Incoming Email Handling
Hi all, I am having issues with how SDP handled incoming emails and I can't find anything in the admin settings of where I can change this. All tickets are coming in as Urgent and not a standard SLA of 5 working days etc. Please could someone advise me how and where I can change this please. Many Thank Ali
Custom SLA (or trigger)
Looking for assistance in building out some new rules for tickets created in our environment. Currently we only receive tickets in via email. 1. I was hoping to create a rule or SLA that would generate an alert (email) within 2 hours if the ticket had not been assigned to a technician and a top level category assigned. We currently have subcategories and it seems to me you can't leave that blank if you select a top level category for a new ticket. 2. Once it's categorized create SLA's that generate

Email merge using .xls
We frequently receive access requests for new users prompting a series of emails that are identical excepting the user credentials. If I have 10 tickets and I need to send out two emails each that are identical except for the UN/PW a mail merge is the most efficient way to do this. Is there a way to do this using Service Desk or do I need to go outside of this application and use another program to do this?

Listing of keyboard shortcuts
In a recent discussion someone mentioned that pressing n twice is the keyboard shortcut for adding a note while in a request. This is very useful and I'm assuming there are other keyboard shortcuts available. Is there any documentation on all the available keyboard shortcuts? Thanks!

Task attachments
Hello, Where on the server is SDP storing task attachments? Within the fileAttachments\Request folder? Are these attachments moved to fileAttachments\ArcRequest when the associated request and therefore the task is archived? What if the task is not associated to any request? Where are the task attachments stored in that scenario? Best regards, Demetrius
Identifying Incident or Request through variable
What is the method used to differentiate an Incident from a Request in the technician request list? There is an icon there that shows whether it is Incident / Request, but I can't figure out what it is that it is triggered by? Is it some internal flag trigger by which catalogue the ticket is raised from? The minor thing I'm trying to resolve is that when a ticket notification is sent to the technician we want to have an identifier in the notification to say whether it's a request or incident. I was

SDPlus - Contract import fails to parse xls date
I have tried to import contracts (to save time) and would have been quicker entering them manually! The xls is saved with date format yyyy-mm-dd, but I keep getting this parsing error: Date parsing error : Unparseable date: "19 Nov 2017, 00:00:00" I have tried (many times) to use the failedContractsList.xls - when I open it the date appears as 19 Nov 2017, 00:00:00. I delete the ", 00:00:00" but the error keeps happening! BTW I am using Office 2016.

Adding Approval Request message to the ticket thread?
Is there currently any way to have the system automatically capture a copy of the approval message that was sent to the approver? For example, a requester is requesting an item be purchased. The request goes into SDP, then a technician picks it up the ticket and send it off to a manager for approval. The approval request could look similar to the fake email below. To Michael, Subject: Approval required for a request I have a request for 1 license of Sublime Text Editor, could a new license be

Include date and time when forwarding a message
When forwarding a message in Requester Conversations, it would be very helpful if the date and time of the original message were included like most email programs do. As it stands now it looks as if I'm simply resending the same message.

Improving Performance of Page/Template Load Time
We just upgraded to 9236 from 9221 this past weekend Under 9221 I built a complicated request template that has a lot of resource fields and easily 60 or more field/form rules. In the past, it did take a few seconds for the page to load; however, the page didn't appear to be released to the user until it had finished loading. Since the upgrade, It now looks like the page is immediately presented to the user but continues to load; as a result, the user is being presented with HTML code in the description

Technician Rights
Hi, We are setting up a new Support Group within the business (not IT) to take tickets that are logged for a business supported system. For these users to accept tickets we've had to make them technicians. The problem is , they get to see all the other support groups so this can be confusing. Is there any way to setup a support group and have users (Requester or Technicians) manage the tickets without seeing other groups ? Do they have to be Technicians, and if so how can we restrict what a technician
