AD import only shows Builtin OU
Hi, We have tested SD+ for some time and purchased licenses for the standard version to start using it in a production environment. During the tests I was able to import our users from Active Directory so they show as requesters in SD+. When I tried to do a manual import today all I see is the Builtin OU (first OU in the list for our domain). All other OUs are not visible. I tried with several usernames and passwords but all show just the same Builtin OU and nothing else. This worked fine but suddenly

how to see the user/login name who assign
I need to know the login name of the person who assigned a solicitation to a technician. On the Notification Rules at the Alert Technician by Email when a request is assigned you can not add the login name field because it is not listed on the subject variables nor the content variables. I tried adding on the subject the field $LoginName but it doesnt work. Is there a way to do this? This is because as the technician can change the request and the assigned technician; is very important to know who

Assistances for first time user of Service Desk Plus.
I need to know a few things, if you guys can help me out. First time using ServiceDesk so I'm flying blind pretty much. 1. Scheduled Scan - is that a Network Scan or a Domain Scan? 2. What's the difference between Unassigned Workstations and All assets In Store? Our numbers don't match up (one is 124, the other is 99) 3. Is there any way I can modify the Default Template, because when I try to edit the Requestor sides of things, the area to add new fields is greyed out and I can't understand why

Requester email not updating on AD sync
We sync in our users once a day. A few days ago we changed everyone's primary email in AD from name@domain.com to name@domain1.com.

Language Problems.
Hi, We have reported this issue long time ago. What happen is that the “Display Language” setting in “Personalize” doesn’t really work! If we change to Portuguese “some” items change to (very bad) Portuguese and others remains the same. For example in “Resource State List” I have to change resource states to Portuguese language. If I change just “Choose Language” the items remain the same and I can’t even delete default values. Values for Resource State will always appear in English. Regards, Henrique
sd+ agent for the communication between it department to the end users.

Assigned Technician does not get notification email when assigned during request creation
It is a bit strange of a behavior, but when a technician creates a ticket, they can assign to another tech at the same time they create the ticket. But the notification email is not sent. The general new ticket email is, and if you go back into the ticket and assign it, it does send the notification email to the assigned tech. Any ideas, we would like other techs to be able to assign tickets to each other when it is not their area or responsibility.

Notify Technician When Request is Reassigned
I've looked through all the Notification Rules and don't see an option to Notify a Technician when a Request has been reassigned to another technician. Sometimes, requests are accidentally assigned to the wrong technician, or a technician is out of the office and the request must be assigned to a different technician. For example, Technician JOHN SMITH is on vacation. A request is assigned to JOHN SMITH. Upon realizing JOHN SMITH is not available, the request is re-assigned to JANE DOE. Both JOHN
