Replies
Hi, When user replies to an open request, SDP auto-inserts the text of the original request into the reply Description field. This is making user replies confusing as some will reply above the text and some will reply below it. The below is an example of what auto-populates the user's Description field when they click the "Reply" button... "Category : Training Description : Hi Maria, This is a test to resolve a user problem we're having. It's not you, I just need to "borrow" your account to
Category Search Function
Hi there, We have had a requests from our technicians if its possible to get a search like function for the category, subcategory and item. This is due to our ME SDP configuration having a lot of categories etc. Tt would save a lot of time in the technicians mind where they can use the "item" field much like a search option that the "Requester Name" uses, with the addition of something like e.g. *ItemName*>>*Subcategory*>>*Category* displaying as a drop down menu. Look forward to your reply, Willus

Creating new requesters
Hi, Just wondering - when we receive an email from an email address that is not associated with a requester, it creates a new requester automatically (even if there is an Undeliverable response). Is it possible that we can still accept emails (and create new requests) from addresses not associated with requesters, but not create a new requester each time? Thanks, Daniel Comley

Impact of deleting requesters in manage engine
Gday All, We have been running SDP for 4 or so years and during this time there has been various domain migrations. We now have one production domain, we used to have 4 or 5. The net effect of this is that we have a lot of old records in 'requesters', which I want to delete. Out of approx. 9000 requestors, 2500 are current and valid, the rest are old rubbish records from previous domains. In the requesters sections I see that I can filter by domain, so it is not that hard for me to identify
PO has been approved
When using multi-step approval you get the option to have Person 1 OR Person 2 approve the PO. This is a great feature however I think there is a part missing. If Person 1 approves the PO there is no notification to Person 2 informing them that the PO was approved. Can this be added in that all approvers are informed when the PO has been approved?

Ticket Subscribe/Watch (Notify) Option
We currently have our notifications set to update the support group when a request is added to their group, and have disabled the notification to the group when a ticket is updated because the update notifications became far too overwhelming being as we can't specify what type of update to send the notification for. Our request is to enable technicians to be able to subscribe to a certain support group or specific ticket so they will receive the update notifications. For example most tickets that

Very slow when editing announcements
We're using SDP 9115 on Windows 2008 R2 and MySQL. When editing an announcement, it takes a good 30 seconds for the edit page to appear. When clicking on an announcement from the Home page, the announcement window popups up just fine. But, when you click the Edit button, it takes at least 30 seconds for the edit form/page to display. The change gets saved just fine, and saving it is quick. It's just very slow when initially editing it. Is anyone having this problem or anyone able to reproduce it?

Grouping Of Business Rules
It will be very helpful if we can have a feature to group a set of business rules created for the following benfits. creating the business rules one by one will flood the system and will be hard to manage and troubleshoot if conflict occurs. 1.

Group the business rules for auto assigning of category/sub-category and item

Convert task to a ticket
Hi, Often we find that the task with all the comments and requirement of subtask grows to big to be just a task and now warrants it's own ticket. We would like the ability to do that and use dependency feature between the original ticket and the new ticket (task converted to a ticket) automatically instead of creating a new one and trying to manually paste all details out of the task into a new ticket.

I want to populate the Requester field - Site - based on the value of another field.
I am new to ServiceDeskPlus and am running into this issue. In my AD import, I don't have a field that would correspond to "Site", so I want to bring over the Location Code field from AD such as "AGH-1W". Then I want to say if Location Code is "AGH-1W", populate "Corporate" in the Site field for the Requester. Is this possible? If not, has anyone found a workaround for this? Thanks, Eileen

REST API: assets
How can I get all the assets from a specific type AND which has the 'Asset State' 'In Store'. What is the unique and constant value for an asset. The asset name can be changed, thus how can I use the API with the ID of the asset, in order to be sure I am working with that correct asset even if the name changes. Example.

Attach an email to a ticket...
Is there a way a user can attach an email to a ticket? Some times we get spam emails and in order for the datacenter to look at the header of the email they need it to be sent as an attachment..

AD Requester Import Issue
Hello, Got a bit of a strange one, I'm dong a completely new build of Manage Engine on new servers and I'm currently working on the AD Import. The OU in AD had 18 records in it, all active. The AD Import only selected this one OU, and stated that it has successfully imported 18 records. However when I looked at the refreshed Requester list it had 22. The extra 4 records imported were for disabled accounts that were in an Ex -Employee OU. Initially I couldn't work out why they had been imported,
Missing Change Details
Hello, I've recently noticed that a few of our closed changes are missing the majority of their details, other than the details in the 'Submission' tab. It's not that the fields are empty, there is simply only white space. I've noticed no pattern in which changes are affected. An image of one of the blank tabs is attached. I can't be 100%, but I think this has been a problem since we migrated the application onto a new server, and the MS SQL database into a new MS SQL database a few weeks ago. Any
