Active Directory Deleted
Hi, Just a quick question we have a number of users who we have deleted from AD. Service Desk is showing the list to remove them but my Service Desk manager asked what happens to the requests previously logged if we delete the requesters from AD? Do the old requests lose the requester details or are they kept but the requester themselves are removed?
Help Me Understand
We use auto assign to round robin some of our tickets, which sounds like a great idea. However, we've noticed some extreme irregularities with it. Let me start by showing you the settings that relate. Here are the auto assign settings: Here are the group settings for one of the groups in question: And finally . . . here are the rather bizarre results (just from today for example): So, six people in the group, and their ticket count: Brian - 4 Andrew - 2 Joe - 3 Mark - 3 Daniel - 1 Michael - 1 Consider

Custom Login Screen Not displaying after saving from inbuilt designer
Good Morning, This morning i upgraded our instance of SDP to the latest version (10008) and noticed that there was a feature to allow you to customise the login screen using a inbuilt interface. I have done this by modifying a few of the colours and adding a little bit of extra text but left everything else as it is. The preview was displaying the screen exactly as i would like it to display. I have then saved these changes and logged out and now rather than displaying a login screen it just displays
Change Management Roles & Permissions
Folks, This subject continues to confound our organization, and when we talk to support, we start talking in circles. I've asked about this before, but I'll ask about it again: Other than the default role, what role do you assign to change roles? SDP comes with a default set of stages and Change Roles with permissions, but only a single User Role (SDChangeManager), which effectively grants a technician the full permissions to the change management module. (Although if I make a custom role, add the

Way for force completion of fields before assigning Technician

Survey Email Configuration
Running ServiceDesk Plus Build 10006. For the request-based survey, an email goes out to the requester when a call ticket closes. Before we upgraded, the $SurveyLink would just send the link to the survey. After the upgrade to 10, it adds a second link for "Skip Survey". Is there a way to turn that off so it only sends the survey link? In our environment, if someone doesn't want to take the survey they just delete the email. Thanks!

Self-service to the rescue! But how effective is your solution base?
According to a study by Forrester, 72% of US customers prefer to use a company's website to get answers to their questions rather than contact the concerned service desk via telephone or email. If that number feels a little big, ask yourself: When was the last time you picked up the phone and called your service desk to raise a request or report a problem? Well, unless the issue is a show-stopper, we all prefer the good old knowledge base articles. With more and more customers turning to self

Is there a way to view Cumulative permissions for roles?
Hi folks, I have many technicians (>100) with many different security requirements. Because the technicians may have multiple roles associated, I'm thinking of creating a tool that will show me the cumulative permissions (much like a resultant set of policy tool) so that I can see the cumulative effects of applying a role on a technician. My questions is: 1) Is there already a way to do this? Thanks, Adam
