Graphical product catalog
Product list is ServiceDesk Plus currently is just a list of product names in the product list. It will be useful of instead of a long list of products, we can have a catalog including images of the product to easily identify that product within that long list. A facility to upload an image of the product would be better to browse than search for a product in the long list

Dashboard Report - SDP 7.6

How to: "order this PO - send email notification to vendor" does nothing
Sorry, here i am again. As i said before, i'm extensively testing this tool to see what's possible and what not :) So i"ve noticed that you can only make a purchase order not an enquiry. During the test i dealt with it by setting the productsprice to zero. The vendor than supposedly sends back his offer, i edit the prices and than send the actual order.This is not very user-friendly but ok it works. What does not seem to work is the following: Suppose that i've created my PO and had my vendor selected
Relabelling default form fields
Hello It would be useful for admins to be able to relabel the default fields provided for forms. For example, a service we carry out is to copy files between 2 networks since the users do not have the permissions to do so themselves. When they request the servcie they arer required to list all of the files they want copying. It would be useful to be able to relabel (e.g) the Description field from "Description" to something more descriptive of our intent, (e.g.) "File List".

Tech Manager Can't see Requests....
I have a tech who is also the manager of a group. We need him/her to have the ability to see not only the requests being handled by his/her staff, but also view the requests that have been submitted by his staff. I know that as a requester that option is there ( Requester Allowed to View dropbox ), but a technician doesn't have this as an option. Is there a way to provide that type of access? Thanks, Carlos
Mandatory resources
When creating a new service catalog form it would be useful to be able to add resources and optionally make the completion of those resources mandatory for the requestor. We have had quite few instances where the requestor has missed out on checking the rersources section of the form so we receive an incomplete form.

Default site
Hi, when receiving a request by email (over 75% of the req are made by email, by the way), no matter what settings are made, a specific site is completed automatically. That is not 'not associated to any site', but a specific site. Which is not even the first one ever introduced or the first in alphabetical order. No matter what is setup in 'requester' as 'site' No matter what is setup in 'default template' This is very annoing, as that site is a very small one and there 99% of requests are

Groups are missing
This is probably something very simple but I have yet to resolve this issue. For some reason, when a technician is filling out a ticket, there are no longer any groups to pick from. However, when I go in to Admin tools > Groups, all of the groups are defined. Thanks in advance!

Bug with $RequestLink variable
I am using SD+ 5.5.0 build 5505. There is a bug with the $RequestLink variable in the email notifications. When I try to make a change to a notification template, even when I don't actually make any changes (open the template and immediately click Save), the link gets messed up in the database. The link should look like this in the database: <a href="$RequestLink">$RequestLink</a> Instead, it adds the server website address in front of it (in this case, the server is named svcdesk): <a href="http://svcdesk/$RequestLink">$RequestLink</a>

service desk 8 worth the upgrade from 7611?
hi i am quite happily running version 7611 but have noticed that i am now quite far behind given 8010 has just been released. in the past i have quite a few issues upgrading from 1 major version to the other (often did it around version x.03, 04 so perhaps too early) and have ended up wasting days in getting things fixed. so do you think it is worth upgrading from version 7611 to 8010? i am the only person using hte system, it is virtualised so will snapshot it before doing the upgrade but still
Software Audit - underlicensing
Hi, we are about to undertake an audit of our physical assets as recorded by ServiceDesk Plus and I have a question around how a product is detected as licensed/underlicensed: Does SD only consider a PC underlicensed if it has the state "In Use" or will it consider it underlicensed if it is in any state, including user defined states? Ideally, we would only wish to consider items In Use as requiring a license, not In Store. Thanks, Ade.
Spelling error
