Moving sub-category under different category
I'm pretty sure this type administration isn't available from Service Desk interface but I was wondering if I could manually (SQL Server) move a sub-category underneath a different category? Has anybody ever had to do this? Does SD have any nice little utility programs or SQL Update scripts that would help us preform this? Thanks Jerry
Adding new licenses - SDP 7018
I hope that this is not me being really dense here but how does one add software licenses outside the PO system. I have looked and looked and cannot find it. The Help screen says: From the software view list page -> Click Create New link -> select Software License option. This opens Add Software License page. Select the Product Name from the combo box. If the product name is not available in the list select Add New link to add the product. specify the Product Name in the given field. This is a mandatory
Adding a new item in a PO
Can you please add a "Manufacture" field to the form when you add a new item in the Massive, un-sortable and every item in your DB list when trying to create a PO req. this not being in there then forces you to go into the item list and edit every single new thing you enter. Since you are unable to completely enter all the information when you first create the item this can lead to very long updating times depending on how many new items there are.
Monitor Serial no.
Hello, We are currently on SD+ Build 7015. As workstations are scanned and information on workstations monitor is populated, it seems the serial no. is no. While I understand that if the information is provided through WMI, it will populate following a scan of a workstion however; if we need to add the serial number manually, when you edit a workstation, the serial number field does not appear. It would seem the only way to do this on SQL database is to enter the information on the dbo.MonitorInfo

Scheduled email notifications
How can I schedule email notifications in SDP? I would like to send an email 3 times a week, every week. The email is to notify our users that their PCs will be rebooted giving them a 24, 48 and 72 hour advance notice. What I've done to try to implement this: 1) Set up a Preventive Maintenance task that will create a request every Wed, Thurs and Friday. 2) Created a fake technician and placed it in the requestor field. 3) Since a request will be created based on the PM task, I figured I'd simply

Request 'Reply' Functionality...
Within the request there is a 'Reply' drop down box that has the following actions: - Reply - Forward the Request - E-mail the Technician - SMS the Technician This is somewhat confusing... First, I think the button should read 'Notify' because the actions are basically just starting email/SMS threads. Second, I would remove the 'Reply' action under this drop down and move it to the 'Actions' drop down. Third, I would also add the 'Reply' action to the SDGuest role, so that users, can reply in the

Several Issues.. Support Form, Technician/Users, AD Import
First issue: I'd submit these via your support form, but I think your CAPTCHA is broken. It keeps prompting for a new verification code when you hit submit. Second issue: Changing a requester to a technician then removing the technician causes the user to be removed. Is there a way so that a technician can be changed back to a user without deleting that user? This causes headaches as the user may have items associated to them. Third issue: When importing from Active Directory, users aren't being
Managing old and discontinued Products
We need to be able to remove old and discontinued product associations with vendors or hide old and discontinued products without removing the history of the purchase. The only solution I've seen so far(provided by SD below) removes the product, but also removes it from any PurchaseOrder thereby leaving no audit trail...not very good practice. With the implementation of the new list based view in the Purchase Order screen it will not be long before it becomes unmanageable and difficult to use as

Then ticked the box "Requests technician is allowed to view: All in group & assigned to him" I have created a Technician and assigned this role to them. When the tech logs in they cannot see all requests for the group. They see all their own requests, any assigned to them...and a few of the others from their department. But not all of them. Any ideas?

Build 7018 - Purchase Order Numbering with Multiple Techs
Found this morning that the automatic numbering of purchase orders is specific to each technician. I set the default value to start numbering at IT-00012. It did it for me only and reset itself back to 1 for the next tech that started to create a PO. Now when I look at the default start value, it's set at 1 instead of IT-00012. This is going to be a big problem going forward.... Any chance we can get this fixed asap?? Tony
