Business Rule not changing Status or request- Screen shot now attached
I have created a very basic Business Rule. My process entails selecting a Group in the Request, which notifies users in the Group via email of a request. The user will then reply with a trigger in the email body. In this case, "Client Contacted". The business rule is setup to search the request description, which is the area the email reply populates, and if the description contains "Client Contacted" it should change the status to "Client Replied" . This is not working. I am attaching a screen

Incident/Request Additional Fields - Multi Select
When I create Multi Select Fields in the Incident - Additional Fields, I can't figure out the sort order. It's not in the order I added the items, it's not in alphabetical order and it isn't in the order of when they were added either. Is there a way to force a sort order? I don't want to put numbers in front of it. It's going to be confusing to users in the order it's in now. Any ideas?

Email to notify not populating for requesters
Salutations! We have an incident template that we use to coordinate moves between facilities, IT and the user, where the user is added via the "email to notify" field. If a facilities member fills in the template the "email to notify" field does not populate with email addresses from AD, while our technicians do. Is it possible to have this field populate email addresses for requesters, or is that feature only available for techs? Thanks! Sean
scheduler - backup technician
Hello, Here is my scenario. I went on holiday until August 8th. Before leaving I entered my leave in SDP and selected the "Move requests to unassigned state".

Task permissions question
Has there been a change in a recent update of SDPlus that you can only see tasks assigned in your name? We used to be able to see other people's tasks, but now it is only your own you can see, even if you create the task. As an admin I can see some but only the older ones, any new ones created I cannot see unless it is in my name. Is this a deliberate change?
Appending Description Field
Hello, Looking for a bit of advice, I've added the below script, and it pulls through the details as required, however it adds the description_to_add twice. Also, unless I this to On Create only, if the Request is Edited it adds another two lines each time it's edited. I can keep it at On Create Only if required. var existing_description_content=$CS.getDescription(); var o=$CS.getValue("WorkOrder_Fields_UDF_CHAR14"); var d=$CS.getValue("WorkOrder_Fields_UDF_CHAR15"); var c=$CS.getValue("WorkOrder_Fields_UDF_CHAR7");

Can't see technicians as a technician
Hello everyone, So a colleague can't see other technicians in the technician tab. But other technicians see every technician in the tab. Also the privileges and roles are the same for all technicians. So we don't know exactly where it goes wrong. Only he has the problem, even if he logs in on another pc where it works for me, it still doesn't for him. The picture below gives you an example of what he sees - it's Dutch, but it basically says 0 out of 0. If I go into the tab, I see 1 out of 5. Does
Chat Function in 9315 not working
