Change Owner restricted from viewing Requests
Good morning, We are currently using SDP 9039 for helpdesk, and we are looking into adding Change Management. What I would like to know is if it is possible to have a technician be the Change Owner in CM, but have no rights to view requests in the helpdesk side? If I create the technician without allowing login access, are they able to play the role of ChangeOwner, or do I need to create a custom role to keep them from seeing Requests? Diana
SD+ Creating requests for Technicians
Hello, We are in the midst of evaluating SD+ and so far it is looking good. Apologies if this topic has come up before - I did spend some time searching the forums, but was unable to find anything related. I suspect that either I am unaware of the exact functionality, or misunderstand the workflow/process, however: once a requester has been converted to a technician, I notice that I am then no longer able to create a request and choose the technician as the requester. Is it possible to do this? Many
ServiceDesk Update Without Backup?

SLAs - resolved vs closed
Good afternoon, If a ticket is set to status Resolved by the technician, this will stop the timer for the SLA, correct? If the technician skips the Resolved status and sets the request directly to Closed, does that also stop the timer for the SLA? If the technician sets the request to Closed, and then the requester reopens the ticket, does the timer start again as if the call has been on hold, or does it count the time that the request was closed against the SLA? For example, if the SLA for resolution

Moving from Service Request to Change Request
Folks, This is partially an SDP question and partially an ITIL question. We have requests that have come in. Some are specific requests for change (bugs that need to be fixed). Others may be feature requests that need further research and analysis. I understand that in some models, larger requests become projects and in other scenarios smaller requests are analyzed as part of the change management process. My question is, does this happen before the change request process? 1. Is a service request
