Business View
Hi, We have a view of all our sites and they show as green, amber or red - depending on the issue. Recently I added extra devices to a few of the sites but when they alert and change colour within the view, they don't change colour on the main screen (see attached). Additionally, the Business View on the home page used to show the entire map of all our sites but now it cuts off the bottom half of the map - is there any way to fix this (also attached)?

Script to Change Request Status using Custom Trigger
Hello, I've recently installed the ServiceDesk Plus 9405 update. I've found that in the Custom Trigger is present the "When a new reply received" condition. We need to create a script that change the Request status from for example "On Hold" to "Open" when we receive a reply from the requester related to the Request itself. Actually We have set just the condition "When a new reply received", the criteria "Status" is "On Hold", but I don't know how to write the script to change the status of the related

Include "Share Requests" in the custom views
Hello, we are beginning to use the "Shared Requests" feature of SDP. It appears to have great benefits and use, however - we can currently only view shared requests from the "View your shared requests" filter It would be very helpful if we were able to create a "custom view", which also allowed for the selection of "shared requests" to be included in the custom requests view. This way technicians could view all of their relevant requests, including those that have been shared with them, but are assigned

What happened to the April Cumulative for Windows 1709? (KB4093112)
Hello, Last weekend I saw that DC was nicely updated with all the latest April patches and I decided to wait until today to apply them. Last Friday - DC reported this patch was there and ready to be deployed: https://support.microsoft.com/en-ca/help/4093112/windows-10-update-kb4093112 A check of my WSUS server says the same and it still lists this patch as ready to apply to 4 machines However - today - DC has no sign of this patch. What is going on? Has it been pulled? Appreciate an update on what
How can I turn off the popup notifications on the client desktop machine?
I am test driving the Desktop Central system on a couple of machines, and i note that the popup notification comes up a great deal. How can I turn this off?
Is there a way to stop automatic updates for particular machines?
We have a few wallboards that a cell centre use for statistics. However, when the ManageEngine popups come up, asking to restart for updates, it blocks an important part of the wallboard. Is there a way to install updates say once a fortnight, or stop the popup altogether for these particular wallboards? We would like to avoid placing these machines into a separate OU and applying different update schedules to that OU.

Inventory Alert for Add/Remove of machines
Good afternoon, i have been asked to keep an eye on how many machines are being added/removed from our opmanager on a daily basis. Is it possible to setup a notification for when a machine is added to the monitoring either manually or automatically during scan? We are a Hyper-V house and we have certain teams that seem to be creating VM's on an hourly basis. i need to be told when Opmanager starts monitoring them. Many thanks
How to change Request Status Automatically
Hello, On our ServiceDesk platform, I've created some Requests status, some of them are releted to specific Hold, for es. "Waiting for user info" or "Waiting for Supplier Info". Actually the change status in a specific request is made manually, for es. from "Open" to "Waiting for a user info" and vice versa. My question is: there is a way to change the request status form "Waiting for user info" to "Open" automatically when the requester reply back (for es. via email) to a specific request? Thanks
FCR Freedom Problem
So if I a Tech CAN flag an FCR in an Incident at ANY time, how are we supposed to determine if it's valid? They are basically free to check it at any time. If I check a request as FCR, Request gets closed, Re-opened flag gets set, FCR gets unchecked, Tech resolved, Sets FCR AGAIN. I can use reopened flag=yes as a filter but it doesn't happen enough to be statistically influential. What are the odds of finding "FIRST FCR" flag set? Does that get set anywhere in the history maybe?
Is it possible to disable the Reply and Forward buttons under certain conditions?
Folks, there are two different use cases here: 1) FORWARD: We still have technicians who use the FORWARD button to try to send a ticket to another queue, causing the dreaded endless loop. We would like to disable the button for technicians. 2) Reply: I would love to be able to disable the function of replying until the technician has picked up the ticket. This isn't how everyone works, but in our environment, our techs are eager to reply to the user and get to work. However, this eagerness causes
Your new "OS Imaging" module completely kills Windows Deployment Services (WDS)
Hello, I have been using use Desktop Central on a Windows 2012 R2 server that is also using WSUS, MDT and especially WDS - for allowing my Windows 10 client machines to do OS upgrades and to allow new computers to use PXE boot to get the latest Windows 10 image for use.

Problem with encoding
Hi all. The problem is as follows. When creating a new task (only tasks, everything is OK in the applications), the subject of the letter does not recognize the Cyrillic and special sympholes type "() _- * / etc." which is taken from the variable '$ TaskTitel' and the text written in the subject template is passed to normal. The variable $ TaskTitel in the body of the message passes the values in normal form, rather than the UTF-8 codes. This error occurred after the update 9403

Three years on and no solution for removing email addresses to be notified upon ticket closure (Feature ID SDF-58130)
The issue outlined in the following three year old post is still a major problem... https://pitstop.manageengine.com/portal/community/topic/permanently-remove-email-addresses-from-cc-field In my estimation, this is less of a feature request and more of a major development oversight. It's been three years. When is this glaring problem going to be fixed?
File Scanning not working

Hello, I want to prepend a Resource field in front of whatever the user typed into the Description. However, when I run my script (On Form Submit), it prepends multiple times, and I only want it to appear once.

Duplicate audit emails
Hi, I'm just reporting this; I already found the problem. Immediately after upgrading from 9.101 to 9.600, I began getting my daily "audit digest" emails twice. I checked the scheduled tasks, and for both "Resource Audit Digest" and "User Audit Digest," "All Administrators" was checked off in the Notification section. It wasn't that way before the upgrade, as I am the only one supposed to get the reports. Thanks, - Steve

Export reports/dashboards between databases
We had a sync issue and ended up removing the sync between SD+ and the cloud version. We created a duplicate of the old database to retain the custom reports and dashboards. Question: Is it possible to export a report or dashboard from one cloud database to another? and how do we prevent these data syncs in the future? This has now happened twice in the 4 years we've had the service. Each time the only action and support we receive is to do a complete removal of the sync. Needless to say, it's a
