Is there any features where SD can be run on an mobile device and users enter own details for techs with ID swipe?
Is there any features where Service Desk can be run on an mobile device and users enter own details for techs with an ID swipe onto a card reader? As we are at a school, we regularly have students coming up with issues with their laptops etc. Is there any function that anyone knows of that can utilise the swiping of a students card and it auto enters the appropriate fields according to the user?

[SDF-76549] Microsoft Teams Integration - On Prem
I noticed there was a Microsoft Teams app to integrate SD+ Cloud and I'm wondering if there are any plans to create an integration with On-Prem solutions.
Teams integration
Hi, I just noticed that Servicedesk Plus integration is already available in Teams, but only for the cloud version. Will this integration also become available for the on-prem version? The roadmap, is it for the on-prem version or both? If for both how do I see which feature is being developed/tested for which version?
[SDF-86527] Mandate new checklists
I'm pleased we finally have checklists! BUT, the implementation seems a bit half-hearted. In our testing, a technician can go ahead and resolve a request without even bothering to complete the checklist - so what's the point? Is there any way it can be mandated so that a request cannot be resolved until the checklist is 'verified'? Also, it would be great to be able to consider completion of all checklist items as the resolution and copy the checklist into the resolution field.

Here are some improvement suggestions that we've uncovered: - ability for html editing in the Help Card section (add images, icons, etc.) to further guide users - ability for text to auto scroll down when page is scrolled. This way if there's information that is important to one section, the text scrolls with the user - always show the field help icon instead of only on 'hover' - ability for new text boxes to have html editing

[Tips & Tricks] Excel ITIL Change Management with Standard Changes
Every day, there is a need to perform a simple and low-risk change. For instance, most people (be it a user or someone from the IT team) don’t consider resetting a password to be a Change.

We are starting to realize that the physical addresses for requester's (found in SDP) no longer match what is in AD. It also doesn't seem to remove their old department either. I can make changes manually to a user in SDP,
