admin account doesn't have admin permissions
I'm not sure what I have done but somehow our technician accounts no longer have admin rights. I can log into them but I'm unable to change the permission levels for them. I thought I would be able to log in as a Local Adminisrator and do this but the Local Administrator account is the same. Is there a SQL query I can run to change the admin rights for the technicians?

multiple departments/cost centers per user?
Hello We are creating time-spent reports per department on a monthly basis. We have some users working for 2 cost centers (2 x 0.5 FTE). Today, the requester is associated to one department only, which falsifies the time-spent reports per department . How could I map this into SDP? - define the requester twice (one per department) ? - assign 2 departments per requester? This would entail a new feature What do you think Thanks for any comment. regards, Marc

Master tickets with the ability to close child tickets.
I know this has been asked for before (since 2009) but I haven't seen this ability surface to the extent that is being requested as of yet - unless I'm missing something form my configuration. My team has been using MESD now for about a year or two. With that, there are numerous occasions where what starts off as a singular occurrence will become something that evolves to affect multiple users. For this reason - and for trending, tracking, and analysis reasons - having the system be able to use a

Report of Printers
Hi, at first i would like to say that this is a easy-manageable Report creator, but the query-reports are a little bit more tricky. I tried to figure it out by my self, but i'm on a point where i need help. I want to make a report from all the printers which starts with 'BGPRT', listing following colums: - Hostname - IP - Product Name - User - Location - Vendor - Acquisitation Date and all should be grouped twice, by Site and then by Department. It's even possible to make such a complex query?? Thanks
CMDB examples
I'm trying to play with CMDB to create our network. Does anyone have any screenshots of ones you have made so I can see how you set them up, setup the relationships, etc.? I don't know if I'm over-complicating it, or if I'm doing it incorrectly. Do I start out with a Business Service first, or IT Service? What's the difference between the two? I appreciate any feedback. Thanks!
Requests view (my view)
Upgraded to SDP 8101 yesterday. Prior to 8101 we were using 802x. With 802x I had a custom view that would refresh every 15 minutes. With the new version of SDP it fails to remember refresh interval by default or my custom view unless it was the last view I had picked prior to closing down the browser. I have to manually set refresh and view unless it was my last view I choose every time I log into SDP. Example of a way my custom view doesn't stick: click on Dashboard, look at another technicians

Two different Servicedesk's in One...
Hi All, I have been informed by a consultant that this is possible however I have not been able to work this out. We currently have an IT Servicedesk and a Business Support Servicedesk each have their own email address to log faults. We want to merge the two into one instance of Servicedesk Plus, but still retain the separation between them both. I can see that in the Admin section we can only associate one email address and therefore I don't know how to create the separation. I don't want the IT
