Form builder improvements - UI controls and layout
Are there any plans in the roadmap to improve the layout controls for the forms that we can build for service requests, incident types and (coming) change types? Once a certain number of controls is passed, it becomes helpful to be able to layout and group controls into logical groups. Without this ability the default of the tool to cram all controls into two columns makes the tool unusable. I feel this is a huge impediment to the effectiveness of SD and would like to know if this is on your radar.
Import a Single AD User into SDP
Add the ability to select a single user from AD to be imported into Service Desk Plus. Re-importing an entire OU does not always work out when you just need to add one user.
Service Requests Matrix Report
I tried to create a matrix report specific to Service Requests, with the aim of grouping the requests by service category and request template. This due to the fact that the service request template is not one of the options you can select while creating the custom report. I can create a report showing how many Application Log-in service requests were received but can't have any further breakdown. I waited for a few patches and this issue is till there. Very annoying.

Undelete or Restore Issues
If a Tech deletes an issue what happens to the data? Is it removed from the database or is it handled in a manner that is friendly with restoration of that deleted issue? I understand that backups can be restored and that is not what I'm asking.

Service Desk Plus-Want Technicians to be Requestors as well
I would like for my technicians to be able to submit requests via the Service Catalog in Service Desk Plus. How can I setup to the system to allow this to occur?
Keyword search in Requests should search in resolution/notes
Most users describe their issues in very basic terms, such that many different issues might get described as "computer crashed" or "Having problems printing". It is in the resolution or notes that the technician is able to more specifically describe the problem. Currently, performing a keyword search in Requests only produces results where the keyword appears in the title and description of the request. Changing the search to look into the resolution and notes as well would allow the technicians
ServiceDesk: Approvals tab - Description field
I have a question about the Description field under the Approvals tab. When the approver adds comments it displays under Description to a detail, but only part of it displays. While I can read the entire description by hovering over it, I would like to copy and paste it. Is there another location (within the Service Desk) that will display the entire contents of this field? Here is an example: Request 47262. The full description (aka Comments) was “We are able to provide only one set of equipment

Improvements to Solutions Module
Hi, Two things I'd like to see improved/changed with the Solutions part of the program: 1. When Searching Solutions from the Resolution tab, if you choose a solution which has an attachment, the attachment does not get attached to the ticket. I suppose to make this work, the Resolution form would need to permit attachments itself, which would be a helpful feature anyway. 2. Could the "Topic" drop-down when creating a solution use the category/subcategory/item data that already exists in the
How to configure extra ldap field map

ServiceDesk Plus host URL
We have SD+ working fine from http:\\helpdesk:8080 but wish to present SD+ also on another URL e.g. zzzhelpdesk:8080 ( this is because on a seperate site they already have another entry for "helpdesk" in their DNS) ( and change the notification emails accordingly to come from zzzhelpdesk:8080) I understand there is an URL Alias setting within the Admin, Self serve settings, but will this change the email notification template to the new address? Any help would be appreciated

Requesters via external database.

Disassociate technician groups from sites
Unless I'm missing something, could I request that technician groups be decoupled from sites? We have several technician groups which with very few exceptions consist of consistant groups of technicians across all sites. If groups of technicians & their associated email notification settings could be set up as a self contained entity, these groups could then be linked to a site rather than having to recreate them for each & every site (which is a real pain if the group changes). This would also

Submit button for a new request quite often doesn't work
I'm using Firefox 5.0.1 on MAC OSX 10.7. I quite often attempt to submit a request in the service desk and when clicking the submit button nothing happens. The reset and the cancel button work and I can type in the various fields as well as make selections in the drop down boxes but the darn submit button doesn't do anything and there is no error message indicating the problem. Has anyone experienced this? I was also getting this with FireFox 4.0 and MAC OSX 10.6. Is there a fix for this?

Ease of changes to default values
We were trying to assign a technician to a group the other day & for some reason in the particular area we were in, instead of getting the complete list of technicians, we were being presented with the default list of technicians. What became apparent after a lot of searching through the admin icons & help files is that there appears to be no easy way to change default groups / technicians / behaviours. Could this be implemented as an extra little group of icons in the admin area?
Changed Domain Controller...now cant login
So this morning our domain controller was changed to a different server. The old domain controller also had our AD users/computers on it and that has been moved to the new one also. So, now we can not login because it's a different server thus the old no longer has the AD users. Is there anyway to change that without having to move back to our old domain controller?

Service Catalog - visible to requesters?
I have a requester log in created using Self service portal. When logged in I cannot see the Service Catalog. We don't currently use the Service Catalog, I'm looking at implementing it but this doesn't make sense to me if our requesters cannot see it. Please let me know if I am doing something wrong?? Apologies if this is a stupid question! Thanks, Angela

Folding Notes & Work logs
Making request work logs & notes collapsible & expandable would make many of our requests easier to work with as they can get VERY long. Collapsed by default. Expandable on demand. Stateful.
Change the way request links are dealt with
Maybe it's just me, but although I like the idea of linking requests when they are dealing with the same subject, I always seem to ungroup them after a short while. In fact I've stopped using the facility now. If I link two or more requests I find that the presence of the link(s) is not obvious at all, and if I click on the 'Linked' button, more often than not I just get informed of a link to a single request when maybe four or five have been linked. If I follow a link and then click the 'Linked'

Service Desk Plus - Partitioning self service for multiple customers
We run a support desk for multiple companies and want to be able to partition the self service so that only certain companies can see solutions for their staff. Is this possible with the current version? I have worked out how to configure the ticket logging to be able to have multiple compaines by using the requestor config. So was hoping I can overcome this last issue.
