is it possible to create two different 'new requests' forms?
Hi @ll I am wondering if it is possible to create two different 'new request' forms? One would be a common service desk request, the other one an order form for software, access to the file servers, programs to be installed etc. At the moment we do this by order forms (paper), would be helpful to do it in the tool itself. Problem is, we have hundreds of softwares and possibilities for access, so to built this in the common service desk form would just be too much. any idea? We could do it with a
Software as items to report on
I will forward your feedback to our development team that they analyze on this and do the needful. Until then you can let us know on your requirement on the SQL query that you need so that we can assist you in getting the query.Rgds,Hima

Backup job question
Hi guys, I have a question regarding the backup process. I have set up a backup schedule in our production environment. The backup job stops the service takes the backup and starts the service. I've noticed since the backup ".data" file is larger then 300 MB that the backup job takes approximately 25 minutes. Before it took only 7-8 minutes. Also when the backup job finishes the space on the drive where SDP is installed boosts with approximately 20%. I thought that maybe it expands the backup file

Upgrade from 6 - 7...What's your definition of soon?
"Upgrade pack for customers using ServiceDesk Plus 6 will be available SOON. Please DO NOT install version 7 over version 6. You will lose your data." Is it like when you're driving home from work and your wife calls and you say, "I'll see you soon"? Or is it like a Cronulla Sharks fan saying, "We'll win the premiership soon"? PS. Cronulla have not won a premiership since coming into the top-flight Australian Rugby League competition in 1967. What is everyone's definition of soon?

Link back to request from task?
I've noticed that when I click on a task in my task list, there is no way to quickly identify what request ID the task is associated to. Is there, and I'm just missing it?? We had hoped to use tasks in such a way that all of the vital information is on the request, and technicians could complete tasks assigned to them but could also look for additional information on the request as well. For example, a user request form is attached to the request that has a host of information regarding access requested,

Can you post a screenshot of the view criteria so that i can understand it better?Meanwhile, you can try creating view with the criteria "Request Status is NOT on-hold". Additionally, i would like to know if the technicians have access to view all requests or only those in the group.rgdsAK

Removing Additional Fields
I have just applied the Upgrade to 7.0 on a text version of our helpdesk and all appears to be working perfectly. There is however, one small thing with the Assets I'd like to try to solve. Before we used to have Additional Fields on Assets and Workstations. However, with the new features added in 7.0 these fields are no longer needed, but it doesn't seem possible to remove them. How can I clean this up?

Not to let you rest now that the migration for V6 users is released - what is the roadmap for V7 now please?

When adding a work log entry, the technician pulldown should default to the technician logged in and typing, not the technician the ticket is assigned to.

Catgeory levels in reports
Weve reently implemednted SDP and I'm refining call categories and sub-catgeories. When running reports, I only appear to be specific to the first sub-catgeory level (i.e catgeory = application, sub-category = accounts). We have in a couple of instances become more granular and have a furtther sub-category of Db lock (under accounst sub-category). But I cant see this when I use the search filer. Can you only go down 2 levels on categories when report filerting (i.e catgeory and sub-category) ?

Bug in setting asset to None
I had a call which I duplicated with the requestor's asset assigned to the call. I opened each duplicate call in turn, chose the top most Edit function and changed the requestor and since the asset was now incorrect hit the + icon and changed it to None and hit Save. I then change the description, delete an attachment and hit Update. However, on the call details screen the asset has reverted to the original asset, not None. I have to click the asset name and choose None from the dropdown menu to

Software licenses in 7 vs Software license assets in 6
In v6 I was using custom fields in my software licenses/assets to track additional info. If I'm not wrong, in v7, software assets are now resources of type software. When I open the detail info of a software asset/license/resource, v7 doesn't display my UDF fields. I ran a query and can see that the data is there, but SD+ doesn't display it. On the other hand, computers, which are now also resources, do display my UDF fields. Is it a bug in my migration or is it by design?
SDP 7 search
Is it possible to have a search box that will search everything, including the description please? I find it rather tedious having to manually go through requests to find the one I am after.

Assets Module - Bar Code Field & In Store w/ Dept Assign
Hi, We'd like a couple of ammendments to the Assets Module if possible: 1. When creating Workstation Reports, you cannot currently select the Bar Code field (You can for Resources). We'd like to produce Asset Acquisition and Disposal reports which will require both Serial Number and Bar Code (our organisations Asset label). 2. Bar Code is not available as a column in the Assets - Workstation List View. This would be handy as we have independent asset labels as physical identifiers. 3. Currently a
