Copying and pasting from word document into solutions article
I'm currently setting up our knowledge base and copying and pasting existing knowledge base articles from word to the solutions editor. It does not copy correctly. It double spaces lines etc and makes it look weird. Is there going to be an upgrade of the solutions editor or is there a work around. I have attached a screenshot showing the difference. Very annoying as I don't want to rewrite all the information. Cheers, Jamie

[SD-68372] Copy and Paste Approval Emails doesn't work anymore
Before upgrading, we were able to copy/paste a list of emails into the approval email list of users to send approvals to. Now, if we do that, it doesn't copy in a way that functions. Is there a way for us to keep a list of email addresses to mail to and copy/paste it in to the approval email? We have to send almost every access request received to 4 users on stage 2 and 5 users on stage 3. The users are always the same users. Here's an example of what it looks like now: It used to process each user's

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

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
