ServiceDesk Plus Spell Check Dictionary
In the recent past versions I swore there was an option to select Google as the spell check dictionary, as of now in version 9.3 Build 9335 that option is not visible if available at all, we have all our techs wondering why the built in spell check is bad and offers worse spelling/pronounce options then our own.

Alert Technician notification not working with a Business Rule
Hello, I have a business rule configured with an action of Assign to Technician and also have the notification rule on to alert technician by email when a request is assigned. The notification rule doesn't seem to be working, but the tickets are being assigned properly. The technician never receives an email. Is this not the intended function of that particular notification rule? Does the technician have to be auto-assigned in order to trigger that notification? 9.4 Build 9413 Thanks, Josh

Change the status to denied
We're looking for a way to auto change the status on an approval request that has been denied. Currently when we receive a ticket that requires approval, the help desk manually submits it to the appropriate party for approval. Generally speaking, they are always approved. However, lately I noticed that if one is denied, it returns to the regular ticket que and looks identical to a ticket that has received an approval. Is there a way to change the status on a ticket which has been denied to a denied

Mac reboots automatically after OS updates:
In MacOS High Sierra(10.13 all versions), Combo updates and Incremental/Supplemental updates for Mac comes with inevitable reboots to complete the installation. This is an inherent nature of these patches and that can not be modified using our Automated Patch Deployment definitions. As of now, you can't skip/postpone reboots. It is advisable to schedule the Mac updates to non-production hours. If you have created an APD task to deploy Mac updates, configure deployment window to non-production hours
E-mail Id(s) to Notify on Service Requests
We are wanting to use the Email Id(s) to Notify field in the Service Catalog to automatically send an email to a specific individual when a specific service request is created. When I drag and drop this field on the form, there are no options for it. Can I set a value for this field--like an email address or select a specific Requester? Essentially, when we create this service request, we want another requester to immediately get a notification about it. We're using SDP 9417. Thanks!

Stability and Reliability
Anyone else have issues with PMP? Some of my issues include: - Some of our main password reset jobs we no longer get reports. - Scheduled password reset job only runs for some resources. - Mini dump files filling up the drive from all the crashes - Schedule task resets are unreliably. If discovery fails only the AD side gets reset and report will show everything is okay. I've been working with support for 3 months on some of these issues with no end in sight. It's like every few weeks or so they
