Requesters Import, Failed... Bug report
Hi, I am trying to import users from AD. Service Desk 7503 Windows Vista SP1 32bit = Firefox 3.05 = Enumerating Organizational Units in Domain It takes about 10 minutes to generate the list, and a Ctrl-A followed by a Ctrl-C on this import page shows that the list is being stored as hidden text on the page itself. The browser uses almost 1gb of memory during this operation. This may be the cause of the slowness on large lists. Importing I notice the import stays at 0 and doesn't move for hours. No

Multiple sites for a single requester in SDP 7.5?
We upgraded to SDP 7.5 upon its release a few weeks ago and really like the looks of the multi-site features, except for a couple of issues. We are a centrally driven organization rather than a distributed organization. So, all of our Technicians are located centrally, but perform services for all of the various sites. So, rather than using sites for physical sites, we defined a site as a team offering services through SDP. Our IT Team, Web Development Team, HR Team, etc, all are "sites" within SDP
Unable to view Purchase Orders
We upgrade to SDP 7.5 shortly after it was released and really like most of the features, however something got messed up with regards to our Purchase Order module. When we open the module by clicking on the purchase tab, things appear ok, but anytime we try to create a new PO or open an existing PO, we are greeted with a blank screen. I attempt to go to the Purchase Default Values and am unable to set or save anything here. I noted that addressing information, etc, was missing, so I went to the

Updating 7022.1 to 7500
Hi, 1: We successful migrate form 7.0.22.1 to 7.5 on local machine with WinXP system (20min) and updated it to build 7504.

After that we full reinstall ServiceDesk and updated it to version 7.0.22.1, restore data and try migrate again. On 98% updating stops again (See
Backup/Restore Issues
Just tried restoring my latest backup data on my test site (running 7500) to test the latest 7502 patch. have discovered the backups to be incomplete in that all my requests are gone. I have tried running the backup again but the same thing is happening, is there a bug with the backup and if so is backing up the SQL server enough to keep me going until a fix is released??
assigning a Template to a request
We are using SDP 7.5.0 Build 7504 and it really great, that we can define different Request Templates for different Request situations. But, isn't it be possible, to overwrite a request with an other template?? e.g. from the Template "Default Request" to "Change Request"??? Regards, Stephan

Heavy Use of ServiceDesk (40+Techies)
Hello, There is a possibility our ServiceDesk requirements will be expanding significantly, does anybody have more than 40 technicians running on a single SDP, if our new management proposals go through we could be looking at potentially 40 total technicians. Could there be any immediate issues with such a large number of technicians? Our current ServiceDesk is operating solely in a Windows 2003 VM Server, and is running/backing up fine without any issues (touchwood). Is there anything we should

Updating 7022 to 7.5
I have successfully updated my test system to the latest hotfix, however when I am going through the process for my live system (7022>7.5, SQL Server), the install stops and uninstalls.

Populate requester's office?
Is there a way to indicate a requester's office location without enabling multiple sites? We have multiple offices, but all have the same SLA, operating hours, etc. I just want to populate a field with which office they are located in. It seems I can do this by exporting AD users with dsquery to a CSV file, and then importing them, but that's pretty time consuming. Surely there must be a better way!
Change Approvals
Sorry for being a bit stupid here, but please could someone explain the difference between the Change Status and Approval Status within the change module in SD+? Also, how do I change the Approval Status? Even after change has been recommended, the approval status stays as N\A Thanks, Davey
Tracking Multiple Versions Under One License
Microsoft Office 2007 VLKs come with both 2003 and 2007 license keys, but either install counts towards the total allowable installs. We continue to use 2003 for most of our organization (for consistency), but have upgraded some departments and users. Is there a way Service Desk can handle tracking allocations of such installations, so that our total number of 2003 and 2007 installs can be tracked under one license, but with two different keys.
MySQL vs MS SQL for ServiceDesk Plus
Are there any features / reports / tools in ServiceDesk Plus that are only supported on one SQL db vs the other? MySQL is the default for ServiceDesk Plus, so has anyone encountered any drawbacks with running ServiceDesk Plus on a MS SQL db ? Thank you,
Site will be associated to the requester through a Departmnt
So that I understand this correctly; If I have two sites (A & B) and both have an accounts department, is account department A a separate entity to accounts department B? e.g. we have London and Paris and we need to see the results (in reports and searches) for users from each site rather than combined. This brings me to a second question; a requester working for Paris accounts transfers to the London office (or changes jobs within Paris). Do the jobs that were originally logged when they worked
Populating servicedesk fields from email
I would like to populate a servicedesk field from an email request. Specifically I would like to be able to map to the workstation field. Everything I have seen on the forums says this was in the roadmap on request published in 2006, I am hoping that this is now included...? Can you enlighten me please...>? :lol:
Request Filters
7503. Just getting the system into production and I am having trouble or have feature requests with the filter list. 1. It would be nice to be able to choose "me" from the list when the "Technician" or "Requester" is chosen as the criteria. I'd like to be able to create global filters that all technicians can see that are related to any one of them. Say, a filter than shows all of their open tickets as well as all unassigned rather than being only able to choose a specific Technician from the list.

