failed imports from active directory
Hi there, great tool, I love it! But: We get around 40 errors while importing requesters from active directory. It seems like the German special characters are causing the errors because many typical German names are missing. How could I solve this? Error Messages: com.adventnet.persistence.DataAccessException: [ImpactDefinition] null, message from server: "Duplicate entry 'Quählen' for key 'ImpactDefinition_UK1'" java.lang.NullPointerException Thanks a lot and greetings from Germany JB

Hi, We have a form in our request catalog with some custom fields like floor and building. Triggerd by a business rule I want to forward this information to a Technican by email.

Script for updating Requester field
Hello, I know you can do a mass import of Requesters but is there a way I can do a mass update of a particular field? Basically for around 600 of my 2000+ requesters imported from AD, I need to be able to amend the Allowed to view field to show Department Requests. Rather than go through each one manually I was hoping there would be a way to update them in one. I've already got the below script to identify the records I want to update. SELECT AaaUser.USER_ID,AaaUser.FIRST_NAME "FullName",AaaLogin.NAME

Trigger external program when incident logged
Hi, I've created a business rule that when a user raises a request/incident for a particular category it is automatically assigned to a particular group. I want to take this a step further and assign to a group, call an external program to create a ticket in Jira and then update the request/incident within Servicedesk Plus with the ticket number from jira, then close the incident.... Is it possible to trigger a call to an external program within Servicedesk plus? Thanks Steve
modify login page + pass-through auth?

Task Creation in Service Catalog Request?
Hi. I am configuring our "New Hire" request form in the service catalog. I'd like to create a task when the request is submitted that pulls information from the request form. For example, in the request form, the HR rep is filling in the new employee's name, office location, manager, job title, etc. I want to create a task for our desktop support technician that tells him to set up a new AD account for the employee. I'd like the task description to include the information that the HR rep filled in
Updating assets with Servlet API and PowerShell Invoke-WebRequest starts to jam after 79 assets updated
I'm updating assets through ME Servlet API using PowerShell Invoke-Webrequest cmdlet. Source material is in XML format where script read assets and updates them to ManageEngine. I'm logging result codes from Servlet API to see how updates have been performing.

I can see from API result log that it randomly can update

Auto assign incident/request or task at certain time/date
I would like to know if anyone has a rule or a way to auto assign an incident template or task to auto send on a certain time of the week or month to a assigned technician. I have looked and can't seem to find a way to do this. It seems that the incident has to be assigned before a task will generate, but that is not what I have been requested to do. My group wants it to automatically generate on a specific day to remind the technician that it needs to be completed. Weekly/Quarterly jobs/tasks.

Notification Rules based on Template
Is there a way to change the Notifications based on a request template? Example: When a request is opened/closed with a certain template I don't not want the requestor to get notified at all, but the technicians do get notified. When a request is opened/closed with the default template, I do want the requestor to get notified as well as the technicians. Any way to accomplish this? I tried using junk filters based on subject content, but then all email is suppressed to both requestor and tech. Thanks
Report on Request Status on a Certain Day
Hi all, I'm looking to create a report that shows us how many tickets are open on a certain day. It doesn't matter when they were opened or if they were closed after it but simply on Jan 31st how many tickets had the status set to open. Looking at the report builder the simple date selection doesn't seem to make sense for this report. None of the single date fields line up with this idea. Then using the advanced filtering I'm currently trying to set completion date to null AND opened date to later

Requiring information from a Catalog resource
This request is a long shot, but I figured I would ask: We have set up our New Hire process using a Service Catalog in ServiceDesk. We have had an ongoing problem with the users not filling out the required information for a specified application. The example would be that the user selects Application A, but they don't fill out any of the security-related fields related to Application A. The Help Desk then receives the form, and needs to research what the user needs. We want to disallow the requester

Has anyone successfully managed to integrate ServiceDesk Plus with Dameware to remote control assets? I can successfully run the Dameware script from the command line once in the Dameware directory - dwrcc.exe -c: -m:[Computer Name] -a:1 But when run from within ServiceDesk Plus I get the following error: Cannot run program "dwrcc.exe": CreateProcess error=2, The system cannot find the file specified Windows RDP works fine within SD.

Hopefully someone can shed some light on this issue. Thanks in advance.
Mac OSX client scan always unsuccessful
Hi All, I've been trying to scan mac workstation since I started using SD+, it never worked. Windows clients are scanned properly. 99% of Apple hardware is running pre-ElCapitan OSX version (10.8-10), so it should work. Firewall is disabled and ssh is enabled everywhere. I can connect via ssh to all Macs, so that's not the problem. Can you help us? Thanks indeed Regards
Business rules and automated change/problem requests
It would be nice if we can automate change and problem requests through the business rules. We have several monitoring systems that submit automated tickets for recurring issues and it slows things down and introduces errors having these change/problem requests created manually from these automated tickets. -Ross
