notify him or a group of technicians when tickets are created "during non-operational hours". His primary concern was to not miss any high priority tickets. Their organization was getting a lot of negative feedback from their end-users because of not addressing show-stopper issues and they couldn't figure out how to put a full stop this issue. The customer wanted to check with us if we can provide a solution. Initially, the customer
Distributing click-once programs
Hi. Can Desktop Central manage the deployment of click-once packages? As far as I know they are run using the actual user credentials so they can't be distributed via Desktop Central unless it is done one computer at a time and knowing the user password. I am quite sure there a different way to do this; Office 2013 is a click-once application, but it can be distributed if I create the package using the Office Deployment Tool, so I hope I can achieve the same result with any other click-once application.

Workflow - Flexible Editing!
This seems like an idea that should have existed a long time ago. Right now, I can't delete tasks in a workflow without deleting everything underneath it. This makes it incredibly unforgiving when working on a workflow that accidentally gets a task slipped in OR I simply want to change the order of things. If I have a workflow with 20 tasks in it, I have to remember the entire tree in the event something gets deleted. See the attached image for the OOPS. Please add a little more flexibility to workflows

PowerShell Script for Sending Email via API
Hi, I defined a custom trigger to be executed when a request from a specific service category has been approved. Basically, a Powershell script which accepts a json file as parameter is executed. The Powershell scripts then takes the WorkOrderId from the json file and passes this to a crystal report as a parameter. The crystal report then passes this parameter to a SQL command (stored procedure) to get corresponding values for the WorkOrder.(This is all happening). The report that is then generated
Import from Azure is blank
Hello, The Import from Azure feature seems to have stopped working for us. I am not sure what has caused it since our SSO still works fine. I log in using my O365 credentials to the helpdesk as an Admin and when I hit the import from azure function, it comes up blank where it used to find the newest employees that I had not added yet. I have tried this in incognito mode just to be sure. Where can I begin to sort this out?
[Tips & Tricks] Script to append field values
Scenario: One of our customers had come up with a requirement to capture a date type of additional field value to the subject of the request. This would make his work easy rather than updating it manually. He preferred to capture only the date (without the time value) to have the subject content look better. Head to this article to learn about the field and form rules. Solution: His requirement was accomplished through Field and Form Rules Javascript.
Invalid form of approval.
Greetings. When manually adding the stages of approval, an incomplete form is issued. When adding the first stage, the form is correct, there is a topic and description with a link to the approval page. When you add the second stage, a truncated form periodically opens, without a topic and description. I enclose a screenshot of the form. The problem does not always occur, what can it be connected with? How to fix it? thanks.
Custom Contract Query that shows Technician to Notify
We'd like a report that will show all contracts expiring within 90 days, and we'd like a column included that lists the "Users to be Notified" for that contract. The idea is that the manager will receive the report and be able to know Technician A was the one responsible for updating the contract details and needs to do so.
SSO log file

[SDF-33164] Approval
Today you press a Approval button in the approval flow but to be a valid approval that is similar to a signature you should input your password(AD) and then press approve. If you can add this we would be very happy then we can get rid of all paper based request forms and add them to the self service portal as request forms. Kr Thomas

Good Day I am facing a problem with the line spacing of messages displayed in Microsoft Outlook. I have not figured it out when it exactly does happen but maybe you are aware of this problem. For example, when I forward a message in ServiceDesk Plus and one receives it in Outlook, the line spacing is too big.

Every organization has assets. Your organization must be having assets too and managing them is always a challenging exercise. This is why the term life-cycle is very crucial in asset management. IT assets are generally managed using IT asset management (ITAM) software and a key process within asset management is the understanding of the asset life cycle. This gives the organization complete visibility and control of its IT assets. Here’s an interesting fact: In a recent analysis by Deloitte, it
