CI login details - where/
Just started playing with ServiceDeskPlus and I am wondering what would be best place to keep CI login details? In this case it is Cisco Switch which has only one admin account and it's accessed by me only, but I am afraid I will forget login details.
Change Roles?
I'm trying to figure out how to pre-assign the custom change roles I've created to the change template I setup. I don't see a way to assign these through the template. Am I missing something here? I also don't see a way to assign users to the change roles. I'm really hoping the change module can work for us, but I'm having a really hard time getting this to flow the way I'd suspect it should. Thanks

SDP - all HP printer identified as a generic "HP-printer"?
Hi There, We have several models of HP printers on our network, but whenever we scanned it (SNMP: public), it always identified as HP-Printer . I did changed them to a proper model name (example: HP LaserJet 400 MFP M425dn) but whenever it was scanned again, the model reverts back to HP-Printer . is there a way to prevent this from happening? At the moment I changed the scan credential on each of the asset to a non-existent SNMP name. Thank you for your advice.

Reply to ticket, curser not starting at top of responce.
We just upgraded to 9.0 Build 9042. Now when we reply to a ticket the following happens in each browser. IE11 - The curser starts at the bottom of the email, not the top like it should. Chrome - The curser starts at the beginning to the "to" field. Firefox - The curser starts at the beginning to the "to" field. Has anyone else seen this? We are predominantly an IE 11 site and the people who use the help desk software DO NOT like the fact it now starts the curser at the bottom of the email. Jason

Update Assigned User or asset automatically or via API
I would like to be able to have the assigned user of our assets (e.g. Windows Workstations) updated automatically. My thought was a login script that would call on the API or RestAPI to update the asset assignment to whoever is logging in at the time as our machines are sometimes shared or if a system is redistributed our technicians often do not go update the asset details in the servicedesk. I am having trouble constructing the HTTP Post URL that will update the assigned user for the current machine.

Enable Active Directory Authentication to use multiple DCs?
How can I allow Active Directory Authentication for users accessing ServiceDesk Plus while the one DC that is configured in SD is being rebooted? We have multiple DCs, but I really don't want to manually change SD every time we apply updates to the DCs. SD seems to allow me to only provide ONE domain controller name. Ideas, thoughts greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Pass Through Authentication Issues
We have been testing pass through authentication on our development server. We had it working, but then the server lost its trust with the domain. We used the SetComputerPass.vbs script to set the password, then configured the Pass Through within SD+ and it worked great. The server lost its trust with the domain a few days later. We had to login as local admin and use "netdom resetpwd" on the development server (Windows Server 2008) to re-establish the trust, and now the pass through authentication
Request Link customize
Hi, I tried to find similar link to my problem but wasn't that lucky :) Is there a way I can customize request link inside of the request? For instance, when request is created and technician recives email, there is a request link at bottom, but instead of giving the link I created, it gives link of the server name where software is installed, link http://server/workroder... instead of http://helpdesk/workorder... I don't want technicians or requester to recive emails and to know on which server

SDP - approve request via email?
Hi there, Sometimes someone put in a request that needs approval from others. We normally do it through: in the request view, Actions > Submit for approval send it to the person for approval that person will then click the approval link and login then approve/deny My question is, can that person do the accept/deny the request via email reply? Most of them are always busy/on the move and don't have time to type in the username/password on the mobile phone at any time. Thank you.

Approval Status
All You need to do something about the approval process in the request module. It just makes no sense at all to have rejected requests with an approval status of approved. You can not be setting the approval status based on the first response. Or at the very least allow us to control the value of this field

Asset Last Modified Date / Modified By
Hi, I was wondering if SDP tracks when the details of an asset was last modified and who it was modified by. This would be very useful for auditing purposes. By this I do not mean when the details were last updated due to an asset scan but rather someone updating details of an asset like the Acquisition Date, Cost, Invoice/Order Number, etc. I don't currently see this information displayed anywhere so I fear that it is not being tracked but I am hoping that I am wrong. If it is tracked, please let
