technician rule for ticket status
does anyone know if there is a way to auto set the ticket status when I assign a ticket to a certain technician. I have 40 technicians and some work nights i would like to change the status from open to something else without having to go into each ticket. i looked in business rules those only work for new incoming requests
Backups Take FOREVER!
Is there any way to improve the backup process? After finally upgrading our Production servers to 9414, it was just a drawn out process. Add to that the fact that I do these updates over a remote session, I have to watch nothing happening while I make sure my remote session doesn't crash. So I have a couple of points to suggest more like a rant with purpose. 1. If you are going to check for ANYTHING (in this case the master key) do it FIRST!!!! Don't make me wait for 20 minutes, ask for my key, then

Email to Purchase request
We have some email template that users can complete and send into the servicedesk, How do I get SDP to recognise this type of email as a service catalogue type rather than an incident? As its an incident I don't have the option to create a New Purchase request from the ticket. I have looked at business rules but cant see anything that works. If I look at the incident and under actions if I use the option "convert to service" it then gives me this PR option but I would like to have this applied automatically

Prevent ticket creation for users
Is there a way to prevent users from opening tickets, but allow them to check the status of tickets? We want to force all tickets to only be created at the Help Desk, but give the users the ability to check the status of their tickets. I was thinking that you can modify the SDGuest role, but it doesn't look like there is an option for that. Thanks. Dave

Request - Assign Tech, auto select their group
When assigning technicians, you select the group and then the technician drop down has whoever is in that group. Possible via trigger or other to reverse that? When I select a technician, I want the group to automatically populate with that tech's group. If multiple, give me the first as default. It would automate the assign process and remove a step and also force the group field to always be populated.
What is the best way to find out the SR# of a duplicate ticket that has been created
This is a bit of a silly question, but when I create a duplicate ticket, it doesn't appear to put me on that new ticket. It also doesn't provide me with the ticket number (which would be a big help). Aside from having to change filters and look for the newest request, which is time consuming and cumbersome, is there an easier way to get the newly created request number or get to the ticket? Thanks, Adam
Add open ticket queue amount to initial Requester page ?
Hi, we have a report, which shows in graph amount of tickets for each site per category. We would like to show the graph of already opened ticket queue per category to each site requesters, when they login, so that they know, what is the amount of open tickets before them. Is there a way to do this? When I try to customize the self-service portal settings, I cannot see a way to add such information for our users. Any help is much appreciated. Regards, Jan

Alert Technician notification not working with a Business Rule
Hello, I have a business rule configured with an action of Assign to Technician and also have the notification rule on to alert technician by email when a request is assigned. The notification rule doesn't seem to be working, but the tickets are being assigned properly. The technician never receives an email. Is this not the intended function of that particular notification rule? Does the technician have to be auto-assigned in order to trigger that notification? 9.4 Build 9413 Thanks, Josh

E-mail Id(s) to Notify on Service Requests
We are wanting to use the Email Id(s) to Notify field in the Service Catalog to automatically send an email to a specific individual when a specific service request is created. When I drag and drop this field on the form, there are no options for it. Can I set a value for this field--like an email address or select a specific Requester? Essentially, when we create this service request, we want another requester to immediately get a notification about it. We're using SDP 9417. Thanks!

Only send email acknowledgement to requester for tickets created by email
Short version: Is there any way to only send the email acknowledgement to a requester when the incident has been created due to them sending us an email? Or alternatively, can it be disabled for incidents which we create ourselves in the web interface? Long version: When a user emails us, we want them to get the acknowledgement email. When we create an incident ourselves directly in the web interface, we don't want the requester to be sent an acknowledgement email. This is because they have usually
De-Provisioning Accounts using tasks
This may be a feature request, but I wanted to see if I just missed if this was possible and I just missed it: In our de-provisioning process, we have a requirement to sign off on each different system where we terminate access. We thought the best way to ensure we are getting each system account shut down and have a record of it is to make a task for each. This results in about 20 tasks. The tasks are all assigned to a support group but aren't assigned an owner. There are two challenges with this

F&F Rule script to prevent submission of request if field entry criteria not met
I'm looking for ideas on how to prevent users from completing the submission of a request if they haven't appropriately filled in certain fields. I have a template with 4 Yes/No pick list fields. At least one of these fields should be answered with a "Yes" value before submitting the request. Each field is mandated, but a user could still pick a "No" value for each and try to submit the request. I can use a script on an "On Form Submit" Field & Form Rule to pop up an alert saying that a "Yes" needs

Making reply text by technicians stand out?
Is there a way to automate, in some fashion, formatting of the text in a technicians reply? I wanted to make sure that the reply of technicians really stand out to requesters, so that it's the first thing that catches their eye in the emails that get sent to them when their ticket is updated. Maybe highlighting the text or changing the color of it, or maybe even bolding the text. The issue is that counting on technicians to do this themselves in the portal, or when replying to the assignment email,

'Pinned' Solutions in Self Service Portal
Currently in the Self Service Portal settings, there is an area called "Popular Solutions" It would seem the function of this section is to show Solutions that have been marked as available to the Requester, and rank them based on the amount of views. The problem with the above is that if we have 30 solutions published in total, not all of these will fit on this front screen. The amount of views will also push certain solutions off the front page, and most requesters are unlikely to search the Solutions
