Is it possible to configure a notification when a Change approval is pending? For example if the Change is scheduled for the 10th and the approval was sent on the 1st, SD could notify the Approvers (CAB, Change Manager, etc.) that the Change is approaching it's deployment date.

Restricting who technicians can assign to
Hi all, is it possible to get a module in maybe business rules or some sort where certain groups and technicians are hidden from specific technicians in defined sites. This would allow TechnicianA of level1 to only see TechnicianB of level1 and Technician A & B of level 2 and nothing from level 3 above. this means he cannot bypass the "process" and only has one route to go. Regards, Willus
Additional fields in change templates
I'm attempting to customize our Change Management templates and running into some trouble. I'd like to add additional large text fields below the "description" field, unfortunately when I add the fields, they default to being one line tall and only extend halfway across the canvas. How can I customize the size of the additional fields? Also, can I customize the fields required for different stages? Say I wanted to add a "proof of testing" field to the Implementation stage, how can I do that?
Taking Notes While Opening a Request - Possible?
Is it possible to add a Action to open the Add Notes dialog while creating a request. My techs are telling me that the process of first creating the ticket then having to go to Action Add Notes is too time consuming and would be better if they could add the notes while on the initial screen. Any ideas or better ways to accomplish this? These would be notes for other techs and not visible to the requester. Thanks, Ken

One to many relationships - Requesters
I'd like to see the ability to create department to multi-site relationships for requesters. This would give managers the ability to oversee departmental employees who are located at different sites.

Business Rule Query
Hello, I currently have Business Rule that emails a distribution list (outside of IT with no access to system) when a new Request is assigned to a specific group. I was hoping to set up a rule to email the same distribution list when a call in that Group is marked as Resolved. I can see you can mark it to be Executed when a request is Created or Edited, but I don't want them getting an email every a note or field is added, just the status changed to Resolved. Is there another way of doing this or
Automatic Status Change
We are seeing number of instances where tickets are set to, for example, waiting for response and, depending on the view the technician is using, may not see it again before its breached the SLA. Is there a way to reset the status - no matter what it is set to - back to 'open', escalate or even poke the end user so that these tickets are not put into limbo and forgotten about? Jason
After upgrade to 9115, replying to tickets does not autopopulate "To" field
This morning we completed the upgrade and ever since when replying to any type of ticket, it ignores the requestor and cc information and does not populate any of the address fields like it once did. Attached a sample screenshot... Have not applied any templates, but doing does not change the behavior. I'm not seeing any particular settings for this in the mail servers settings, notifications or reply templates. Any ideas? Thanks. Steps for duplication, open any request or incident > click reply.

How do i use the RESTAPI?
I'm trying to add a request via the RESTApi but it keeps giving me a response of "HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized" This is my first attempt at using an API, so i'm probably doing something obviously wrong, but the documentation doesn't show how to actually specify the Technician API in the HTTP Post. It says to either include it in the URL or the Header, so i tried both, but maybe i'm using the wrong keyword or something? It doesn't actually say in the documentation how to do this... Any help would be
