mobile number displays in new request
Hi. I'm using SDP 4.1.0 Build Number 4108 and have imported users from AD. I've noticed that if a requester has a mobile number available, this number is displayed in a new request instead of the number in the "phone" field. However, if there is no mobile number, the phone number is displayed correctly. Has this issue been previously addressed? Thanks, Amy

Additional Fields - URL
It would be nice to be able to add a URL field to Assets... We would like to be able to add the URL for our printers, which would let us manage them right from SD+.

Problems connecting with linux PC
Hello, I have a problem scanning a linux server for the inventary. The message shown is : "Connection to RPC server in the workstation failed". I have set up a telnet session. I wonder which configuration parameters should I modify to find that server, or any alternatives in the protocols/ports to use. I've already followed these steps: admin -> network scan (with the address, user and password) Thanks all.
Email Fetchin
We use email & voicemail for service requests; however, we can only fetch from one mail box. It would be nice to be able to fetch from multiple mailboxes. Right now, I can only poll from one or the other...
Request Form Customizer
Currently & in v6.0, it looks like the Request Form Customizer is a global configuration, and will affect all forms/request templates. Also, it looks like the Request - Additional Fields is a global configuration... We would like to see the ability for each Request Template to have its own form customizer ad additional fields configuration.

Re-Opening a request - Notification
Unless I am missing something, shouldn't the technician be notified if the ticket is re-opened?
Feature Requests For Service Desk
Hey Everyone, Here's a few features I'm wondering about and if they'll be in SD 6 or able to be added at some point. 1. Optional Notification Rules. For example, I'm in the IT group and we have the rules setup to email the requester when the ticket is closed. Another group, Logistics, does not want that option. Can this be added? 2. Optional ability for users to see their own tickets. This is sort of like the first rule. In our case, there may be times when confidential information entered into the
Custom Reports (sub queries)
We would like the ability to create reports with sub queries. For example: - We want to create an asset inventory report (showing Requester & Asset Name) - We would like to be able to additionally group based on the Requester location The resultant report will show each Location -> Requester (with owned assets)
Asset Import
We want to import all of our assets; however, we are unable to import the owner field. We would like to see the ability to import the owner field in the form of FirstName LastName. Of course we would need SD+ to be able to link the requester as the owner.
Creatin a PO number
I would like to use the PO creation in your SD+, we are already using the helpdesk and find it very useful. How can I create individual, incremental numbering when any text can be used in the field at present. Different departments use the PO database at present and I would imagine that it would be prefered to stay that way as it is not only used for IT equipment and a new process may just cause confusion if it were to be run alongside an existing system. Does the system at the moment check for duplicates?
Modify login screen question
Hello, I would like to modify the login screen extensively to better match my current web environment. I have looked for the html flies to modify, but I can not seem to locate them. Can someone help with this. I can find the .gif files and make modifications directly to the images, but I am really needing to modify the html code and make some modifications. Please help. If the html code is housed in the SQL database, then I would like to request an interface to make modifications. I am in the final
Logging into SD using current credentials
Hi there We use Active Directory and have setup SD to use AD authentication. Is it possible to remove the need for a user to enter their domain account details when logging into SD and for it to login using the current user credentials? Many thanks Tim
Downloading previous versions of SD+
Is there a location to download previous versions of service desk plus? I know that the updates are good, and I don't dispute it, but I need an old version to install on a new server. I need to download version 5501, which is the current version of my production server. Then I can do a backup/transfer on the production server to the new server; then I can do updates to the latest version on the new server and my current production will be a backup by default and eventually phased out. Thanks!

Removed Software-Rescanned Machine-Software still shows
I removed a software package, deleted the folders, removed the reg key for the package, and checked the HKEY_LOCAL\...\Windows\Uninstall and it doesnt show up there either. But when I rescan the machine, not only does the history not reflect the removal of the software package, but it is still showing up in my scanned software as residing on the machine. Yes, I can just delete the software, but when I remove software from a workstation, shouldn't it be reflected by the next scan?
Reduce Number of License
The only thing I found in this forum for reducing the number of licenses purchased for a software product is in October 2005 where the solution is to delete the asset and recreate it. Please tell me that there is a better solution now. I simply want to change my number of licenses purchased from 18 to 14.

