Active Directory
It would be useful if SD only imported user accounts that are enabled in the AD you can do this by making sure the value of userAccountControl <> 514 in the ldap query. (514 is the value that identifies an account as disabled) Also would it be possible for those of us who wish to extend our AD or just use the description field of a computer to identify who it is assigned to to import this from the AD. This would save much admin work for us we currently fill in the description field of a computer

Default Domain ?
With V5 users now see the "domain" drop down box this really confuses my users as there are a dozen domains "visible" but all "users" are on one. I would really like to go back to how V4 handled this and hide this dialoge entirely ? Or at the very least set it so the default is my domain ?
MySQL on another server
Is there a way to setup SD Plus and your other products to use a MySQl server on another physical server. I have a couple of other products from you guys and would like to setup a dedicated MySQl server to be the backend to your products is there anyway to do this? I know it probably wont be as fast but for me it will be more efficient for me to do it this way.
Support suggestion
The 2 times I've emailed support because I haven't been able to upgrade my database (which is 2 times too many, but that's another issue), I've been asked to email my database backups so support can troubleshoot the issue. I'd like to suggest customer support re-think this practice as for many companies this violates company security policies (which could get an administrator fired) and in some situations could violate federal or state law depending on what information was in their system.

Updating Requests
We have recently purchased ServiceDesk Plus and will be implenting shortly. My question is how do you get a Requester to Update a support job via email? We would like to be able to have the technician email the Requester and ask for additional information. When the Requester replies to the above email it automatically gets re-logged into the Helpdesk with a new Request ID. Is there a way to stop this from happening, eg. by changing the subject to say "update request id 12345". I know the system allows

Queue becomed unassigned upon edit
Hi - I've seen this problem reported in other threads but have not seen a clear resolution. I have two groups of technicians, each monitoring a different queue by way of role assignment. Email comes in and is assigned appropriately to the correct queue so the different groups of technicians can view only the requests for their queue. A technician for the queue will "pickup" the work order making the technician assignement and each of the technicians for that queue can still view the request and everything
SD+ reporting issues
When doing monthly reporting I've run into several issues: 1. Total number of calls differs from one report to another. E.g., All request reports shows 650 for time frame specified. Time spent reports shows 470 requests for the same period. 2. Customized reports do not seem to reflect the amount of tickets created between certain dates. E.g., when changing dates in the filter number of calls received stays the same for 20 Dec - 31 Jan and for 10 Jan - 31 Jan. 3. Completion time by category by technician

Display of Expired Vendors
How do I make SErviceDesk display all expired contract. I have more than 25 (29 to be exact) - so I changed the selection window to show "50". When it refreshes it shows 50 OPEN CONTRACTS.

HTTP Status 500 - Error
Hi SD, Please find below, attached screenshot for the errormessage "HTTP Status 500- " which we are always encountering during our evaluation. What does this error mean? This randomly appears when I click any link. Also, sometimes the application re-prompts for the user and password (login portion) upon clicking a link (ex: when I click 'Admin' tab, 'Users' link, etc.), even though I am already logged-in.

Creating a Service Request from a Call Template
Hi, We are currently evaluating ServiceDeskPlus, and with the many features that we are looking for in a helpdesk application, one important feature that we need is the creation of a service request from recurring, or call templates. Since our clients still don't have a portal/access to self-service, most of their calls are logged by Customer Care. So what we need is the capability of creating a service request, where we can also choose not only the solution, but also the problem/call description

Business rules won't set priority
It seems that no matter what I do, I can't get a business rule to set a priority of anything other than Normal. In other words, I have an email that comes in stating that the request has a priority of high. I use the business rule to take out the statement with the priority in the description to try and get it to register as high. Does anybody have any suggestions?
