Need clarification on Approval functionality in the Change module
Can you please clarify how the approval process works in the Change module? When more than one CAB member is added for approval, shouldn't they both get a notification email? What if there is only one CAB member added and that person approves the change. THEN, a second CAB member is added. Will the newly added CAB member receive a notification email stating that they have a change to approve? If there is more than one CAB member added for approval on a change, do they both have to approve the change
ServiceDesk Plus Blackberry Mobile Client HTTP 504 Error
Hi, When trying to connect to SD via my Blackberry 8520 using the BB browser, I receive a HTTP 504 (Gateway Timeout) error. My colleague has an iPhone and this works fine for him. After looking around the forum, I've tried to go to http://server:port/mc from Firefox/IE on a desktop and this works fine. Can anyone help please? Regards, Phil Rich

Issue with changing Scanned Software types
SDP+ 7603 To reproduce the issue: 1. Open Assets --> Scanned Software 2. Check the checkbox on 1 or more entries 3. Change the “Move To:” dropdown box to the desired Type 4. Click the “Move” button Once complete, repeat the process again on 1 or more entries. When you click the “Move” button for the second time, the selected entries are not changed. NOTE: In addition, after this action is performed, most “Filter” dropdown boxes for any list in SD+ (e.g. Requests, Purchases) fail to work.
Forward and back buttons not in v7600?
A technician on my team pointed out the foward and backward arrow buttons are no longer present in v7600 when viewing a request. He noted the buttons used to be located in right hand corner of the request which allowed him to page through his requests as opposed to viewing a request and then clicking the request tab to go back to the request list. Would you consider reimplementing these buttons? Thanks.
Asset scans do not always report correct software versions.
All scanned systems are Windows XP, SP3 with permissions controlled by group policy. The versions are listed correctly in the registry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall. How can I troubleshoot this problem? Thanks SDP Version 7.5.0 Build 7512

Submit request closed
I have noticed that in all the builds if you 'Submit the request to be approved' that you have to specify each time to whom the email goes, and even if they approve the resolution, you still have to close it. We would like the ability to have the 'To:' field (when submitting for approval) auto populate with a specific email address, and then that person (most likely a supervisor) if he or she feels that that request and resolution was handled correctly can approve it which closed the ticket. Thanks!
Return Purchased Items in the PO system
Once an item has been marked received, how do you mark it as returned and remove it from inventory. For examle, one our guys ordered an monitor, recieved the monitor in the PO system, but then found out he ordered the wrong monitor and has to return it. He has also added it to the Asset module. So how do we mark this item as returned? Thanks

service desk "jump to" Opmanager
Since we moved Opmanager to another server, the "jump to" function from sd+ to Opmanager is broken. Where do we enter the new ip address for the Opmanager so that SD+ can locate it?
Work log
Hi All, Would it be possible to get additional radio button or similar funktion that in work log lines? Reason for this is that we have two different flat rates for service. Which is meaning that if techican will go to site/reguester cost will be example xx eur and if technican using remote access to fix problem cost will be x eur. We would want to see how much is used to whick service. These would be groupped in reports. Or is this possible to make self?
Send SMS on escalation
Hi What we would like is, depending on the priority of an incident, send an escalation SMS to the Service Manager. I can only find an option to send an email. Is it possible at all to send an SMS on escalation and/or potential SLA breaches ? kr, Peter
blue result screen when replying to email
ever since we upgraded to 7602 we get the following screen with a blue banner at the top with the word result in it when we reply to emails in a case. this only happens sometimes. closing the browser and reluanching will fix it temporarily. upgrading to 7603 did not fix the problem. see attached screenshot.
Templates (or ability to add/change fields) in solutions
As we've used the service desk system over time, our solutions database is all over the place as far as formatting, etc. It would be nice to have a template or something that's in place to give a guideline of how to format the solutions for consistency. Such as Summary Symptoms Causes Corrective actions Versions affected Other Information / Links If we could just have the ability to format the default "contents" space with this information, or the ability to add individual fields,
Reporting on re-assigned/escalated tickets
Is there a way to do a report on a re-assigned and escaleted ticket? I think this would be a handy feature - considering that most requests can be potentially be worked on by one tech for the majority of the time and then would have to re-assign it or escalate it. The original tech should have some metrics measured on his/her input on that ticket.

