sd+ agent for the communication between it department to the end users.
i think that is a good idea that the announcements that we write in the sd+ web, appears to the sd+ agent as a popup message (it's look like the outlook email received). this can be a powerful tool to communicate events as a email error o stop a service, to 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

ManageEngine Service Desk Plus! Email Notifications
Hi whoever may be reading, Currently, the email notifications within Service Desk Plus! I feel are not detail enough. Reason being, we are potential customers of ManageEngine and have been evaluating the product for some time. What we need to do, is have email updates/notifications sent out to the end user when certain things are performed within the request, as the end user will not be logging into Service Desk to check their requests progress. Now, I understand that there is currently a feature
How can you set up the service desk to allow the assignment of calls to external 3rd parties
We work with external support parties; how can we set up the service desk to allow calls to be assigned to these external support without haveing to use up a technicians licence. I would also like to be able to send a call close notification to the external support every time our technicians close a call they have been assigned.

Workstation / Server scan failure.
After installing the agent, scan works automatically but after 1st scan, every scan attempt fails and gives this message. "No response received from workstation. Probably the workstation might be switched off or does not exist." I checked the ICMP and port 7 and these were opened and ping was able. None of the workstation / server was able to scan. Even SDP fails at scanning at its own server too. Any suggestions?

Would like some advice on autoassigning manually created requests to certain technician groups
We have created technician groups with specific email addresses so that incoming emails get automatically assigned to that particular group. We have also setup appropriate roles that restrict each group from being able to view tickets in other groups for security’s sake. However, this does not address the issue of tickets that are created manually by the technicians themselves. At this point any new ticket that is manually created by a technician has to have the group designation manually assigned
Backup failed since resizing disk?
Our servicedesk 7.6.0 Build 7611 was working fine until a week ago. I then manually resized the disk it was running on. Had to recreate swap.

Manually change ldap dns ip without logging in to manage engine service desk?
We recently installed 2 new 2008r2 domain controllers in our domain, transferred the fsmo's and removed the old servers from the network.

Configuration transfer from development to production
Hi, We just started to use the Service Desk Plus product and we want to create a development system (where to try and test our configuration) and a production system.

Custom Request Template Not Being Used Properly When Request Is Sent Via Email
When users send Requests via email with correct parameters to use a custom Request template, ServiceDesk Plus ignores all @@ parameters set in the email (except for RequesterEmail) and just uses the default Request template. However, if the user is a Technician, ServiceDesk is able to parse the email correctly and uses the custom Request template. This happens even if the email content is exactly the same (except for Requester and RequesterEmail of course) as used by the non-Technician. Any help
User style field on Service Catalog form
We are using SD+ v8.0.0. I am building a form for Requesters to request access to different resources in our environment. I have all of the resources listed as required and the rest of the form as we need it. I now need to provide a field to the Requester to choose an AD user from the internal "Requester" list. At the moment the only way I can see of doing this is if I use the "Select Approvers" field then put every user as a Service Request approver, which isn't going to be suitable. I have

Broken link from task to request
Anyone else have this? I've followed a task list from an email, and the link next to "Associated to" at the head of the page goes to http://hq-sd-01/tasks/CUDTask.jsp?TASKID=305&MODE=Edit# - which leads precisely nowhere. We've just started using Tasks today, possibly we haven't configured it right?
