Service Desk Plus hangs when geting large images
We had a serious issue with Service Desk Plus build 7514. Yesterday one of our client replied to a request putting in the email text a very large photo. On the server side the java process started to take 99% of cpu, and the whole application hanged. We resolved the issue by deleting the problematic email from the server. But for the future we expect Service Desk Plus to cope with such emails, or just drop them.
Creating Custom Queries
Does anyone have a good link to a tutorial explaining how I can make my own SD+ report queries?

Query for all technicians that worked on a ticket?
We have a process where a ticket may be assigned to one technician for one part of the task, and then assigned to another technician for different part of the task, then a 3rd person closes all tickets as the final signoff. We want all technicians to get credit for working on that task. If I run a report for all of "my completed tasks" for the month, I currently only get credit for those still assigned to me when it closed. Is there a way to query all of the tickets that I worked on, not just
Issue with Service Desk Plus 7.5.0 Build 7514

Secondly the contracts field description has been truncated so that you can no longer see all the information as previously in the older version
SQL database performance
We have poor SD plus performance particularly when searching and running reports - I would expect it to take a bit longer to perform these operations but it can take over 10 seconds to return a search which from our point of view is not acceptable. The database is 3GB is size and we have a maximum of 25 technicians working on it at one time. The SQL server and the front end are well over specced hardware wise and having monitored the performance of these machines whilst performing these operations
Linking an asset, tricks?
Hi, What I would like to do is link a Server Asset to a Site and when creating a request have it link to the asset automatically. The department and requesters would not have any other assets. We are going to be using the system to support an external client base, not an internal one. I am able to link the asset to the site by placing a check mark next to it and selecting Actions>Assign to Site. However, when looking at the asset and the requests tab, no requests appear. When creating a new request,

Group ID field all set to blank
We have been using the AdventNet helpdesk for a few months now and have several groups that tickets get categorized under like IT or IS, or programming request. It works fine and we've had no issues but just recently every ticket lost it's group, newly created tickets have no group and all the old ones don't either so everything is super messy now.

Two Possible Bugs?
Hi Everyone, I think I have noticed 2 bugs in service desk. I'm running Version 7513. Bug 1: I can't assign a computer / workstation to a site if a user is already assigned to it. For example, we had two laptops that were in store, and a workstation that was in use. I clicked them all, went to Actions > Assign to site. The two laptops were assigned but not the workstation. Clicking on the workstation and trying to assign the site there doesn't work either. However, in the Audit history, it shows

Questions regarding Tasks, Reports, and Mac in Assets.
Hello! First time poster on this board. I'm fairly new with SD+ so I hope you'll be kind with me if any question might look a bit stupid... ;) First off, Tasks and Reports. SD+ is somewhat new in our organisation, so we're still discovering features in it, and how we can use them and so on. I recently came across "Tasks". I thought that this would be a great way to split up a bigger Request in smaller pieces. For example, if we have a request for a new user, who needs and account, a new computer,

Double spacing after pressing Enter in e-mail.
Hi! Some month ago you fixed problem with double spacing after pressing Enter in text fields. But this issue is still presents in notification messages. While creating notification in SD Admin section (for closing request for example) there is ordinary spacing. In received e-mail itself there is double spacing. As workaround we use Shift + Enter instead of Enter. Hope in 7.6 this will be fixed.
email addresses mismatch
Hello, I don't know if this is a problem but when I imported all of the accounts from active directory the email address was imported as user@something.somewhere.edu. However, users email address is shortened to user@somewhere.edu This seems to cause the fields to be incomplete when a user request help. If a user calls the technicians can go into SDP and look up the requester by email address under create new request. Is there a way to fix this issue. As I mentioned non of the fields are populated
Multiple Workgroups/different subnets/same netbios name
We have several Labs that have between 3-10 computers each. Each location is a different workgroup name. Due to the software running each lab computer has to be named Room1 Room2 Roomn. So If I add my 10.0.1.x Room1 (adds fine) then I add my 10.0.2.x Room1 it overwrites the 10.0.1.x Room 1 Even though it's different hardware, different IP...is there a way to allow each of the Room1, Room2 to exist in my asset lists? Thought groups would do it...but no go...any suggestions.