CMDB enhancements
A clickable Business or IT services (currently only relationships that are clickable are assets, asset components amongst a few others) as IT services or business services incorporate more than ne IT system / application it would be nice to be able to click through IT services. Also a granular dependency tree for the CMDB, i.e. more relationships. This components uses this which relies upon this, which is connected to this etc. Also the ability to see the dependencies in a dependency tree for impact
Attachements go blank after duplication
We recently upgraded to 7.6.0 Build 7602, and have noticed that when we duplicate a ticket that has an attachment, the attachment is blank on the new ticket. I searched Known Issues and did not see this.
add asset issue
Hi, whenever we add a workstation, it just replaces an old entry, instead of adding a new workstation. For example, after a network scan we have like 20 workstations. If we delete 19 of them and then add one, then we will not have two workstations, but the workstation will be replaced. Is there any resolution ? this is really buggy... Thanks.
error converting product from workstation to server

Request loses group and technician when Request Status changed via Edit Request from filtered view
If we are viewing our tickets in a filtered view (that is, a list of Open Requests, Pending Requests or some other custom view) and check to select the ticket then click the Edit Request button at the top, then only change the Request Status, the request loses Group and Technician assignment. If you look at the screenshot, this is what we see in the history tab, making it appear that the Technician actually changed those fields when in fact ONLY the Request Status field was adjusted. Let me know

Attachment Size Limit?
Is there a maximum size limit on attachments that are able to be "auto-logged" from the specified mailbox? We can't seem to get a 11MB file to attach, a 8MB one works fine, it's a PDF. Our maximum size limit for internal mail is 15MB, is it possible to increase it to 15MB? Halp :)

Any Way to shrink DB size
Hi - I was hoping that with the archiving option introduced in version 7.6 that this would facilitate reduction in DB size ? However have turned this option on, auto archiving anything over 12 months old, however it seems to put the data into a separate list still within the live DB. Whilst this makes searches back through the DB quicker as they by default dont seem to include the archived stuff, this does not appear to address the issue of ever expanding (and slowing down) database size. Is there
Custom view question
We have a number of custom views so that different technicians can see just their own assigned calls easily. I want to create an additional custom view so that each technician see their own assigned calls AND any calls that have come into the service desk and are currently 'unassigned' I dont seem to be able to do this using the advanced filtering within custom views ? Thanks

MAIL_FETCHING: Error when processing mail
Good afternoon. In last several releases such situation is observed here: If the letter contains a picture (screenshot) which have sent with Microsoft Outlook 2003/2007 in format HTML, in system SDP (7.6.0 Build 7603) that letter hangs in mailbox Exchange2007, and SDP ceases to accept mail.

Creating a new field in the resolution section
All, I have created a new field called Technican Resolution Details and I am wanting to place this on the resolution page. I am in the Update Default Request admin template page and I cant seem to drag the field into the resolution part. Can this be done? I would like to see it on the part where the technician types in the resolution but only so that technicans can see it. I dont want requesters to see this bit. Thanks Martin
control of tables backed up
I have created a couple of additional control tables in the SD database containing essentially static data I use to provide some additional reporting functionality - grouping SLA's together as one reporting entity for instance. No UI issues and reporting works fine. The thing that has just tripped me up is the backups, they are obviously controlled by a list somewhere of the table names it should backup. So I did a full backup and the restored to a test instance to carry out an upgrade/dr test and

Hardware scan remplaces identical machine but different
Sorry if my English is not very good.I have several identical machines on my network, they differ is in the MAC address in the network card. When you do the scan all I get: Model: System Product Name Service Tag: System Serial Number Therefore, one replaces the other. And if I put it manually, it erases what I added to the above. Fields changed in the hardware of the PC, they are replaced. I need 2 extra functions. The technicians in my company have shift schedules for 24 hours, it would be good
HTTP Status 500 error on login
I am getting a Tomcat error on login to ServiceDesk Plus (see attached screen shot). I've tried logging the issue online but have had no response. I've seen this mentioned on the forums a few times but no solution is posted, has anyone fixed this before ? It's a real problem as it's locked out myself (the only system admin) and our front line helpdesk person.
Asset, Network scan
One more thing: if you scan the entire network then you get workstation model correctly, as the motherboard model. If you create manually a workstation and scan it, then the workstation model is "System Product Name".
