ServiceDesk ITSM Meetup Group - Sacramento, CA
All - Can you tell me if there are meet up groups available in the Sacramento, CA area for ServiceDesk to learn more about using the full ITSM capabilities of the application? We are considering another ITSM application but want to give ServiceDesk a chance before completely changing applications. We are looking to make some fundamental changes to the way that we use ServiceDesk today. I was hoping that we could get some assistance from you on putting together a plan of attack. As I have mentioned
Option to allow Requester to select another requester when opening Service Catalog
Hi Guys, Is there an option or alternative to allow Requesters (specifically managers) to select another Requester on the Requester Name Field when opening a Service Catalog?

Good day, everyone! We are delighted to announce the inception of this year's instalment of the Boot Camp series today!

To brush up your knowledge on CSI and to learn more, take a quick quiz.
Case sensetive search in Requester field name for cyrillic letters
Hi! After updating from 9226 to 9317 and changing MS SQL database engine to internal Postgres we found a bug - case sensetive search in Requester field name for cyrillic letters. For example, if requester name is "Test" it can be found by typing "test" or "Test", but if it's written as "Тест", than typing "тест" is not an option. This behaviour can be reproduced on demo.servicedeskplus.com
Where Do We Find Annoucements in Build 9406?
How do I make annoucements in build 9406? I just updated from build 9326 to 9406, and I, as an administrative technician, no longer see Annoucements in Home. I tried customizing the Technican Home Page, but Annoucment does not show up in the Existing Widgets either. FYI: As a requester, Annoucement is still on the Home page.
Asset States
Can we add a Asset State called Standalone which will act like Disposed where the Standalone assets will not be scanned. We have lots of standalone computers that are only scanned through Standalone scans. Now everyday ServiceDesk is trying to scan them but they are not on our network so we get errors that Scan Failed.
Set Due by Date as NULL when assigned to specific Groups
Could not find an existing thread for this... Need to set 'Due by Date' as NULL when the Request is reassigned to specific Groups that organize their work prioritization in a separate tool.

Incoming Email Field Modifier Triggers?
In my previous job, we used Spiceworks, which had the cool functionality of being able to set the Ticket Fields by putting in specific keywords or values. EXAMPLE -------------------------- Set ticket priority: #priority high #priority low Close a ticket: #close I'm not all that familiar with Python scripting, but I wanted to see if anyone has done anything similar in ServiceDesk Plus?

Widget question
Hi, Our team have all added a widget to the top left of the Dashboard to allow us to see 'Time spent' on SRs each day. I've two queries about this: 1) Currently the widget shows what sort of requests you have worked on but does not give you the actual hours/minutes spent overall for the day (as it does when you run a report). Is it possible to add this to the widget? 2) We only added the Dashboard on Monday but every morning when we come into the office, the widget has shifted to the bottom left

SDP API - Onboarding/Offboarding with Powershell

In addition to SDP API calls, they use native AD powershell commands, as well as ADManagerPlus API calls.

Requests by email
Hello, is there a way when a requestor sends in an email with a specific word in the title that this will then populate all the relevant fields or activate a specific template? For example we get requests to release emails from our exchange, when a request of this nature is sent in then the fields would be populated with the correct cats, priorities and then it's own specific SLA.

Request reply opens in wrong window
I'm using Firefox Quantum 59.0.2, running in full screen mode on the right window on my desktop. When I click the Reply button on a request the "Mail to Requester" window opens in the center of the left window. If I use IE or Chrome the window opens in the correct (right) window, but I prefer using Firefox. I just checked and the "About" and "License" links in the help menu do the same thing. We're running ServiceDesk Plus, version 9.4 Build 9400, and I'm running Windows 10 1607 on my desktop. Anybody
Self Service "welcome" message
Hello! Is the new message in the self service portal customisable? (Once you've clicked through the Submit a Request link). At the moment, it doesn't seem to make much sense (why does it talk about "paper"??) and is causing more confusion than help! Thanks
Add a new filter option to Advanced Filter for a custom report
Hi - is there a way to add a new filter option under advanced filters? Long story short, I import a file when new plans are added. Currently we have to update three different queries based on plan year end. I want to add a filter for 'Plan Year end'. This way it would automate the updates as the filters would be more like if = 3,6,9,12 pull these plans or if = 1,4,7,10 pull these plans. Thank you

Automatically fill Response time field when ticket assigned to another technician
Hi All, we need to know is it possible to get the response time based on when the technician is assigned to another technician. We have a use case here, and many others customer i encounter have similiar issue, that is all the ticket is handled by the helpdesk, and then, the helpdesk as the tier 1, sorting the ticket to respective technician, lets say tier 2.

Problem restoring database to new server - Application will not start
Hi, I'm trying to migrate our ServiceDesk Plus from Windows Server 2003 to a new server running 2012 R2. I have installed the same version of ServiceDesk on both servers, taken a backup from the old server and copied it to the new one. I have then run the restoredata from an elevated command prompt.

If-Else Not working
Hello, I'm having a problem with my script. Here is what I'm trying to do: 1. Copy a response to a resource field to the description when the ticket is submitted 2. If the requester entered information in the description, I want it to appear under a section called "user comments" in the new description 3. If the requester left the description blank, I only want the resource field copied to the new description (no "user comments") 4. I only want information copied once when the ticket is submitted

Can we please have an icon to symbolize requests associated to Problem Tickets?
When we have a Problem that generates a number of Incidents, we often have to go through our queue and quickly associate the Incident to the problem. I'd like to have an icon (such as we have for email send/reply, note, tasks configured) so that we can see that the incident has or has not been associated with the problem. Otherwise, we have to open every ticket just to see if it has been assigned to a problem. Thank you, Adam

Rather than having to type each persons name into the To: for CC: fields of the Reply email, would like to type PX and send. *Would

Adding mouse-over text and information buttons to form fields
Hi folks, One of many use cases is that I have a 5-character limited text field that I want the user to put in a username. The field is called "User Name." (We don't use domain name as our users rarely know what that is.) Mouse-over text: Presently, when I mouse over this custom field, the mouse-over text simply displays the field name. Can the mouse-over text be customized or show the description rather than the field name? Informational Button: It would be great to have an informational button
