Modifying the Type of software massively
Hello Team. One of our clients has ServiceDesk Plus Enterprise Edition v10500 with MSSQL 2014. Our client exported to an XLS file the list of software that are classified as "Unidentified". Later on the XLS file our client organized and documented the Software Type for each software. Is it possible to import the XLS file back into the Scanned Software with the modified Software Type so that it is massively updated? What are the options to modify the Software Type in a massive way? Regards. Rafael
[SDF-56587] Approver unable to approve when request was initially denied
How do we ensure that the Approver can approve a request that was initially denied? The request ticket contains an exchange of conversation between the requester, 3rd-party group, and the Approver. The technician initially sent an approval request, however, the requester was looking for additional information - so the Approver denied the request until all information was provided. The requester provided all the information, then the technician sent another approval. However, the approver cannot approve

Creating a Request from an email
Good Morning, We are using the free version of ServiceDesk Plus, version 10.0 Build 10011. We are trying to get an email from a user converted into a request.

Why is NIO even required?
It seems the NIO port stuff is a new(ish) requirement. Previously we had the ServiceDesk Plus server sitting behind a load balancer that handles SSL termination for our entire web presence. After upgrading to the 9300 branch, we started to notice long page loads, etc, and couldn't figure out why. Come to find out some things load over (default) port 8081 for whatever reason. We do not have port 8081 exposed to networks that people have access to ServiceDesk from (and won't), and as such, all

SD API slowdown
Hi all, for a number of months now an installation of ServiceDesk I have been working on has been experiencing significant slowdown in the speed of ServiceDesk API calls. We are talking about every single call taking between 30 seconds and a minute, and this applies to different types of calls dealing with the Requests module. Any suggestions on what could be done to improve the situation, perhaps a section in the documentation or an article or an earlier forum post that deals with this? Thanks in
Interface freezes for awhile when sending email notifications
Is anyone else experiencing delays when ServiceDesk triggers a notification event? For example when a ticket is updated and a notification is sent to a user ServiceDesk will hang for 20-30 seconds.

Remove Mandatory Field Requirement on Incidents Created by Email
We just updated our SDP from 9414 to 10020. In the old version our ticket manager was able to assign unassigned tickets created by email to a technician or group. On the new version when they try to assign the ticket they get a screen saying mandatory fields cannot be empty. The ticket manager doesn't have time to fill out all of those fields before assigning it to a technician. That is part of the technician's job. As a work around for now I have turned off mandatory for those fields but they need

Field & Form Rules to Non Mandate Fields Not Working
We just recently updated to the newest version 10020. Since we did that I have noticed that the Field & Form Rules on one of my incident templates is not working like it used to. We have a new employee onboarding form. In the form we list several systems an employee may require access to and ask if they require it. Some of these systems require a business justification to grant access. So I created Field & Form rules. For requesters, the first one is in the on form load section during create only
