Can the ServiceDesk Plus App be used by the end user?
I have installed the ServiceDesk Plus app on my mobile (Android) and was able to log in after generating an API key and will allow me to use as a Technician, however if I log out, and log back in as my test account (a standard user) I get the message regarding an API key has not been generated, but the user has no way of generating a key as they are not a Tech.

Moving users from different sites to just one site (or no site at all)
Dear All, In our production environment, an initial configuration of SDP was made to consider regular rooms as entire sites, which is not fit for purpose. Before considering implementing sites in a beneficial way, I would like to have all the requesters into one single site (or no site at all). Currently, the site field is named as Roomnumber (which needs to be changed to site) and is receiving data from the AD based on the room where the requester is located. So, in a nutshell, how can we remove

Remove Request Tab from Self-Service Portal
First of all, sorry if this ends up being a duplicate post. I thought I posted this issue earlier but I can't find it. I would like to be able to remove the "Requests" tab from the Self-Service Portal in Service Desk Plus. I don't want requesters to see any history relating to submitted requests. Is there a configuration option I can change to remove the "Requests" tab? If not, is there some form of work around I could implement to get me by until a future release when this feature might be implemented?

'Selective' notification on tasks possible?
I have a New Hire Onboarding request template that has several (13) tasks: one of the tasks goes to our User Provisioning team, the others all go to the Desktop Support team. The Desktop Support tasks are hopefully taking the place of a checklist that has to be updated and stored somewhere. What I would LIKE to do is automatically notify the User Provisioning team that they have a task, and at the same time send the Desktop Support team ONE notification instead of thirteen. I've tried various combinations

Report on or Filter Ticket List by Template Name?
Hello, Is it possible to run a report or filter a list based on the Template Name? I can add the Template Name column to my list view, but it is not available to filter, nor can I sort the list by that column. I'd like to be able (down the road) to determine how frequently, if at all, Request Catalog or Incident Templates are getting used. Thanks, I didn't find the right solution from the internet.

My Tasks
Does anybody know how to make the space more usable? There is such a large area for the tasks, but you are limited in amount of characters before you get the ... and can't see what it is exactly you are trying to remind yourself of sometimes. As you can't control the size, it seems like such a waste of real estate, the character limit should be greatly increased to make this feature somewhat usable I feel.

editing pre-existing fields for template
I have an existing template that has an Item field that I am trying to edit to add another option into the Pick List, but it doesn't show if I go to Incident - Additional Fields, where all the other fields are.

This template was existed prior to me getting hired, so I don't know or why it was created this way to begin with.

How to require a contact field limited to a particular user or template?
We have helpdesk "kiosks" where users can walk up and submit tickets. They are already logged into with generic ManageEngine accounts "kiosk 1, kiosk 2, etc". The problem we run into is when the user does not leave contact information so we don't know who created the ticket. Is there any way to *require* a contact field that is either limited to ONLY the kiosk accounts or have a different requester template that requires a contact field? We don't want to require this across the board and make this
