Extra Feature ?
I think it would be useful that on the request screen you have a visual indication of where the call is in relationship to it SLA conditions, this would make it easier to see what is going to breach SLA next by simple colour scale of green, amber, red Also the ability to edit the name / department once a call has been created
External barcode reader
Hi, i was wondering if there will be any possibility of an external barcode reader as option. When we do our inventory for rooms etc... We would like to be able to use a mobile barcode reader (ie: palm with barcode reader or symbol reader). Is this foreseen for a future release? Many thanks for a super software. John
Outgoing notifications failing
In response to a new request, when I try to email a requestor who has an email address that is not in our domain, I receive a �Sending notification failed� error message. However, replies to users within our domain are working just fine and Service Desk Plus accepts incoming mail requests from any domain. Any suggestions on this outgoing email issue? Thanks, Amy
Error durning domain scan
I get the following error on certain PCs while performing a domain scan. Either access denied for the user or the remote DCOM option might be disabled in the workstation. What are my possible solutions?
Data Base
Does anyone know where this help desk stores its data. Does it need a data base backend?
Survey Reports
I am not able to run any survey reports and when I open a closed request and select view survey results it brings up a blank survey form. I really like the product and think once a lot of the requested functionality is added this software will be a huge hit. Any idea when the next update will be released? Cheers, Michael
address book when sending replies
is there an option that will allow us to click on a user's name via the Requestors database in ServiceDesk that will allow us to add a user's email address when "Emailing the Requestor"?
Scan workstation
I have a network with Active Directory and Windows 2003 server. I noticed that the SCAN worksation for XP PCs works only if the firewall is disabled. I have tried some tricks on the exceptions of the firewall but nothing works. Can you advise me what settings should I change on the firewall or if it is possible to control it through Group Policy?
WHEN IT IS THE SPANISH VERSION

Question about the New Release
Is it possible to have Mode be available in the Rules for SLA (Services Level Agreements)? This would help in classifying how we distribute support. Also having Seperate ALL or OR's for the SLA Rules would help in the classification of catagories.
Feature Needed: Organizing Workstations.
It is great that you can organize assets, but one has very little control over the organization of workstations other than grouping by domain. I would like to have several different views of my workstations: Servers, Desktops, Laptops (organization by device type) Sales, Customer Support, Administration, Marketing (organization by department) David.
Some Problems
Dear Supporter, The followings are my problems when upgrade Service Desk to version build 4112: - AD authentication is very good, but problem occurs when you assign roles for each technical to control there roles. I think we should control by group in AD. - In the old database we've got requesters. When we import from AD to our database again, it don't replace exist user, it's add as new user to our database. - when we scan workstation in our system, It's cannot. - When we configure audit option
Survey
Can a submitted survey be changed. We are using the rating 1-5 and some people thought that the number 1 was best and 5 was the worst. I would like to change these to be correct.
AD User Import by Group
Is it possible to import users from Active Directory based on which groups they belong to? We have certain members of staff we wish to use Service Desk and those who don't. They are already defined in Active Directory and we only wish to import into Service Desk those in a particular group. Can this be done? Andrew
Unable to change Due By date
I installed SP12 this week and just noticed that after entering a request, I am unable to change the Due By field. I try to edit the request and click on the calendar next to the Due By field and nothing happens. Will this be fixed in the upgrade due out next week? Or am I doing something wrong, before the SP12 install, I was able to change the Due By date with no problem.
problems deleting obsolete software and adjusting licesences
Good Day, I didn't see this listed in the post so here it is. I actually have two questions. 1. When I try to delete obsolete software from the scanned software in the inventory, it asks if I am sure if I want to delete the software, then it just refreshes the screen and the software is still there in the inventory list. Do I need to do anything else to remove the software license from the inventory? 2. How do I demote the number of licenses issued to a particular piece of software? All I can find

Hi all! I have problem with Cyrillic charset in ServiceDesk. If I post requiest by Web - all OK, but if request posted by mail fetching - I've only "????????" in Title and description and in mail notification... How can I define charset for mailfetching?

Fetching issue
I am having a problem with the "fetching" feature grabbing emails and creating requests. I originally set up my email as the email to fetch from and it was pulling the emails and creating requests. The issue was that it would grab any email and create a request. I set up a new email called helpdesk and have end users emailing issues to this account and it will not "fetch" the emails. I did make the change in the mail server settings page and it simply doesnt function correctly. Please help as this
Remove "new task" from requestor page ?
This "REALLY" confuses my users as we used to have a "Task List" in outlook that people submitted IT tasks for us to complete. So when people log in they instinctively click "new task" and obviously these dont get to us, I would like to just remove them from their view. Can I just edit the pages in some way ?
Assign button needs top be clicked twice.
When a request is being reassigned from one technician to another, the "Assign" button needs to be clicked twice to make the change.
Reports- Help Desk
Is there any way to customize the reports for the helpdesk? I would like to filter some records based in the value of the custom fields. also it would be nice to have an option for the type of request (Change, Incident or Problem). A little more ITIL oriented

Feature Request: Technician grouping
We need the ability to have different groups set up for technicians so that a request can be assigned to a general group of people. These techs would then be notified by email that their group had been assigned a request. Someone from the group would pickup the ticket and run with it. As it stands we are having to pick someone on a team to assign a ticket to, which isn't always practical if they are on vacation or sick etc. Would this be possible? Thanks, Caerie
Jump to OpManager
Not sure if this falls under an OpManager or SP+ problem but then I use the Jump To menu at the top of the screen in SP+ I always get a session timed out window for OpManager. I never get this the other way as I've entered SP+ login criteria in OpManager which gets me admin access to SP+. Any idea why I keep getting the session timed out messages coming from SP+ to OpManager?

Sp12 Fails on Build 4109
Just attempted the Service Pack 12 install. It failed and rendered Service Desk inoperable. The last scrolling line before the command window closed stated something about being SEVERE: in the SQL database I believe. Fortunately I performed a backup just prior to the upgrade or so I thought...... The restore of the database cannot be performed. Build 4112 states that the database from 4109 is incompatible. Any thoughts? Tony
