Urgent: Requests made from Service Catalog doesnt use Request closing rules
Good day, we are on 8.0.0.3 and have pretty big problem - requests that are made from service catalog doesnt use Request closing rules, they are simply ignored. Is that a feature or a bug? Is there any way to prohibit it?
Upgraded to SDP 8.0.0.6 and now all requests via email are set to Mode: Postal Mail instead of E-Mail
Since upgrading from 7.6 to 8.0 all of my mail->incident requests are flagged as mode: Postal Mail... How do I get the system to correctly flag these as E-mail again? This worked properly in 7.6.11 so it has to be some artifact from the upgrade. Thanks
Unable to add Software Licenses in ServiceDesk+
Hi. We're using ServiceDesk+ 7.6.0 build 7611. I'm trying to add a new software license in the Assets section but when adding the product name I get this error: FAILURE :null Please report the problem to the system administrator, with the Error Code - 1,293,716,205,584 Then when I try to add the details it just doesn't do anything. Has anyone else experienced this, or know what the error code means? Thanks, Dave Screenshot of error:
Administrator is no approver

All technician's and other users are configurable to be Service Request Approver exept me as SD+admin. Can you please make this also available? Best regards, Mark Picture is from a normal technician :
Issues after upgrading ServiceDesk+ to 8.0
Hi. Since upgrading ServiceDesk+ to version 8.0 we have the following issues: 1. When selecting a requester in Admin -> Requesters nothing happens. Clicking the requester simply doesn't do anything, just reloads the list - doesn't show the details for that requester. This occurs for any user despite logging out and in again, deleting temporary internet files, etc. 2. When selecting Assets -> Software -> Software Licenses it gets stuck in an endless loop of loading the page http://servicedesk:8080/SoftwareLicenseListView.do?null and

Auto assign technician where technician shifts are involved
I really like the auto assign feature, however in the environment that I work in, the service desk analysts work on a shift rota. Some finish early and some start late. Does anyone know of a way of specifying the availabilty of analysts to cater for a variance in their start / finish times. If the system assigns a call to an engineer that has gone home for the day or who isnt in till mid morning, then sla's can be affected.
Wrong request ID being assigned
Hello. I have upgraded to version 8006 of servicedesk plus and beginning today i have experienced the following problem. Most of the requests are being assigned a wrong ID, therefor they are not appearing in the requests list, because the requests with that ID have already been solved. Would appreciate any lights on the mather. Thanks.
Problem assigning technician when editing request details
We are on version 8006, and when we go in to edit the request details, the technician drop down is blank, but when we use the assign button at the top, they are present. This adds an extra step when we are filling out ticket information when handing out requests.
SD Password Reset
We do not use AD Integration for our User Accounts - this is due to a large number of users not being a member of our Domain. With this in mind, we do have a lot of users requesting password resets to access the ServiceDesk portal. Many applications/portals would usually have the option of resetting a password when logging in. So far I have not been able to find such an option within ServiceDesk. Would it be possible to include a 'Forgot Password' option at the login screen? This would then free

I currently am running Service Desk 7 Build 7608 and planning of at least upgrading to Build 4611 (might be going to version 8, don't know yet). Server is running on a WinXp virtual machine (VmWare).

enable requesters to change the status of Priority field on a submitted request
Hi, I have not been able to figure out a way to enable requestors to modify the status of the Priority field after they have submitted a request. There are times when a user submits a request and the issue is simply a Priority 3 and then for some reason it becomes more urgent and they would like immediate assistance. I have business rules defined that automatically send alerts when support requests have been sitting in queue for a specific period of time and not assigned and it would be helpful
Priority Matrix is useless in SDP
Hi there, We are using Priority Matrix to prioritize the requests. But there is a leakage in this process that Technicians can change Impact and Urgency values anytime themselves, even if you deselect the "Allow requesters and technicians to override the Priority Matrix" button in Priority Matrix configuration section. According to this, Priority can be changed in any time by a Technician. How can i restrict the Technicians to change the Impact & Urgency values? From my point of view this is not

Asset Agent
Hi I am evaluating v 8 of sdp, I noticed the asset explorer, what I do not understand is why when an asset is in a remote location in the service desk inventory it will try to connect to the local ip address of the asset (ex 192.x.x.x) instead the current public internet address, I have in the agent config selected both methods but still all remote machines will show their local / ip address instead of public address making it impossible to remote control or even refresh the invenotry of them Regards
ServiceDesk won't startup after restore
I took a backup from ServiceDesk which is in live environment and I want to use it in test server, but after I restore the backup the ServiceDesk won't start the serves. It just try to start again and again. Booth of them is 7.6.0 Build 7611. So how can I do it in right way?
Assets being captured
How do I stop SD+ from treating a non-existent workstation as an asset? Seems when we run a network scan and nothing responds on the IP, it captures it as an asset and it counts against our license. i.e. 10.10.1.10 In Store but there is nothing at 10.10.1.10
Choosing Technician then requestor resets Technician
Good Day, We are running SDP 7611 and have noticed and issue with it (and previous versions). When you enter in a group and/or technician then go out to fill in the Requester field below about half the time the Technician and group are reset back to nothing. Has anyone else run into this and know of a fix? We have had a few tickets reset back to no Technician or group and take awhile to be found. Thanks!

Business rule does not apply
Hello! I have a site with only one business rule: if category of the request equals to defined category, rule must apply new request to group of specialists and set up a default specialist. Rule should apply only when creating request. The problem is: When creating request through Request Template - rule applies. When creating request through Service Catalog template - it does not apply. Other info: when i configure business rule to apply when request modified, it correctly modifies the request.

Access Servicedesk when DC goes down
Hi there, We need to know how we can access servicedesk if our Domain Controller goes down? We use AD authentication and without access to the network all we get is Wrong Username / Password when trying to login.

In this instance the information we needed was in the servicedesk solution's database but we had no way of accessing it. In short, I want to be able

We have been testing SDP 8, and we are also in the process of migrating to an Exchange 2010 cluster - our test version has worked fine talking to 2010, so we went to migrate the mailbox for production to 2010 this morning - that had issues so we moved the mailbox back to the 2003 server - we had to restart service desk to get it to talk to the mailbox again, then mail fetching crashed about 5 minutes later. Now, I can't even click on the mail configuration tab on the admin page - it just sits there

Bad attachment
Hi, In the SD+ (ver.7009 or 7011) installed on Windows 2003 with MSSQL-2005 there is a problem. When sending reply with attachment, client receives it without attachment. We ran an experiment and found out the following: If format is set to RTF(HTML) in notification rules setup then any email goes to client without attachments in mail, for example: we send mail from public e-mail server using SD+ then after some time we checked this mail via web interface of the mailserver and there was no attachment
