SDP - Keep X Automated backups
I would like the ability to configure the automatic backup feature to only keep X number of backups. This would be independant of the schedule. My case: I run backups weekly. I really only want to keep 2 or 3 around. Currently, I have to go periodically and prune backups I no longer need. I would like SDP to do the cleanup for me and have an option to keep a certain number of backups around.

Conditional Access to Set Certain Priority Levels
We would like to see a feature where we can define a priority level and specify that the priority level can only be set by say users with the SiteAdmin role. There are cases where we do want to be able to assign a request a longer than usual SLA but we want to restrict who has the ability to apply this SLA so it is not abused.

Data Clean up and Archive functionality
I have been trying to clean up our groups and categories and as you know I have to get rid of all uses of a category or group before the system will let me get rid of a group or category. <complaint> groups do not have the 'mark for no further use' functional deletion that categories have </complaint> It was suggested to me that perhaps by archiving all old tickets prior to the categorization and group refactoring would allow me to delete the unused groups and categories. Will this work?

Windows 7: Asset Scan does not work
Hi, I changed for testing my computer from Windows XP to Windows 7. Since this moment, the asset scan does not work any more and reports back DCOM problems. I have tried moreless everything which is posted in the forums, but it seams that no one is using Win7 with Service Desk Asset scan yet. Dos anyone has an idea, why the scan does not get through? by the way, manual scanning does work and reports it's result back to the SD-Server. Kind regards Thomas
Mobile Client: missing features
When accessing the Service Desk Mobile Client from a Blackberry, I am missing a couple of things. Would be great to consider them for a future release of SD+: Login form login credentials are not being saved - takes much time on a BB to enter all information over and over again if there is only 1 domain entry in the domain-menu, it should be selected by default if there is a domain present, the checkbox "Is AD auth" should be checked by default Request details It's not possible to view the conversations.
API key generation for usage with REST
I would like to add and view requests via the REST API. Unfortunately I'm finding the lack of information and examples a little frustrating. In Admin -> General -> API, under the Rest API tab, it states that "The API key is generated under Admin -> Technician." Unfortunately, that location does not exist. Its closest match is Admin -> Technicians. I don't see anywhere I can generate an API key though. Can anyone please help me find generate an API key?
System Log Viewer 404 error
When I go into the system log viewer I see 10 items i the list by default. However if I try to change the view to a longer list of items or if I try to click on the next page button I get the following: 404 - File or directory not found. The resource you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable. What causes this. I assume the system logs are somewhere in the db and since I can see the current 10 why would I get this error?

OEM Operating System Licence
We have a number of Windows 7 workstations. Some were purchased with an OEM copy preinstalled, some were installed with a volume license. in the software licences section of ServiceDesk we can see that these OEM machines appear with identical product IDs (12345-OEM-12345678-12345) Is there anyway to have SD recognize these OEM product IDs and not require us to assign them a license? creating licenses (either single or OEM) does not work as these licenses are applied to all the machines regardless
Agent installed but machine has been formatted
Hi, We have a number of machines "in store" than we've formatted and at some point in the future will re-issue them. The problem we have is that these machines in the past had the Agent installed and we have no way of uninstalling the agent as the machines have been formatted. Is there some way in ServiceDesk Plus that we can go into each asset and tell it that the Agent isn't installed so it doesn't show up under "Agent installed workstations"…maybe using a report query with SET? Thanks, Steve

Tasks and ServiceCatalog
We are planning to use the ServiceCatalog. In the workflow tasks are a major element. A bug found is that in these tasks the field GROUP is available but the selectionlist is EMPTY The list technicians is normaly filled. When creating a task in a normal request those groups can be correctly found. We are using 8004 in production and 8005 in test. Can you please correct this in the next release? Because this is absolutely necessarily needed before we can use the ServiceCatalog. Best regards Mark
