Date field improvements.
Is there any way the date entry can allow directly editing it, instead of having to use the calendar and the hour/minute dropdowns? It's often slow if all you want to do is change one thing. Also, if allowing text entry is possible for the dates fields, is it possible to allow entering things like "Now", "End of today", "Tomorrow", "In a week", "Next Thursday" and other plain language dates and times and parse them into the correct dates?
Failed Login?
Hi everyone, I'm seeing this error message flooding our domain controllers under the security logs about 2-3 seconds. Pre-authentication failed: User Name: Helpdesk User ID: Domain1\Helpdesk Service Name: krbtgt/Domain1.COM Pre-Authentication Type: 0x0 Failure Code: 0x19 Client Address: 10.121.1.12 10.121.1.12 is our helpdesk server. We're using Active Directory authentication (NOT pass through) for technicians and requesters and that's working.
A newly created service request is being duplicated over and over.
I'm currently using build 8004, but the problem appeared back with 7611 at some point in time. It goes like this: A customer submits a service request through e-mail. The program checks the e-mail account, downloads the letter and creates a service request. The letter is NOT deleted at this time. Even if I delete it manually, the service request is created again after n+6 minutes where n is the interval for checking the mailbox. And then again. And again. And so on. If another service request is
Regarding Service Catalog in Service Desk PLus
Hi, I have gone through all the features in service catalog and i have the below queries which need to be clarified: 1. Whenever the request is raised through service catalog it should not be assigned to the technician without approval from the Department Head. It is not assigned to the technician when i go inside the request and try to assign it by editing the request details, it gives me a warning but it gets assigned to the technician when i try it from the outside of the request i.e. from the
Remote Control
Hi all, It might be more a problem than a question but since i'm asking for some clarification here we go :) I'm currently using ServiceDesk plus 8.0.0 Build 8003 I noticed there is a "remote control settings" option under the Actions tab. I've configured the agent itself and pushed it to the remote computer. On the computer I can see 2 services - ManageEngine AssetExplorer Agent - ManageEngine AssetExplorer RemoteControl I did have to manually start the Remotecontrol service but its running
Problem with Requester List
Here is the scenario: I have made 2 sites: Help Desk, and Engineering. Both sites need to enter tickets for all the Company employees. Currently all the company requesters are in the "not in any site" site. The Help Desk and Engineering sites cannot view each other's tickets. Here is the problem: If I don't add the 'not in any site' group to the Engineering site, the engineers can only pick themselves as requesters. If I add the 'not in any site' group to the Engineering site, they can see all

Replies from requester open a new ticket
Any replies from a requester (me in this case) to mails sent from SDP are opening new tickets and are not being linked to the existing request. The reply from SDP includes [Request ID: ##$RequestId##] in the subject line (which parses to the correct request ID), email commands are enabled with ## as the delimiter and @@ as the trigger for email commands. Am I going wrong somewhere, or does this need fixing?? Build 8004, MSSQL on Windows 2003.

do not create new requests via email
is there a way to prevent new requests from being created when users send email? I only want new tickets to be created via the web form or by the technicians. I want to maintain the ability for email updates to existing requests. The point to this is to either call the help desk or submit through the browser as usually customers do not provide enough detail in email submissions.
Allowing service desk to append ticket coming from email client to existing ticket but prevent from creating new ticket.
Please advice if this is possible. We have tied an email account to our service desk example: support@company.com We are enforcing user to use the portal to open a new ticket but at the same time allow them to reply to existing ticket by using their email client (outlook). Our main goal is to prevent ServiceDesk automatically creating a new ticket when users are sending email to support@company.com Please advice, Thank you!
How to Close (state resolved) a Request with an Email??

Resolution notes recorded by technician
We could really use a an indicator in the resolution screen that indicates there are notes on the main request screen. Currenlty, if one jumps straight to the resolution, they may not see there are notes and either close the request when they really should not as somebody put notes with instructions, or they may not see that something has already been tried in the notes, and they waste their time. I think it would be easy and beneficial to put the Notes link on the resolution page, or move the display
Recent Items bug
We have just upgraded SDP from 7610 to 8004 and found a change / bug. When looking at the lists of requests, on the left side there is Recent Items. If that is expanded and we click on a ticket either via the recent items or the main list, that recent items list is no longer expanded. As such we are constantly having to expand it manually. This was not the case on 7610. Since our upgrade when from 7610 to 7611 to 8000 to 8004 at the same time, I can't tell you which upgrade level made that change.

