SD+ bug in Firefox
Here's an interesting bug, which I finally decided annoyed me enough to report (it's very minor). It appears to occur only in Firefox, not IE6 or IE7, but it happens in Firefox on both XP and Vista. What happens is that when the requester list is displayed in the Admin section, the page instantly scrolls itself to the bottom while loading. It's easy to replicate. Just open SD+, click the Admin tab, and click Requesters. As the list loads, the scroll bar on the page suddenly snaps to the very bottom

Locking Requester Department
Hi, I want only technicians to be able to change the department that a Requester belongs to. The only setting I can find to do this is the Self-Service Portal Settings->Requester Details->Requesters are NOT allowed to edit their profile. I would ideally like for them to be able to edit their profile (such as email, phone number, etc), just NOT be able to change the Department drop-down. Is there some way this can be achieved? Cheers, Peter
Accessing Service Desk externally
We wish to make Service Desk accessible to our remote users externally. We are trying to crete a rule in the ISA Firewall to allow the connection through. However, when we try to connect to Service Desk we are prompted by a Windows login box. Is there any way to get round this so that users are directed straight to the Service Desk login page instead. If we set the rule in ISA for internal access only, we get through without a prompt. Can anyone shed some light on this for me please. Many thanks

Track changes to assets
Currently if you go into an asset you have the Requests tab which will show you all the requests logged against that asset. However, there is no Changes tab. To me it seems more important to track all changes performed to an asset (server, etc). We're given the option to list an asset involved in a change. How can I report against changes performed on a particular asset? Many thanks for your help. Regards, Mario
Service Desk Solutions removing all extra line spaces
Trying to implement SD Solutions, but the product removes all lines between paragraphs.

SLA Clock Time Report
Hi, I want to run a report that will allow me to calculate the average time it takes to resolve a request. I have assigned SLAs to some of the priorities that we use and often when the status changes the clock stops running. Therefore a call may be open for three days but the clock time may only show 5 hours. Is there a report I can produce that will show the clock time for a request, i.e. resolved date/time (not closed date/time) minus open date/time, removing any periods when the clock has been

Deleting/Removing Requesters
Hi, We are currently import all requesters using the Ad Sync tool. My question is there any automated process for removing requesters when they leave the organisation? In AD they are moved to a disabled users O/U. When using the AD sync, this folder is excluded from the import, however the user remains in Service Desk as there seems to be no means of removing them other than manual deletion Thanks Paul
