Asset search results that return over 50 rows display incorrectly
When using the search box on the left-hand side with Asset selected, if the criteria you specify returns more than 50 results (which are then spread over 3 pages of 25 per page) then the display behaves oddly. The first 25 rows display normally, but clicking the next page button takes you to rows 26-50 which are in fact just the first 25 rows repeated. If you then click next page again and move to rows 51-75 you get different results as you would expect. I've tried other filters and Asset is
Unable to login to SD after AD Server Died
One of my AD servers had a hardware failure and was taken out of the farm. Since that happened, I get the username and/or password error and am unable to login. I have tried to login locally and follow some of the steps, however, it's still not working. Any suggestions?
Testing upgrade 7015 to 7507
Hi, I want to test the upgrade from 7015 to 7507 by taking a copy of the Service Desk Plus including SQL database, here is what I have done so far: Took a copy of the SQL database and restored it to another SQL server - simple Installed another instance of ServiceDesk Plus, same release as the original, on to another server and pointed it at the copy of the database. Took a backup of the settings from the first server using backupdata.bat and then ran restore.bat on the test server When
Notify requester when changed
If a technician changes the requester , it would be nice to notify the new requester that they have a request in the system.. ie - we have a voicemail system which pushes all voicemails into servicedesk from a single email . When the technician listens to the message , he assigns the correct requester ( instead of the voicemail) , the system does not send an email to the actual requester when assigned .
How can I find requests that have closed problems, and problems that have closed changes
I'm sure there is an easy answer, but I cannot find any list or report that shows me a list of requests where the problem has now been closed. Likewise, when a change is closed, I cannot see how this updates the Problem in any way, or notifes any users the problem can now be resolved (except by email). I have seen the email notifications, but emails are a one time only action that are easily forgotton, or delivered to a technition on holiday, sick or otherwise unable to progress the case imediatly.
Remove "Site" from Requester Details
Hi, I doubt it's possible now, but perhaps in a future update we could have the ability to remove "site" from the requester details. We've had a custom field for "building" for a few years now, and while site is now essentially the same thing, I don't want to switch from using one field to the other. Honestly, the best bet would be to split up requester details so that each individual piece can be enabled or disabled. Thanks.

"Sort By" very useful for Reports
Hello, Is it possible to add the "Sort By" option when you are creating or editing reports? We really need this option available as we have very large reports that we would like to have organized from the source rather than organizing the data from Excel after the report is generated. Thanks, Mike

Code to delete all requesters at once
Anyone know the code to delete all the requesters in the db? I imported 91k istead of 1.9k. It would take me quite a while to delete them page by page. I am hoping to do this via an update statement from within SDP query. Thanks.

Adding Entprise Software
When I go to Assests, add new software and select Enterprise, it does not allow me to put how many licenses I have purchased. If I purchase 20 office licenses, I should be able to put that in there, so that when I scan, it tells me that I have the right amount purchased and installed. I am pretty new, so maybe I am doing something wrong. Anyone help on this?
7.5 server asset bug?
Hi I'm evaluating 7.5. I love the new IT asset type "server", but there seems to be a problem with this.

Some assets being detected as workstation
I’m currently evaluating ServiceDesk and have stumbled across a problem with the asset scanning. The problem is that once the scan has completed, there are a number of printers, routers and access points that have allocated to the Workstation group under IT Assets. Is there any way I can move these assets into the correct group? Thanks in advance.
Impact Details not available in reports
I'm suprised that I don't find Impact Details available in the normal list of available columns in a Tabular Report. I'm sure I could get it out of a query report, but I loose some capabilities, such as graphing, in a query report. I'm running build 7504 - this isn't fixed in a later build, is it?

SDP Browser only working on server
Our SDP application can be run from a browser only on the SDP server itself. When I try to run it from a client PC it gives me the "Internet Explorer cannot display the web page" The only things that I changed was the SECPOL setting for AD pass-through as per forum notes "Send NTLMv2 response only" to "Send LM & NTLM -- use NTLMv2 session security if negotiated." I made this change on the server, but then changed it back again and rebooted. Now I can only run the SDP on the server itself. Any
