Create request when email sent from server but not user
We have the functionality of creating requests from emails turned off for our users....they can only create a request by filling out the SDP request template. However, I would like to allow the creation of requests from an email from a server only. For example, a request would be created when a server sends a notification email of a down service to SDP. The email address would be consistent. Is it possible to allow the creation of requests from email based on email address? Thanks.

Serach by Request ID number no longer works after upgrade 7606
I'm positive this used to work before the upgrade.. On the left hand side under "search", if you set your search in to "Requests", we used to be able to enter the Request ID number and it would return that request. Now, it does not find anything. Can anyone else confirm that pre7606 this works and in 7606 they are not getting any result?
Password in clear text in URL
When manually logging in to the helpdesk, the user password is exposed in clear text in the url is the address bar when the login fails. This is passed over the network, and visible on screen. This is rather insecure, as exposing passwords with minor typing errors in them give a very good clue to the correct password. ie.: "?j_username=testusername&j_password=TESTPASSWORD"

What modification to a request is considered a 'response'?
Hello all, I've recently enabled the response SLA measure within our organisation (previously only using resolution). At what point is a request considered to be 'responded to'? What needs to be changed in the request? An example: A request logged by a user has been assigned to a technician, had it's priority set, and had a public note added, and it still breached the response SLA.. Many thanks!
Report of any technician who has handled a call
Hello I'd like to run a report which pulls out in .xls format details of logged requests where any technician has handled the request (we don't fill in the work log). ie their name appears somewhere on the History tab Essentially the type of data that I want to pull out is: title, description, priority, department, status, category(inc sub category and item), overdue flag, time spent, due by, created, completed Is there a report which already does this?
Search resolutions and notes
The one feature that I would really like to see added to ServiceDesk is to have the resolutions and notes included when performing a search of requests. As I mentioned in a previous request before the release of version 6, the description field is usually supplied by the users themselves or from our techs after an initial contact with the user. Because of this, the description is usually very general, like "my computer/application crashed" or "I'm getting an error message". It is generally only after
Global view - technician tried to view and now can't get back to My View
I've poked around and see that Global View is only available to Administrators, still. Now I have a technician who clicked on Global View and cannot get back to the My View screen because Home only displays a blank page. What does he need to do to restore his original view? And when will Global View be an option in Roles so we can allow those other than administrators access?

GL Code Problems
After adding a number of GL Codes I am not able to modify the existing entries. I am also not able to do anything in the purchase screen as well. Because I coped the details for each GL Code from a spreadsheet, is it possible that I copied a hidden character that SDP has a problem with? How do I purge the list of GL Codes I have now and start over again?

Adding notes when reassigning to a different technician
Would like to propose/request a change when re-assigning a request to a different technician, to have an "Add Notes" field in the Request Details section, rather than having to reassign the request and then clicking on the 'Add Notes option within the toolbar. This would provide a much quicker option of adding notes to inform technicians of the status of the request or work already carried out. Thank you. Kind regards, Jon

Can you auto update call status on email reply receipt
Is there a way to automatically update the call status to "waiting for response" if you send out an email from SDP using the reply button? Alternatively if you receive a reply from a requester, can you auto-update the call status back to something else such as "response recieved"? This would make call views easier to manage if you were only worried about actioning tickets you had received replies to. Many thanks, Dean
Mass Change Status from Reports
Is it possible to mass change multiple requests from the report interface? We are trying to accomplish simple billing from ServiceDesk, and I would like to be able to change the status of all requests within a report from "Resolved" or "Closed" to "Billed" so as to ensure we don't accidentally bill twice for the same request. Is there a way to do this, or could something like this be implemented in the future? Thank you, LK

Search is not searching resolutions
When you do a search for a keyword, it no longer seems to be picking up keywords in the resolution. We are pretty sure it worked before, but we just upgraded to 7012, and now it doesn't seem to be working. Search works, but it only seems to be picking up what is in the "request" field, but not the resolutions. Search has always been a little weak spot in the software, but this makes it really dysfunctional. Anyone else seeing this?

Why I had to type it? FF must take it from my system by NTLM password hash. But using simple wireshark util I get nomber of http-packets with NTLM falses and as a resoult simple
requester ticket re-open
When a ticket is re-opened today it just lets the person that resolved the ticket know it was re-opened. The problem is that if this person leaves on vacation the ticket gets lost until he returns. So can this be changed or have an option to have the re-opened ticket changed to the "unassigned" list and have a flag on it of some sort so that the person/group that monitors the unassigned tickets know that it was re-opened ticket because it may have a higher priority with that companies SLA.
software management - new software
I get alerts on the prohibited software which is great, but you have to change a newly scanned software to the prohibited category to get the alert. So you have to always check the software list, which is a lot of babysitting and most of us don't have the time to remember to check this. But an alert would be helpful to us to let us know of something new that was found. So can you make an option with the new/unidentified software alert much like the preventive one?

We have not renewed our license with Service Desk Plus because our institution is forceing us to use Remedy. We had built up a decent little knowledge base and we want to be able to access that data, even if we can't create or maintain tickets or new knowledge base items. Is there a way to access this data, even if in read only form? Is it in a file somewhere? Thanks, Kevin
