Configure LDAP to AD connection in SDP on Linux (Debian 8.1 - jessie)
Can someone show me an example of their LDAP info within the text fields of the LDAP configuration page to integrate back to an AD server? We are not 100% sure what these should be and it would be excellent to see someone elses configuration for LDAP to AD within ServiceDesk Plus from a Linux node. Right now, when we try and configure the connection, it fails every single time. This is all running on Debian (jessie) 8.1: Domain Controller: ldap://192.xx.xx.xx:389 Username: CN=loginname,CN=DomainAdmins,DC=domain,DC=local

Tickets flagged as overdue, even though they haven't reached the duedate set
We have tickets appearing within the Requests Dashboard when selecting the VIEW drop down labeled "Overdue Request". As you can see in the screenshot, there are several tickets flagged as overdue, even though their duedate is not yet reached: I assumed this is because their SLAs have been "violated"? In general, I would want a view to show me when the due date has been missed vs SLA violations. I could not find a way to do this in the customer views (something like: DueDate < Today's date). Any

Customizable Subjects for Reply Templates
Currently, the Reply Templates can only be customized individually for text of the body, and the Subject of the reply is controlled from the notification below. E-mail Templates for : Replying to a Request To show you an example, we would like to be able to use a customized subject line for this specific reply template, but can't because the Reply subject is set at a global level. We have certain replies for operation events that contain different information than a standard reply to the requester
What is this setting: Allow dynamic user addition when the user is not imported in the application?
What does this setting do in the Self Service Portal settings? The only thing I found so far is if set to off it turns off automatically detecting the "Log On To" for the user, but that doesn't seem to fit with the setting question.

Business Rules - Closing Tickets
I'm running into an issue when attempting to close a ticket using a business rule. Using a business rule, I'm trying to assign a ticket to a template and then close the ticket.

Incidents re-opening when they aren't supposed to
Hi all, We do not want incidents to re-open when a new email is received with the same request id. We simply want the ticket to get updated and the technician alerted. This is the option we have set in the SElf Service portal area of the admin page. However, it still happens. If the ticket is resolved and an email is sent to the requestor saying that it is resolved, and they reply, the ticket gets opened again. We don't want this to happen. In fact, we don't want the ticket status to change ever

How do I propose a series of steps to the customer prior to resolution?
Perhaps it's just semantics, but I'm uncomfortable marking the request as Resolved when I'm proposing solutions to the requester, so I'm wondering if what I'm asking about is just semantics. I have a resolution in my Solutions that I want to send to the user to have them work through the issue. This is a proposed solution. How do I get that to the user. If I mark it as Resolved, SDP can trigger that this be sent to the user via the Acknowledge E-mail c users when a request is resolved, but

Requester Notifications
Hi, In Technician notifications we have alert - Alert(or Notify) technician by e-mail when there is a new reply from the requester. Is it possible to add similar alert in Requester Notifications - Notify requester when there is a new reply for his request (it can be send by technician or someone else). This would reduce the time to watch for changes in requests. Best regards, Dmitry

ServiceDesk Plus Snippet Of The Week | Why do you need to auto assign a change manager to a change?
Let's say Heather Graham is the change manager for all the network related changes in your organization. Your IT help desk receives complaints from multiple users of the engineering department regarding intermittent network connection. Your technicians have found the root cause to be a faulty router that has to be replaced. Therefore a technician created a new change, which in the first place has to be authorized by the change manager. But he created the change without knowing who the change manager

Create custom field within all tickets for only technicians
Greetings all! I need to create a custom field within all tickets for technicians to use. This will be a RANK field, used by the techs to help prioritize their work. The key for me is that the field should either be invisible to the end user OR at least not editable by the end user. Also, if there is a handy way to set this as a global field (one that automatically is placed on all tickets vs adding it to forms one at a time) -- that would be awesome! The instructions I found for creating custom
