ServiceDesk Plus requests not printing correctly
Hello! There appears to be a problem when selecting Print Preview on a request. Instead of printing the request as a document, it prints the window instead. This means that anything that needs to be scrolled down to view doesn't get printed. I've attached a copy of the document as it would print out so you can see what I mean. This is actually what gets printed, not a screen shot.
Approval Routing
Hello All, I would like to automate the sending of an approval request based on the selection of a particular field, ideally utilizing the script function under Field & Form Rules. In example: When the field "Create AD User" is set to "Yes" I would like an approval request to be automatically sent out to user@abc.com It appears I can accomplish this under Admin>Incident Template>TEMPLATENAME>Field & Form Rules> ... However...I do not know what the script would need to look like in order to accomplish
SDChangeManager – can I deny “delete” privileges?
It appears that when assigning a technician the SDChangeManager role, that the technician has “delete” capabilities for all Changes. Is it possible to remove this “delete” capability? What I want to do is to have a group of 8 approvers, who can approve any Change, so I would love to be able to populate these approvers on the creation of a Change ticket, but I don’t want anyone to be able to delete a Change. Thanks, Jamie

Email fetch does not delete the email
I am having an issue with email fetching. We recently switched to Office365. When the email fetch operation occurs, the email is marked as read but is not deleted, so servicedesk continues to fetch the same email over and over again unless somebody logs into the mailbox and manually deletes the email. Has anybody else had this issue? How do I fix this.

Request Approvals feature requests
Would really like to define and track different types of approvals for requests. For example, for a specific request, I'd like to have a "approval to do the work", an "approval that the technician tested the fix" and an approval that the requestor "approved the fix" An easy way to do this is include the approval email subject in the approvals column list, and also include it in the history data. We need these kinds of approvals tracked for compliance reasons for key systems. Does anything like this

Change logic for date/time setting of changes to prevent excessive warnings
When creating a change the Scheduled Start and Scheduled End time default to the current timestamp when you go into change it. Once the Start time is set to a time in the future (as would be the case with most scheduled changes), when attempting to then set the End time we're met with excessive warnings about how the end time cannot be before the Start time. This is a real annoyance. This warning should not occur until one actually attempts to SET the date/time they intend to set. It should not warn

However, We cannot access "Additional Setup" tab because the integration has not been successfully completed as well as the account on ZOHO Reports has been removed.

Date/time-picker with 60 selectable minutes
Is it really necessary to have each and every minute in the time picker when creating new requests? Seems it just creates a lot of scrolling. Every 5 minutes would be enough I think. I have another issue with the date/time picker as well. The time is positioned below the date, which makes it natural to select the date _before_ the time, but when a date is selected the picker closes and I have to open it up again to set a time. (And if most users don't bother about the time, why have all 60 minutes
