Adding Attachments - Make Easier

ability to expand fields in the workstation view
hello, when using the summary view, would it be possible in one of your future release to have the ability to expand or contract the different field lenghts listed? for example, i have long department names, and can only see the first 20 letters or so of the department. it would be useful to have the excel-like feature of expanding the column size to show all this info. thank you.
ability to enter directly into aquisition date, expiry date and warranty date
hello, currently we do not have the ability to enter a date directly into the acquisition date, expirty data and wraranty date fields without using the Calendar selection box. typing these dates in is a lot faster than having to go through the gui each time. in addition, this field cannot be 'blanked out' once a date is entered without running an update statement in the DB. thank you for your consideration of these enhancements.
Reporting
Hi All, We use the reporting function in ServiceDesk Plus to provide management with statistics from the previous wekk - I am sure many of you do. One thing that is slightly puzzling is the fact that we are always resolving more requests than are opened, I think this is because some requests are reopened when a user replies to a request that has been closed. It confuses the figures and means that every week we have to change the statistics or answer questions as to why the are different.
ability to manually enter aquisition, expiriy and warranty dates
hello, i have 400 hundred assets i need to add the above dates to. apparently we cannot just type into this field, and have to use the GUI selection calendar, which is very clunky and slow. can you please look into the ability to actually type into this box, rather than be forced to use the GUI? thank you very much.

Attachments do not populate in Resolution area
Hi SD Plus tech, I was wondering if there was a way to add the attachment of a Solution in the Resolution area when using the "Search Solution" option, then "Copy to Resolution" feature.

Unable to assign technician, group, site when editing request
Hi, I have "Pick(ed) Up" various tickets in our system and the group got reset to -. I went into edit on these tickets but when I click on technician, group or site, the dropdown lists contain nothing. This happens in IE 7 and Firefox 2 and 3. Because the group is not set, various views that my team use will not see any of these tickets. The dropdown lists just say "Choose Technician", "Choose Group" etc but nothing is in the list.

This is because a number of our fields contain information like version numbers that can change even on a daily basis and would be great to have a script run each day that could talk to the sd api and populate with the new list.

Requester bug reported long ago... Still no fix?
Several months ago I reported a bug with AD Synchronization that (to the best of my knowledge) has yet to be addressed by the SD+ development team. The bug is such that... when I upgrade a requester from Requester allowed to view: Show only their own requests to Requester allowed to view: Show all their Department requests, the setting is reverted back to the default (Show only their own requests) every night when SD+ synchronizes with AD. This was acknowledged by Andrew and assigned Issue ID: SD-14397...

Software Allocation - Sites
Hi, We have 4 sites. In this example I have 200 licences for MS Office. I don't want to say there are 50 at site A, 150 at site B etc. I just want to associate the 200 licences with the 200 machines which are in different sites. Unless I associate the PC and the licencse to the same site it won't let me do this. Is there a way around this? All I want to show is that I have 200 and have only used 200 regardless of site. Thanks

Views of changes
Is it possible to view all changes for a particular service or for a particular asset? I would like to be able to quickly see for troubleshooting what changes have been made to a service or asset and i can't see a quick way to do this. Also it would be good, if using the relationships for assets and services that you could see changes that apply to dependancies of services. For example, if I'm trying to troubleshoot my Sharepoint and I look at the recent changes the Sharepoint service then it

Adding requesters via LDAP scan = no associated domain
We currently use SD+ across 2 domains. Domain 1 has a full list of requesters fine with the correct domain associated Domain 2 HAD users associated fine but can no longer get any more Previously we could add requesters fine and they would be associated with the correct domain, now when we point SD+ at the correct OU using LDAP referencing the user(s) are added but cannot login as they have no Domain associated. This also occurs when using an AD scan. What am I doing wrong? Dan GMT+ 0