restrict user view of requests
How do I retsrict users from viewing certain requests?
Upgrade field NOTES
One very very big annoyance under all our technicians is the poor "notes" window. Can you please upgrade this field so you can use all layout possibilites like the main descriptionwindow of the requests or solutions. A very good reason is that there is no possibility to add screenshots or pictures for technicians only, because the main description of the request is always viewable for the requester and also the resolution. This would be our top-upgrade priority Best regards, Mark Flothmann

Logon Page keeps appearing when changing screens
This is weird... we have one PC (Windows XP SP2) that whenever we log into the helpdesk it asks us to login, fine, but then you have to do this again, and then the home page appears, but if you say select requests, you have to login again, and this carries on for every page you try to select or link that you try to select, the pages appear OK after you login, but you have to login each time. I am sure that the problem is related to a Microsoft update as it was working fine before the workstation
Parse emails in a more granular fashion
Emails are assigned to an existing ticket when "REQUEST ID: nnnnn" is in the subject line. How about adding the ability to parse and assign emails with "CHANGE ID: nnnn" and update the Change Request? Right now it opens old tickets or a SPAM filter has to be created.

is the SLA met? did we reach the target?
Hi, I saw in the report there is no column for SLA status. there is either true or false in respond and resolution. example: 1st respond overdue status = true, overdue status = true, so SLA is not met. (fail) 1st respond overdue status = false, overdue status = true, so SLA is not met. (fail) 1st respond overdue status = true, overdue status = false, so SLA is not met. (fail) 1st respond overdue status = false, overdue status = false, so SLA is met. (success) my suggestion is to create a new column
Ticket numbers on a group basis versus a system basis
I was wondering if it would be possible to have the ticket numbers assigned on a per group basis instead of a system wide basis. For example if I had 2 Groups (A & B) each group would have their own unique ticket numbers. Group A would have tickets 1,2,3,4 and group B would have their own tickets 1,2,3,4
Chnage the email for reminders
Hello, We have an issue with email reminder. I´m part of the service desk staff and I´m in charge of create and assign all the tickets to the technicians, The idea is using the reminder option, send an email to the technician advising about a ticket that is close to expire, but If I use my user to create the reminder, all the email are sends to my email instead of technician's email. There is a way to change this behaivor ?? The version is ServiceDesk Plus 7.6.0 Thanks for your help. Wilson

FR: Different work time of support teams
Good day, In my company we have 3 groups of users that do support. Each of them has their different work schedule: Team 1 - 8:00 - 23:00 Mon-Sun Team 2 - 9:00 - 18:00 Mon-Fri Team 3 - 9:00 - 18:00 Mon-Fri The SLA time we have on ServiceCatalog Items is based on the work time of whole support team (in my case 8:00-23:00) (I just guess this, dont know this for sure). When new Request arrives after 18:00 teams 2 and 3 are unable to complete it in SLA because they are at home already. It would be great
Limiting Request ON HOLD periods
For consideration. Currently not avilable in version 7009. Would it be possible to have an option for the HOLD prioed to be enfored - i.e. When putting the request ON HOLD, an the technician is given the option of specifying for how long. Admin would be able to specify whether the option for unlimited HOLD periods are allowable.

FR: Show SLA Time in Service Catalog for Requester
I think that would be a great feature if the admins would have an option to show SLA time (from the particular Service) in the form of creating a request. I should be noticable (the size/font/color) for a Requester so he/she would know for sure when the request is going to be completed
FR: Applying ServiceCatalog Templates to Requests
Good day, Our users are used to send their requests by Email so there is no Service Catalog item is assosiated with them. That would be great if technicians can apply Service Catalog templates to the Requests made with Default Template in order to update it: Category, SubCategory, Item, Urgency, Priority, Apply SLA if NONE, already applied, create tasks that are set in ServiceCatalog.
Not-Auth in requestlist for requesters
When a non technician (so a normal requester) opens the list of his requests, some requests have for some fields a "Non-auth" content. For example the field status. So most of the of the fields of the requests are normal viewable, but some requests have this Not-Auth, even when this field has the property : "Requester can view" in the request template. Is this solvable with an update because on 1 dec. we are opening the selfserviceportal for users. I wanted to add a screenshot, but this doesn't work
Variables in Reply templates?
Are any variables available in Reply Templates? The first thing I'd like to be able to do is include the original request underneath the reply. I'd also like to be able to include other information based on the requester or the technician.