Robo Technician / Templates
Hi, Is it possible to limit which technicians can have access to Robo Technician? Sorry to sound a bit dim here, I've inherited the system admin side of things & I've seen that all our technicians have access to the Robo Technician but I can't see an option to limit which technicians have access to this facility? Or alternatively, is there a way to limit what templates people can see under new request? We're using version 7022. Cheers,

Requester AD Import Scope
Using version 7503, the Active Directory Import of requester brings in a large number of users that are outside of core AD user structure. However, it is not importing the entire domain, so a scope is specified somewhere. I can't find it. How can I specify the AD scope for requester import?

Ability to scan offsite(offnetwork) systems
One of the reasons we bought SDPlus was the promise that we would be able to scan offsite(off network) machines. We have some 180+ sites we need to be able ti audit. When will this be part of SD Plus? To have to setup scanning through a VPN is tedious. Most of these system access web apps, and other resources and dont require VPN, but it would appear from all the posts I have seen we may need to install a VPN just to manage them. Or do we need to purchase the full AssetExplorer to take adavantage
Form for website?

Business Rules not working in 7.5
I have the following business rule that is not working, any idea why?
7504 Release - system won't start
All on test system, but first time a patch has totally knocked us out. Process went cleanly, but it refuses to allow connections once started. Note dropped via e-mail to support team, but until I know what has caused and how to resolve my feeling would be to treat 7504 with caution. Then again I may be a totally isolated case, which would be great if so. W2K3 with MS SQL 2005. Once working I'll post findings. Regards, Andy
Update sites configuration?????
Hi! When I created sites I used "Copy Default Settings" option, and all groups coped to all sites. Now I need to add extra groups to all sites, but all new groups are listing only at "Default Settings" Groups, not at any site. Hmmm, I have about 300 sites, Do I have to update all sites manually????
The rule unless so should work?
Good afternoon. For me to version 7502 did not work Notification Rule "Send Email to Technician when the Request is Re-opened by the user". But in version 7502 it has started to work, but I have a remark: In options of this rule I have specified point $Description. As a result I receive the letter that the request been opened again. But instead of $Description the request text, instead of the text of last answer of the initiator of the request is substituted. It so should be?
Group Mail Settings Not Working
I have setup some additional SMTP addresses on an Exchange 2003 email account that has been working with ServiceDesk Plus however when email is sent to the alias ServiceDesk does not place it under the GroupID specified in the Admin/Groups area. I have also tried to send emails once they are assigned to the group and the show the name and address of the original queue rather than the information specified on the group mail settings.
Backups not functioning.
Hope someone can help me. I tried to enable the scheduled backup feature recently and it did not work as it should. Backups started occurring every 10 minutes regardless of what the schedule says. I disable it and the same still happens. The drive fills up very quickly which causes other apps running on the same server to stop working. So basically I need to keep deleting these backups in order to keep the server functioning. Anyone know how to disable the backups? I already tried to open a ticket
