Assigning of tickets after Business rules are run
All, We've setup some business rules to route tickets to our various site queues. This works great until you have some techs that don't check their queues for a week. Is there any way to auto-assign the tickets once they are in these site queues? If possible, using level of effort as the main load balancing medium. Thank you, Tom

Calculating the average number of requests per user per department
Any enterprise's service desk handles requests that are raised from different departments. Based on the number of requests lodged, you can determine which department needs more attention or rather needs more technicians handling their requests. Creating a report based on average number of requests per user, based on each department will answer this. Here's a video explaining how you can create this report.
Report on or Filter Ticket List by Template Name?
Hello, Is it possible to run a report or filter a list based on the Template Name? I can add the Template Name column to my list view, but it is not available to filter, nor can I sort the list by that column. I'd like to be able (down the road) to determine how frequently, if at all, Request Catalog or Incident Templates are getting used. Thanks, I didn't find the right solution from the internet.

Bug in Google Chrome 57.0.2987.133
Currently when on Google Chrome Version 57.0.2987.133, when clicking on the Reply button in a request and starting to type - after a few seconds you can no longer type unless you hit Return a few times or re-click back into the field you were typing. We have tested this on multiple computers on this chrome version and all of them have the same problem. Could this problem be looked into or confirmed? We are on Build 9224 in case this was something that was fixed between then and 9306.

Reports Scheduler - User or Global?
Hi There, I'm fairly new to ADManager Plus - We have a small team who'll administer the reporting in AD Reporting and the build in Scheduler What I'm seeing currently is that the AD Reporting Scheduler is specific to each user, meaning we're unable to modify or administer or even check the status of an AD report someone else has created in the scheduler. - I've checked the permissions in AD Delegation and I cant see an option to allow Super Admins access to all the schedulers, and I cant see an
Added 'Detailed Group Members' to the Create Schedule wizard
It would be great if the 'Detailed Group Members' report was a part of the Create Schedule wizard when selecting Group Reports. Not having it available in this wizard causes issues when I or another user that creates a Detailed Group Members report we are unable to see and modify these reports when changes are necessary. Should one of the people that created these reports leaves then no one would have access to the reports except possibly the default admin account which we do not like to use because

PostgreSQL Error
Hi, We use Qlikview to report over our Service Desk Plus postgresql database via an ODBC connector. We pull in the records using the following query: SELECT * FROM servicedesk.public.workorder Now this has been working for a while but has recently stopped because of the following error: Error: SQL##f - SqlState: 22P05, ErrorCode: 1, ErrorMsg: ERROR: character with byte sequence 0xef 0xbb 0xbf in encoding "UTF8" has no equivalent in encoding "WIN1252" I suspect this might be down to the ODBC connector

ServiceDesk Plus - Email Signatures
Hi there, Unfortunately, since our cached Manage Engine folder was re-created when Manage Engine support last resolved an issue for us, our email signatures no longer show in our replies from within ServiceDesk Plus. I've tried renaming the cached folder again so that another is automatically recreated, however this has not resolved the issue. I've also tried removing all signatures that our technicians have set up and created them again without success. Is this something anybody else has previously
