Multiple E-mail Accounts
We have a large number of users who have multiple E-mail accounts and as such don't always send in a request using the same E-mail Address. Because of this, we end up with several different users for a single person. This means that they are unable to log in with 1 account to see all of their related tickets. Would it be possible to enable multiple E-mail Addresses for a single account? This way, regardless of which account they send their mail from, it would be logged under the same user. Many thanks,
Attaching multiple files

Custom report without time constraints?
I'm trying to write a report in 7.6, and I want to select "all" completed items regardless of date. However, I am being forced to select a time parameter. I need everything, regardless of date. I don't want to change the "from" and "to" date range every time I run the report, and the pre-determined ranges are far too restricting. I have other parameters for limiting the output of the report, so I'm not worried about making a report that is "too large". How can I get rid of the date requirement?

Cluster IP Report/Query Help
Hello, I need some help on a issue I am seeing. I am new to SDP, so keep that in mind :) In the assets tab I can see my cluster machine with multiple IP addresses. When I generate a report there is only one IP address that shows. I need to see all the IP's in the report. Is there a query I can run that will show the server name and all the IP addresses associated with it? Like I said, I can see the ip's in the asset area, but the report is not picking all of them up. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Service Desk Plus Purchase Order Requester
Hi All, We have been using SD Plus for a number of years now and would like to make the move to using the PO part of the application. I can see where you can make a requester a PO approver however cannot see where a standard requester can actually create a PO. Can this be done or can only a technician only create a PO? Thanks Brett
Increase number of "Request - Additional Fields"
Hi, Can the number of Text Additional Fields be increased from the current limit of 24. We have already used the maximum available to create our custom request templates. Also it would be useful if there was more customisable options available with the request template to create headers and group fields together - similar to the requester details.

E-mail technician when a request is appended by reply template
Have these been altered? Before the upgrade to SDP 8.0 when SDP sent out 'request is appended' emails is contained the information that had been added to the request which saves a huge amount of time having to check the tickets each time just to find out there is no action to take. I have had a look at the template and there does not appear to be a way to add the required infomation.... Anyone else noticed this?

Send CAB notification to specific members
Currently when the "Send for Recommendation" button is clicked in a change, an email is created with all of the CAB members pre-populated. However, if you add a new CAB member after this initial notification is sent, there is no way to send a notification to that one person - everyone has to be notified a second time. It would be nice to have checkboxes next to the CAB members (checked by default) to indicate who to send the message to, or some similar feature so that the recipient list can be customized.

User reply to a ticket response creates a new ticket

Agent Scanning in 8.0
Is there any benefit to installing the agent and using this feature other than what the note states about faster scans to capture only the differences? When I suggested this feature a couple of years ago it was to scan all exe files on a PC so we could search for malware or prohibited software that was not picked up as regular installed software, not in the registry. Also, does anyone know if once the agent is installed, and you click Scan Now from SDP, does this use the agent, or does it still use
Duplicate Users
Are user accounts being created based on the E-mail ID and are these suddenly case sensitive? I am suddenly getting duplicate users being created (who have existing accounts in the system). This is going to become a nightmare to manage if this is the case! Further investigation into this would suggest that it is based on the username rather than the E-mail. I have changed the case of an E-mail Address and a new account was created. The difference was that the username for the original account was

Request ID changes when splitting
I'm not sure I'd even call this bug, but I've noticed this in Service Desk version 8. Let's say a request comes in with ID #2. and you want to Merge it with ID #1. The request gets merged but then you decide later you have to split it again. This time after you split it, it now has request ID #3. In prior versions it would keep the same ID. Not really an issue but curious. Eric

Assign a Problem to a Group rather than technician
Any chance the Problem module can get a small change to match request module, that of being able to assign the work to a group and/or technician rather than just a technician. Suppose same goes for a Change as well, but my immediate issue is with problem management and allowing queue of work to be built up from some legacy issues that are have been migrated in as Incidents but are really Problems and want to get them out of the daily work queues and into the Problem queue for investigation and resolution.
