With one email address, we cannot login to multiple organizations of Service Desk Plus Cloud.
With one email address, who has already joined to another organization cannot to join our organization. We cannot do what we can do in the other cloud service such as "Salesforce". We use it in communities to build an ecosystem with several companies. With each own one email address, we want to make "ServiceDeskPlus Cloud" available in various domains, regardless of the service usage in each company.
Set Standard Subject in SDP CLoud
I would like to know how I can have a Service Desk template that asks for certain information NAME, COMPUTER_NUMBER, etc. and then upon Submit it changes the subject line to something like: Subject: NAME has been assigned computer number: COMPUTER_NUMBER That way, all requests made by that Service Request Template all have the same subject format as well. I did this with Execute Script in form rules with On-Prem, but can't figure out how to do this in the cloud. Thanks,
Dashboard Widget - Requests by Group
I love the new dashboard layout and widgets to create your own. This is working out well for us. However, I've noticed that I don't have a widget to sort "Requests by Group". This would come in really handy for us since I assign tickets by group to most area. Thank you.
View Tasks and Requests on One Screen
Is there a way to see both the requests and tasks that are assigned to you on one screen? Unless I am missing it, my team and I have to check under requests and tasks to see what is assigned.
SDP User Introduction
Has anyone drafted any documentation to be shared with users introducing SDP and the basics of how they can use the product. I figured I would ask the group before starting from scratch to develop my own. BG
SDP and Email filtering
Is anyone using the ServiceDesk Plus hosted version with any email content filtering apps like Barracuda, or Mimecast. I would like to hear how you got around the email configuration of the appliance not connecting.
Incident Template
We receive automated emails into ServiceDesk Plus from a system which are logged as incidents using a specific template. However, the requester is set to the senders email address and we would like to change this to another requester automatically. Can Service Desk Plus do this? If so, how?
Mandating a Field for Announcements
Hello, I was wondering if its possible to have a few specific fields mandated when users create announcements? I know its possible for templates but I can't seem to find it anywhere for announcements. For example, I would like to make "Announcement Type" field required before an announcement is created. Thanks!
Error with Mail Fetching

Ability to add notes to contracts
It would be great to be able to add notes to contracts as a way to document progress on renewals or to log decisions about the contract. ie. We are not going to renew this.
Requesters Close or Resolve their own tickets?
It is possible for a Requester to close or mark Resolved their own request? I've given them edit access of the Status field. However, when creating a request the only option is Open - which I guess makes sense. However, what if a person fixes the issue on their own, and no longer needs the request? I can't seem to find the right access to allow this, unless they are a technician.

[SOLVED] Project gantt should use custom views
I'm trying to figure out how to make use of custom views for the project list when in Gantt view. This would be of great benefit to me as I have around 30 projects in my IT division which then fall under 5 smaller teams that I manage. I have a custom view for each team so I can see just the projects in the list for that team. However, switching to Gantt view is not very helpful as it appears to just show projects for all IT divisions under it and I must manually select all the projects I want to
Tab order in the "New incident" form does not include the recently modified "Site" and "Technician" fields
These two fields were modified in a recent update. Prior to the update, when on the "Department" field, pressing tab would put the focus on the "Site" field, then on the "Technician" field, and then on the "Category" field. Now the two affected fields are skipped, going from "Department" to "Category" directly. And if you cycle the full tab order of the form, the two fields are never touched. Please review and solve this. It is just renumbering the tab order, this task should not take a developer

Help with Archiving old requests
I am trying to set up Archiving. I've set it to archive Closed Only, Closed over 1 year ago. So we have heaps of tickets that can archive. But nothing Archives. Am I supposed to set a schedule somewhere. The Help says... "Click on Save button to save the configurations. The archiving process starts at the specified time and repeats after every mentioned period." I'm not sure what it means by "Specified Time". I have not seen anything anywhere that allows me to specify a start and repeat time.

Automatic report on last day of the month
Hi, at the moment I can only set the monthly Schedule on day 30 or 31 (or 28/29 for February). Months without a 31st day are skipped when I select "On 31 day" and when I select "On 30 day" my report isn't complete because it's missing a day. So at the moment I have to change it each month. It would be nice to have an option "On last day of the month". Thanks in advance!

ServiceDesk Plus On Demand API V3 - Error with adding attachment to Request
Hi, I have a problem with adding attachments to requests using the API V3. The attachment seems to be uploaded (status code 200), but it does not appear on the Request screen. It is important that: This is with ME SDP On Demand. When ME SDP On Demand used the earlier API, I could successfully attach files to a Request. Authentication is fine, I can create a request using the API. I suspect that the problem is that (according to the documentation https://www.manageengine.com/products/service-desk/sdpod-v3-api/SDPOD-V3-API.html#add-attachment-to-a-request),

[SDP Cloud] Request "On hold" to "Resolved" after X days
Hello Support. We need ServiceDesk Plus Cloud to change automatically the request status from the "On hold" status to "Resolved" after "X" days after the "On hold" ticket has been established. This is an example of what we need: The technician receives a ticket. The technician responds via email to requester and sets the status "On hold" ticket. The user never responds to the requested information. If the user does not respond in less than 5 days, we need the ticket to automatically pass from the

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?
How do I color code my list of tickets based on status
Hi Team, Not sure if this is possible or if it's a feature request, I'd like the list of tickets in the "Requests" tab to be able to be color coded based on the "Status" field.

API Interface
I am not sure whether this is the correct place to ask or if the question itself is correct. I know API functionality is available in ServiceDesk Plus. Is there an API Interface available separately for ServiceDesk Plus? I think our point is we are trying to integrate ServiceNow and ServiceDesk Plus so there could be transfer of information between the two. I hope my question is clear
