Dynamic columns
The columns in most of the summary views need to be dynamic for resizing and reordering fields. Often times, critical information is simply cut off and you can't read it without drilling into an item for further detail. Jeremy H. Danville, CA
Change Management: Standard Change Request workflow
Hi all, We're implementing Change Management and, as you know, there is some debate about whether a standard change request should spend its live-cycle as a service request or be converted to a change request. There are arguments on both sides, and I understand the matter to be subjective. We would like to use SDP to track our standard change requests. We've defined our normal change request, leaving it primarily as it is by default. However, what can people recommend for the Std Change Request.

IE 8
Hi, When you register a query in the browser Internet Explorer 8 instead of a single query is logged in the system of two identical right. The Service Desk Plus displays an informational message "for IE 6 and IE 7 is not fully supported. Some features may not work properly." If you are using a browser version 11 or other browsers such duplication does not occur. Question - why the system issues a message when you use IE 8, and why there is duplication of requests? Compatibility Mode is disabled.

Task Assigning
We have a template setup for New User setup requests that consists of about 8 tasks that need to be completed. A feature that would be nice would be the ability to assign tasks to the owner of the request. This would save us from having to go in and set tasks to that owner manually. So basically I would like to see an option under Owner to be something like $requestowner$ as well as a list of all the technicians.

Why we are currently not upgrading to the PRO version of ServiceDesk Plus
Hi guys, Thought I'd share some feedback as to why we are looking at putting in Spiceworks for Asset Management rather than upgrading to ManageEngine Professional. Basically it comes down to administrative overhead associated with your price structure. For example, lets say we currently have 500 nodes on our network and we purchase a 500 node license, by nodes I mean servers, switches/routers/etc, workstations, laptops, VoIP phones (??), and printer/scanners. Under the current licensing this would
ServiceDesk App
Morning All. I'm having a little trouble logging in to the ServiceDesk app on an iPhone? All I keep getting is the Request has timed out when it comes to me logging in.

Solution editor formatting does not remain once solution is published
I try to spend a lot of time making solutions very easily digestible for end users, and include screenshots whenever possible. Since the editor was upgraded a few builds back (currently on 9100), I've noticed that the formatting is ignored when it's displayed in it's "published" form. Consider the following: In the Editor: Once published: Also I've noticed that we used to be able to resize screenshots that had been pasted inline where that cannot be done anymore. These are HUGE steps backward
