force users to update password for support center plus
Hi there, We are planning a large cut over of users to SCP and we want to be able to provide users with an innitial password that they can then update themselves the first time they log-in to the system. Is there a way to activate such a feature in SCP? So basically we would use CSV file to load all Contact info with user/password. Then we send out a notification email telling the Contacts the temporary user/password. Then, the first time they log-into the system they are forced to change to new
error report for CSV file import
Hello, I have just loaded a CSV file and obtained a report that some fields were overwritten and others failed. However, it provides no indication of what fields failed or were overwritten, so how is this helpful to me??? what should i do now? manually check every entry against the original file to make sure it went through ok?? seems to me to defeat the purpose of a CSV file.

Replying from email to existing request on SupportCenter?
Hi, I did testing on the relationship between a chain of emaill CCing support email (i.e. replies not generated through SupportCenter). 1. I sent an email request (Subject: Test request) to SupportCenter with CCing my Outlook email address. 2. I did "Reply to All" from my Outlook email. 3.

multiple contacts to unique Account using CSV
Hi there, Anybody else had a hard time importing multiple contacts to the same account using CSV? When i try to do it the Account information gets overwritten. I even tried making a CSV file that repeats all the account information on every line of the file (along with a unique contact per line) but this just seems to create errors and the contacts are not added to the system. Any ideas or maybe a sample file that works properly?

Contract - SLA with different response and resolve time (day/night/weekend)
Hello, i have special SLAs with different resonse times and different resolve times. But I can not find a possibility to define them in SupportCenterPlus. For example: - Operational Hours general operational hours are from Monday to Friday from 8am to 6pm. - SLA: is from Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm - with 1 hour response time and 2 hours resolve time the rest of the time (5pm to 9am, Weekend and Holiday) we have 2 hours response time and 5 hours resolve time. Is there a way to display this data correctly?
Refresh button on request being currently viewed
I note there is the ability to do an automatic timed refresh when viewing "my open or unassigned" request. Can we please a manual fresh button on both that page, and one on the "view request" page too (https://scphost/WorkOrder.do?woMode=viewWO&woID=2512&). Many times a client will immediately respond back, and you have to refresh the entire browser, or navigate away and back to the request to see the update. dcc

Time Entry
Hi, Would be great if in the Time Entry could have a "START" and "STOP" button. With this the Support Rep could start a job and when they finished it just stop.

Canned Responses through Entry Time
I would like to suggest a improvement in the process of "Entry Time". In the "Entry Time" we could have a option to send a "Canned Response" when we select a specific "Time Entry Type" or a button to "Save + Send "Canned Response"". I think it will give more usability to the system, because some time when we try to contact a customer we need to send a email and request a contact from the costumer so we use the Canned Response. I hope it can be add to next release if its a good suggestion. Best Regards,

Email template?
When a customer is sending through an email request, would it be possible to provde them with a template or xml form for them to send through to us so that it pre-populates some common fields (like 'product', 'issue type', etc.). This would save the issue from having to log in to our support site to log a detailed request. It would also save our support staff from having to constantly EDIT a support request to put in some basic fields that a user can do. Also.. we want to make it so some of the applications

Would be great if when We write the resolution We could select a Resolution Type. With this We could search for Request with the same Resolution Type and see if our Customer needs something more than a simple Support.

Ability to change the status of a SR automatically when an update is received from the customer
Hi ManageEngine, We would like to have the ability to change automatically the status of a SR when a new email is received from the customer. The idea would be: Having an option in the Admin tab where we could define to have the SR changed to a customized status, for example: If the SR is in a user created status like "Awaiting Customer", if a new email is received from the customer and added as an activity to the SR, be able to automatically change the status of the call as "Awaiting Engineer"

Notification Rules Problem
I'm testing out SupportCenter (7607) to see if it would be a good solution for our support group. It's working fine with the exception of the notification rules. Specifically the "update" notification. It seems that when a Support Rep replies to a ticket via e-mail, the Support Rep gets both update e-mails and the user gets none. The web interface seems to work fine. In addition, every time I change any data on the ticket it sends an update notification. Consequently, our customers would get
Bulk Import of the same request for multiple accounts / contacts
We provide managed services for at least 30 different accounts, and often (at least twice a week or more) we have the same task to perform across all (or at least most) of these accounts. A prime example would be applying a patch to a Blackberry Enterprise Server. The end users don't enter these maintenance requests - we do it on behalf of the clients. So right now, we have to manually enter a support request for every single account for every single maintenance task, which is very time consuming

Registered contact issue
Hi, I set contact auto-addition like this. Then, I sent email request from hotmail account (jeff_a_@hotmail.com). The request was logged and contact was also logged. Then, I tried to register using hotmail account on Customer portal, but I got this message. So, I clicked on "Forgot password" and found this message. These two messages makes me very confused. I looked up the contact from Admin page and I could find it under "All contects". But I could not find it under "Registered Contacts".

Product associate to a Group
In our company the Products are associated to a specific Group, but I didn´t find a way to configure it in SC+. So i would like to suggest this process. A configuration to set that a specific product is associate with a exclusive group ou for all groups. Because sometimes we need to change the Group and the Product associated to that request. If the user forget to change the Product it will be use to proceed with the Group that this Product is not supported. Am i clear ? Best Regards, Kyner
Documents specific to Client and Products
We have multiple large corporate clients. We would like to be able to load documents that are specific to each client eg IT system layout plans, handover documents etc. Obviously we don't want other customers to see those documents. Can we do that? Also can we load generic documents against a Product and so when you set that a client has that product they can then see the various documents related to the product? Thanks in advance.
