(SDF-80682) Incident Templates - Requester fields vanish!
Hi there, I'm having trouble setting up templates. I want the requester to see ticket details under the same headings and layout as technicians but not actually set them. Using 'Mode' as an example... but it impacts all default and custom fields. The field is present in the technician and requester template. As soon as I un-tick 'Requester can set' the field removes itself from the requester template. If I set all the fields in the technician template (with this already un-ticked) and click 'Copy

Want to make Incident - Add'l Field a Common Field
Hi, Want to make Incident - Add'l Field a Common Field so it can be selected in a Service Template as well. Since the field "End Date" was created early on (before sharing), I can now not make it a Common Field (already exists choose another name). In order to minimize the number of additional fields we need to manage, it would be helpful to associate these fields. Is there any way to do this? Cheryl Ankrom Jennmar Corporation

Use Ticket Categories to Trigger Incident Templates
Hi, I would like to suggest either an option within Incident Category creation/edit or within Ticket Template creation/edit to automatically trigger applying a ticket template to a ticket without overwriting non-blank existing fields when the category/subcategory is changed. See below for a hypothetical scenario for how this would be intended for use. If this already exists as a custom trigger, do you have an example script you could point me to I could use to achieve this? Hypothetical Scenario:

E-mail Note to Requester
Hello, A feature that would be very helpful, and was brought up by another person over 5 years ago, is the ability to check a box when adding a note to a request that says "E-mail this note to Requester" just like there is for "E-mail this note to the technician." We always update the request with notes, and check the box "Show this note to Requester" but that requires the Requester to actually log in and check the notes, which they don't. Would be very nice to have this option available (and

Update Request Subject with Custom Trigger
Is it possible to change the Subject of a Request with a Custom Trigger? For example, a user sends an email to the helpdesk with a subject line of Add Printer ABC. A Custom Trigger in ServiceDesk has the Criteria "Subject begins with (Add Printer)", and executes a powershell script to install printer ABC on the user's PC. <- That part works! However, the request that gets created in Service Desk still has the subject Add Printer ABC. I would love it if I could change the subject of that request to

API vs. Manual Action
Is there a way to distinguish which action was done via API versus any action done via UI (manual action)? The reason for this is that I am using my own Technician_Key in all API actions. The problem we have right now is that there is no fine line between a manual action and API-based action. From an audit perspective, all actions are done by me whether it's via API or via a manual action.

Auto close not working on copied requests
I just found several hundred requests that go back over 3+ years that are RESOLVED but not CLOSED. We have the 'auto-close' set to 7 days and it works on most tickets. The commonality in these is that they were COPIED from another request (apparently according to History). So it looks like auto-close doesn't run against request created via copy. A. is this a known issue? B. Is there a fix? Thanks David
