Issue in 9223 Release
Greetings, Since upgrading to 9223 I am having to go back in and re-add "Purchase Order" authority back to the designated users every morning. I have been looking through the system logs and am not seeing any nightly process that is running that may be changing or resetting this feature but it is happening daily. Has anyone else uncovered additional issues within this release? Thank you, Greg
Credential requirements for scanning assets
We are going through some changes in our organization and the Domain Admin account that we were using to scan in SDP has been removed. Our Director wants us to create an account just for SDP to use for scanning our assets. What are the minimum requirements for the credential to be able to pick up all our AD Users and computers and provide the information to SDP?

Data Archiving - Want to except by group but not all groups are listed
I want to archive all requests that are over a certain date, excepting a list of specific support groups. However when I look at "List of Group" when defining criteria, the list of groups presented is very much incomplete. We have about 80 support groups but the pop up list only shows me about 15 of them. This means I'm effectively unable to selectively archive - no other column names suit my purpose. It would be at least a little bit helpful if I could choose Template Name as a field. Anyone
Purchase order Approvers
After updating to the most current version I find the majority of my requestors now have a purchase order approver role. Since we have only user authorized to approve a PO suddenly having all my users now appear in this list is to say nothing less than annoying. The only thing more annoying would be to have to edit each user individually to take away this option. see image below Please tell me this is not the only way
Requester details being reset?
I just noticed something odd with SDP since updating to build 9223. Here is a brief description of what is happening: We have setup our VP's as VIP requesters with the checkbox selected to approve PO's. Today I attempted to create a PO but neither of the VP's were listed. I opened the Requester section under the Admin tab and both had the checkbox for PO Approver unchecked overnight. I have reset it back to checked, but is there a reason this might be happening?? Thanks Jason
Update to 9223 succeeds but leaves SDP unusable
Hello, Just wondering if there is a known issue around updating from Build 9218 to Build 9223, where-by the update works, but the interface becomes unstable. Has anything been reported as yet? If not, I will log a call. We have tried the update three times with the same outcome everytime. Cheers, Ben

Assets scan site import issue
There seems to be an issue with site not being set after assets scan, both using the script and the agent. The Site value is properly set in the script and manually added to the agent's registry. The xml file being generated does contain the proper site information, so it is probably an xml import based issue. I am aataching server logs, script and inercepted xml file. Hope I can finally get some help with it as I've been battling with this issue since march. Am I the only one? Thank you in advance,
Script to "Add New Request"
Hello everyone, I am brand new to scripting in general and am struggling quite a bit with creating a new request based on another request being submitted within Service Desk Plus.

Preventive Maintenance Tasks
Hi, I was wondering if anyone has come across a problem in Preventive Maintenance Tasks where the "Priority" field is blank and when the Task is created it doesn't pick up the Priority you want (and therefore the SLA) ? We've created an incident template we want to use for our Preventive Maintenance Tasks, Added a Priority for this and it appears fine there, but when viewed and created the Priority is incorrect when the Preventive Maintenance Task is created. Do only Task Templates work correctly
Change Template - On Field Change rule not working
Running Ver: 9221 Under Changes Module, 'Field and Form Rules', 'On Field Change' I set the settings as shown in the attachment and when creating a new change and it doesn't work. (Needed condition is item = xxx) I have tried many other settings in the custom script, with the defaults suggested by the program so that is not the issue. Script = $CS.setValue("TITLE","Software Update: Adobe Flash"); Let me know if there is a way to fix.
Change Management - Custom Triggers
Hi All, I am currently attempting to implement a custom trigger on Change Management to invoke a powershell script to send data externally when a change is created, and when it's workflow progresses. I have managed to get the RFC approvals down fine, however the "Edit" action does not seem to trigger as the workflow progresses. Is this by design, a bug, or am I missing something? My trigger is as follows: Change Custom trigger: - Execute when change is created and edited - Criteria is any Change

Asset Scan Audit Behavior?
With SDP, is there no option available to Automatically remove an asset that is not scanned in X number of days? I have things appearing in the asset list that was retired long ago and are still using up an asset license. Why are these not removed after not being detected on the network or at least being move to in storage to free a license? This should be a feature in the asset scanning instead of having to spend more $ on the Asset Explorer software. Thanks Jason
Unable to update Employee ID using Active Directory Import
I am using the Import from Active Directory to populate/update our requestors. Everything works fine except for Employee ID. I tried creating a UDF named Employee ID and populating it from the AD property "employeeID". This field does populate correctly but there is another Employee ID field in the Requestor record that is not updated. I can't seem to find a way to remove the other field. Please help. Dave

Mail Fetching stopped working after update to 9.2 Build 9200
I've emailed the support contact but haven't heard back yet. I wanted to see if anyone had a resolution here. Mail stopped fetching new emails after the upgrade. Restarting the servicedesk service on the server resolves it once but it stops working after that. The status itself says it's running but the last attempt to fetch mail does not change. There are no errors on the page.
Multiline field formatting in REST calls
When I issue a request to create a ticket via REST, I would like to have the description field of the ticket to be multi-lined (ie separated with new lines) In reading this https://forums.manageengine.com/topic/add-multiline-resolution-via-api I tried to format my payload to match, eg {'OPERATION_NAME': 'ADD_REQUEST', 'TECHNICIAN_KEY': '12345-67890', 'INPUT_DATA': '<Operation><Details><requester>someuser</requester><subject>test subject</subject><description>Test line1 </br> Test string 2 </br>
Support Group Unassigned when changing requestor
Hi, Running ver: 9207 When using a request catalog template with a pre-assigned support group the support group is removed when changing the requester. Additionally, this cannot be overcome with form rules as requester name is not a field that a rule can be conditioned on. Is this a bug or have I configured something incorrectly? Thanks!

Approval issue in multi stage aproval workflow
Hi, I have an issue with Service Request approver in SDP 9118. I set a Request with a multi stage approval, using $DEPT_HEAD$ variable (see attach1). This workflow is working well with around 80% of tickets, but in some requests $DEPT_HEAD$ approver remains empty (attach2).

Receiving Multiple Notifications When Assigning a Task to a Support Group?

Multiple Tomcat Port Issue

Phantom technician
Hi, We have the same problem as the request (https://forums.manageengine.com/topic/created-an-extra-technician-record-can-i-delete-it) in that we have a phantom technician that was created in the wrong way. Apparently, the technician was manually created in the first instance, but when that didn't work, an old technician account for someone who left the company was modified (even though we use Active Directory accounts...) In an effort to resolve the problem, we probably compounded it by changing