Using DNS alias with ServiceDesk
I am trying to setup an alias for ServiceDesk so my users can access it by typing in helpdesk.domain.com. I have specified the alias information in the Service Desk software. I have also created a DNS Alias CNAME that points helpdesk.domain.com to servername.domain.com:8080. When I go into a browser, it will not bring up the ServiceDesk site. i believe the problem is with the port number on the end of the FQDN in my Alias record. How do I get around this so it automatically direct the user to the

AD has a 'managedBy' attribute which could be used to automatically populate the owner... Is this something that can be considered for the next update?
Data Dictionary - Service Desk Plus
We want to start building some customize reports. Is it possible to get a data dictionary? There are quite a few reports we want to do across a variety of modules, so I guess it is best not to list all the fields I want here. Cheers.
Entering @ in IE7 does not work
When typing an @ in the description of a request (this is a "rich text" box), nothing happens. All other fields (plain text) are no problem. This problem occurs with IE7. Tested on different computers. Problem does not occur in Firefox or in Firefox IE Tab (a plugin). Not yet tested in IE6.
Business Rule Logic Breaks...
I have setup a business rule: IF 'Location' = 'Salt Lake City' AND 'Category' IS NOT 'Web Page Blocked' THEN route to 'Some Tech' If I create a ticket with the Location set to 'Salt Lake City', and choose a category other than 'Web Page Blocked', the request does not get routed to the tech specified (request remains 'Unassigned') Any ideas?
Error scanning workstation after changing it in other domain
Hello, I received this error with scanning a workstation: 'Either access denied for the user or the remote DCOM option might be disabled in the workstation' after adding it in another domain. It was succesfully scanned first in the old domain. (I changed the DCOM settings which I found in this platform, with no result.) At last I edit my workstation in the inventory, and changed by 'General Info' the old domain to the new domain. Now the scan succeeded. I thought that when I scan a workstation and

Automatic login
Hi, I have built an intranet which user log in with their AD username/password. We already had a small helpdesk system that I built, but I want to replace it with serviceDesk Plus, but I want to put a link in my intranet to the system but I don't want to ask user to log twice, once in the intranet and once in the serviceDesk application. Is there a way that I can pass the username password to the APP ? Thanks Patrick
Dynamic Active Directory Update
We are testing this to determine if we are going to us it. Question... Let's assume we import users from Active Directory and the import is successful. Tomorrow, I add another user to AD. Does HelpDesk automatically dynamically update the users in the HelpDesk software OR do you have to manually add the user in the HelpDesk software, assuming he/she will some day submit a service request?
Business rule overrides category technician

report on response time?
Hi All, i'd like to be able to set response targets, i.e. high priority calls should be responded to within 1 hr, medium within 4 hrs etc. Response times are a much better KPI than fix times don't you think? Anyway, is there a way I can first set the targets, and then generate a report to see what % of calls have met their fix time? (by week, month etc) My idea of a response would be either a reply to the requester via the job in SD, or a note being added, (Which i assume would trigger in the history)

Event Log option for All assets in SD+
Dear ServiceDesk-Support team, Is it a possible to activate Event Log option for All assets in SD+? Would be the best to know who from technicians (if they have FULL or EDIT inventory roles) did the changes in the assets fields, what was changed, when and why. For example, if asset is assigned to a new user/department, the information about the previous owner should stored in the BD. Thank you for your help and assistance
AD - Scheduled polling
It would be nice to have SD+ automatically poll AD for user accounts at an interval that can be set by the administrator. Also, it will be important to only update the user in SD+ with new information from AD, and not overwrite SD+ settings for that user.
Gmail email account
anyone, do SD+ works with any gmail account.
Solutions Bug?
"how-to" was entered as a keyword in a solution. When searching for "how-to", it returns no results. However searching on "how" does. Is this a limitation of MySQL interpreting the "-" as a special character? Thanks, Christian
