Upgrade process for 9.3 build 9300 to 9.4
Can someone provide the correct approach here? Can we just apply the latest PPM, ManageEngine_ServiceDesk_Plus_9_3_0_SP-0_35_0.ppm, for 9.3 to take us to 9.4? This is what we did for 9.2 to go to 9.3. Thanks.

Service Request Template Technician view only
Easy one...I have a Service Request template. I have the "show to requester" UNCHECKED. Should Technicians still be able to see and use it? I originally thought they WOULD be able to. I want to make a template for Techs only. If the above is incorrect, how would I do this? I ask because I have this and one of my senior techs gets a "not authorized to view this page" when I send a link to the specific template. Thanks David

Reply / Forwarding Mail in conversation Continue to use incoming date as variable
Hello, we also send e-mails to external service providers via an ID. If we then answer or forward the service provider's mail, the date of his mail cannot be indicated as variable, right? As a normal reference as with a mail client. The variable $Title takes the subject of the mail, but $CreatedDate does not take the creation/send date of the mail. Can someone help me to use the send date as a variable? Thank you very much. Christian

Clear Text in a Field
Dear All, During some searching yesterday I came across a script that would allow you to put guidance notes in the Title Field and Description Field and would pop up an alert if the user didn't change them before saving the record. And then I got asked to do just that this morning, and now I can't find the post. And believe me, I have searched and searched. Can anyone remind me what it looked like? Thanks In Anticipation Ian

Email Reply Not Updating Existing Ticket
We are experiencing an issue with our ServiceDesk Plus where a user replies to an existing ticket and it will not update the ticket. It happens sporadically and we have not been able to find the cause. We have reset the server twice and still we are seeing an issue. We first noticed it when the system crashed due to our server hard drive being full but we have cleared that up. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Current version 9334

schedule service restart
How do I schedule a service restart configuration? I'm migrating an unhealthy server, and need this service to restart periodically. I figured there was an easy config I could push but can't find a way to do it. Sorry if this is obvious, but I'm baffled why I can't find a way to use DC to do this.
Filter Categories by User Groups
Is there a way to only make certain Categories visible to certain User Groups? I know templates can be displayed to certain User Groups, but I'd like to do the same thing with Categories. Or is there another way to filter them by site or region perhaps? Essentially it would be great if when creating the Categories, the same option that's available when creating an Incident Template is available there as well. See attached screenshot.
user onboarding
How do you guys setup user on-boarding process on Service Desk. It seems to me that the task feature might be limited on handing off from one tech to another tech if you have several tier levels. Just want to know how others have setup their new user on-boarding in their ticket system. This entails such things like: Has the computer profile been setup Has Wi-Fi Been deployed out to the computer Has the printer been installed for that specific office location Thanks, Z
Volume of Requests doesn't fit with Analytics Plus and ServiceDesk
Hi, At the moment of taking out the monthly reports to measure our performance, I have run into the problem that in many cases Analytics Plus shows LESS requests than the report I get from ServiceDesk, this is not the first time it happens and I have also tried to import again the database, however the problem persists. It seems that Analytics can't bring "certain" requests from ServiceDesk, since it always adds fewer requests and I can't match the reports: For example (all are "CREATED" requests)

SDP Mobile App and Assets Scanning
We currently have SDP premise and have the mobile app on our iPhone. We are about to perform a physical inventory of our equipment and wanted the techs to be able to scan our barcode with the mobile app to look up the device. Inside the app, I go to Assets> Scan Assets. The scanner reads the barcode but then says No Details Found. This also happens when I type in the barcode. Is there a way to do what I'm asking? If not we will have to go back to pen and paper.
