How to automatically add workstation entry in Workstation_Fields table?
So when a new workstation is added to SDP it is given a unique WORKSTATIONID and entry in the SystemInfo table but it does not create an entry in the Workstation_Fields table until you edit the asset in the GUI and make a change/addition to a custom field. This is causing a problem with automation we wrote that updates UDF_CHAR columns in Workstation_Fields if it doesn't exist. Our automation updates Workstation_Fields based on an SQL update statement that joins SystemInfo to Workstation_Fields

Requesters with duplicated mailaddress
Hi We have several requester with duplicated mailaddress. One of the mailaddress is from AD synk, the other is from incoming mail before we started AD synk. The problem is when requesters send a mail now the request is connected to the wrong SDP user. What is the priority here? Is it the latest created user that is used? Has this been changed in SPD sometime? It would be great if SDP had a migrate tool for this, Like "Migrate users A anv B and make user B primary"
Domain Scan not discovering some machines?
Hello, So i have been trying to figure out this issue i'm having with ManageEngine in where i cannot see about 20 machines in my environment.

AD Authentication
Hi! I have installed a blank servicedesk plus and the first thing i did was to import users from AD and activate AD Authentication. However this doesnt seem to work. The system just replies wrong credentials when i try to login with my AD account instead of the local administrator in the system. The only thing i have done is: Import users via Active Directory - Set my user as admin for servicedesk and active AD authentication. Have i missed something to get this to work? Version: 9.2 Build 9241

Approval Workflow Issue or Intended Functionality?
9.2 Build 9238 MSSQL We have a number of templates that have an approval workflow. This morning it was brought to my attention that after a ticket has been approved a technician edited a resource field on that template with some missing information. This edit activity caused the approvals to all be resent. I don't recall seeing this behavior before nor do I see it described in the user/admin guide; however I could see where this could be intended functionality--however if it is I would need to understand

Unexpected behaviour change after upgrading to build 9239
Hello, After upgrading our test environment from build 9227 to build 9239 we noticed a behaviour change when using email command. Until now, we used the default SDP email address as FROM address. Because this email address is associated to the default administrator profile, all mappings were successful. Since the upgrade however, the mapping fails. The issue is that the email address is also associated to a requester profile. That means there was a change in the logic: now SDP seems to first check

E-mail Command logic
Hello, Could you please help us to understand the E-mail Command logic? When an e-mail message is fetched containing @SDP@ in the subject: STEP 1: SDP checks if the e-mail sender has a login in SDP Yes > check the role associated to the user profile and continue to step 2 No > treat the message as a reqular e-mail (and create a new requester profile if needed) STEP 2: SDP evaluates the E-mail Command parameters and looks for @@REQUESTEREMAIL=...@@ in the message body

Field and Form rules not working when "Applies to All Users" is selected

I have narrowed down the issue to requests submitted by users that are Requesters. The rules work just fine when the user is a Technician. I was reading the forum and it looks like users have had
