How do I view services requests/incidents with a status <> Completed
I'd like for our technicians to be able to view tickets that are both Open & On Hold (or, essentially any status other than closed). This is a fairly typical thing to do in one view. Is it possible in SDP? Thank you, Adam

Import Data as Note
Hello, we are importing requests from an Excel file. There is a field that we wish to remain hidden from requesters, but are unable to import this data as a note. Is there a method to import data as a note or possibly another field that can be hidden to the requester? Thanks, Steve

Scanned Software Installation Counts
Referring to a previous post from long ago, http://forums.manageengine.com/topic/scanned-software-counts, I am still finding this issue in the latest version of SDP. For example, in the Scanned Software list it shows there are 42 installations of DropBox on our network. Yet when I click on the number 42 to view the installations, there are only 19. For some other software installations, it has also shown 1 installation but when I click on the number there are actually no installations at all.
Technicians Adding Tasks to Approved Tickets
Is there a way to stop a technician from adding tasks to tickets that are not assigned to them? Issue is that once a ticket is approved, tasks are being added after the approval for access that has not been approved. This has happened twice this week and business rules are not working and I do not see the option under Roles unless I take all access away to create a task.
Allow inventory agent to be configured without remote control service
I'm choosing not to use the remote control feature of the inventory agent on SDP. Right now, I must install the agent and then disable the remote control service (ManageEngine AssetExplorer RemoteControl). I would prefer if that were a configurable option when configuring the agent software before downloading and installing it. In other words, make it an option not to install the remote control service with the inventory agent.
Asset status localization problem
Hi, We have SD+ 9.0.9029 setup on PostgreSQL - Enterprise license. We use Polish language. We have problem with asset status localization - "In Store/In Use etc.". It is displayed in English even if Polish language is chosen in user interface. I've checked the translation in ApplicationResources_pl.properties file and it is present (sdp.asset.resourcestate.XXX values) but not used by the system. How can I find the source of the problem and repair it ? Regards Lukasz
Include asset history in the search!
Hi, The requests for being able to search / track asset history go back over 6 years (the ones I've seen while looking for an answer to the question 'Can you...'.) The answer in each case has pretty much been 'We'll be adding it to version x.x'. It seems to me to be a pretty obvious thing to want to - I was trying to figure out how to do it after using ServiceDesk for just 2 days! "Hmm.. Which assets have been assigned to Dave in the past?" "Which assets had a particular number put in the Notes

Server Setup to Enable Mobile App Access
Being a Help Desk person and not a security \ networking person, I need detailed instructions to give to the networking folks on what I need them to do to my server to make it accessible to my techs on their mobile phones. Is there documentation for this? I already know how to set up the app on the phone. That doesn't do me any good unless something is facing the Internet. I just don't know how all that works. Thanks, Leslie
Workflow design in Service Desk for authorization
Place a work flow design process based on templates and categories or separated. The thing is that if the request is a problem or a service or design request, all the people involved in the process get automatically notified by the solution and the approval process can be achieved without hesitation by all parties. Once you define the categories or a template, then you will be able to create a work flow based on that, or create a work flow and assign the work flow to the different templates or defined

Co-relating Request - Problems - Solutions
I've been trying to locate or figure out how can we associate a solution with to a Request/Incident and Problems. We usually create a problem if an issue or similar incident keeps on poping out. The problem tab is a great place to manage and handle a known/possible problem. I like that within the problem id we can associate an incident. This helps us build a case that there is really a problem somewhere. Within Problems tab, theres a Solution section where you put your Workaround and Solution. It'll
FAILURE :Vendor is being used by a module. Hence cannot delete it.
Hi We originally imported our assets from CSV files, during this process some assets inadvertently listed the manufacturer as vendor. Now, when using the purchase order module when trying to select a vendor for a new PO it auto populates the vendors from existing assets. I have manually created a list of vendors we actually order IT equipment from however the vendor list is full of unused vendors. What is the best way to remove these unused vendors from the PO vendor drop down list? Trying to delete

Deleting Assets takes a very long time
Hi All, Not sure if this is a problem as such so I figured i'd post this as a question as its not something that's completely broken or affects us in any bad way. I noticed that now if we try to delete 50 assets or more at once, it can take up to an hour to delete these assets, so long as the browser window doesn't time out. Deleting 5 assets or less takes less than a minute. We usually run a clean up and re-scan of all assets every few months. We're currently on SD 9021 and noticed this behaviour
New incidents default to Resolution field instead of name
I'm not sure which update maybe it's the latest (8.2.0 Build 8207) but recently we have noticed that when we create a new incident, the cursor automatically jumps to the 'Resolution :' field instead of the requestors name.

Is SD+ working with Exchange email yet?
I've been running a test build of SD+ on my personal computer using a temporarily created gmail account. We feel we're ready to create the "real" build on the server and would like to use a permanent exchange based email address. I did some quick searching here in the discussion forums and am only finding years-old discussions with promises of support in future builds. It now seems to be years after those responses... Does SD+ support exchange email yet?

Page loading error
When first running ServiceDesk's tab in browser (for example, after browser close/open), we often get a message as below on screenshot: Also, this message will appear after some idle, when automatic page-refresh time is up to be. After pressing F5 for several times, SD's main page continues loading itself. How we can solve this problem? You know, hitting million times F5 is not a solution :D (Browsers - IE8, IE10, IE11) Thank you, best regards.

SDP - Auto Delete Assets
Hi, Currently we are using SDP 8.2.0 Build 8214. Can we schedule a task within SDP or outside SDP to delete assets that have not been in contact with AD for more than 90 days. We have 1000+ assets and numerous assets are joined / removed from the AD. An auto-delete task which would delete all the assets which have not contacted AD for more than 90 days would be beneficial. How do we schedule such task?
