Set authorisation limits on Purchases
Hello, Would it be possible to be able to set technicians up with Purchase order authorisation limits. For example, Approver A has a limit of up to £500, Approver B has a limit of up to £1000, Approver C can approve unlimited amount. We would like to migrate our current PO system to the SD+ but the lack of this feature is preventing us from doing this.
Service description cut off - service catalog
Hi, In SDP, in Service Catalog, if the service name consists of two or more words it's not will be displayed fully for user in the drop down box or service catalog tab. (Please see screen-shots attached) I hope this is something easily fixable. Thanks! Miron
Purchase order - drafts implementation
Hi, Right now in SDP if you start the PO and then navigate to another tab or link in SDP, the PO changes are not saved anywhere making user re-enter the same PO numerous times. I would like to suggest implementing drafts approach in the similar way it works in MS Outlook: 1. Then trying to navigate away from the newly opened PO, the dialog will appear asking if user wishes to save the incomplete PO to drafts (folder?) or discard the changes. If yes, the order will be saved into drafts place with

Problem with SDP to move between two different servers
Dear All, I have two servers with SD Plus, they are running under different site URLs. Today I made backup of MSSQL database of server 1 and restored it into database of server 2. ServiceDesk stopped working there - page is not displaying. Are there any config tables I should change? I found only "WEB_URL" in GlobalConfig table but still SD is not working. When opening SDP in browser, manageengine process on server is stopping. Please help.
SLA to Location - bad Idea...
Hi, In my humble opinion, idea to connect Location to SLA is not so good... Please find below my case: What if we have more than one team in one location, and first team is working 8-16 mon-fr and second 24/7? The only way now is to create 2 locations and assign them different SLA... however... if we need to reassign incidents/problems we need to do a lot more than if they were in one location... moreover we are unable reassign task from one team to other if they are in different locations, or assign
Request won't show up when Request are created by email...
I recently upgrade from build 6002 to build 7010 and some requests won't show up on my Open Request page. As I can see in the header, I should have 28 requests and only 15 of them are visible. I figured out that it was caused by requests created by email including html code. To temporally fix the problem I have to search for those specifics requests, edit the request and Toggle off the HTML Source and now all my requests become visible. I want to know if somebody experiments this issue, maybe it

8006 - Email Replies not appended to request
We recently upgraded from 7611 to 8006 and have noticed that email appends do not seem to function properly anymore. Something as simple as the requester replying to the automated receipt notification is causing SDP to generate a new work order. I just ran another test to give you an example... I sent this email in to our SD instance and it generated WO # 48577: I then received the email notification that my requesthad been received and given ticket number 48577 and I replied to this message,
Service Desk Views
Hi, I am in the process of developing a department site for my group, Information Technology, at my job. We use SharePoint as our intranet platform. I have a page that when a User goes to that page, we would like them to see their open tickets that they requested. We don't want them to have to logon to Manage Engine, it should auto log them on based off of their assigned network id, and simply display that user's open tickets. In SharePoint I've added a web part Page Viewer, all this web part

Error with automatic emailling/notification, after upgrade to Service Desk Plus Version 8007
After upgrading to Version 8007, the automtic emailing system doesnt work. All inbound emails come in as normal, but all automatic notifications have stopped working. If you try and forward or reply to request all you get in the subject field are the fields to be sent not the actual data. ie "[Fwd: ##$RequestId## : $Title]" instead of the proper details. If you then carry on to process the email it does actually send the email, so the SMTP mail is working ok. Any ideas

Helpdesk ticket from Contract reminder
Is there a way to raise a ticket when a contract is due rather than just send an email reminder? A ticket is a perminent reminder until it is completed, an email can be forgotten. I can forward the email to the helpdesk, would be nice if it was an automated procedure though.
Templates for Problems
Hi all, it would be absolutly great if there would be a possibility to you the request templates also for problems. That would help a lot because the interface would look similar and you can sort you fields in the same way as you can in the requests/incidents. For our technicans it would make all clearly arrange for them. And I don't think it would be that much work to integrate it because this feature is also useable for requests and changes. Kind Regards Thomas

Highlight Mandatory Fields on Request Details
When opening a work order, it would be great if fields that are mandatory for closing could be highlighted if missing. The warning that you attempted to close a work order without a mandatory field completed comes up too late and poorly placed in the process, that most techs fail to realize that they haven't closed their request. Thanks, Michael

Upgrading from 7.0 to 8.0
I checked the "About" page and clicked on the "details" link and found that it recommends using the migration sequence if you're below build number 7500. What it not clear is if this applies to 7.0 or 8.0? In other words, I want to make sure I follow the right path for upgrading and I'm currently at 7.0 Build 7018, so do I need to follow the migration sequence process or is that only for 8.0 Build 7500 and above?

When working on a request and selecting Actions | View Requests by Requester, the listing of requests displays. After selecting a prior request, the request details display with notes, but not the resolution. Is there a way to add the resolution to these details? Currently the description displays, but nothing else.

Cannot delete a request with a large amount of conversations
I have a request that I believe is slowing down my system as it has 100+ conversations attached to it. The request continues to gain conversations as they are being attached as returned emails. (technician email changed). I would like to delete this request altogether. I am getting an error that the delete failed. Is there a way to manually delete the request using SQL (MSSQL)? Or, is there a better way that you would recommend deleting the request? Thanks!

Service Catalogue
Hi, We are deploying Service Desk Plus (SDP) and before we have created our Service Catalogue. With Service Catalogue we want to list to all our services, including incidents verification. The problem is, with Service Catalogue when cannot create an “incident form”, he always create the form/request like a service request. So we cannot evolve from an incident to a problem with the Service Catalogue forms. Thanks in advanced, Best Regards, Henrique Alves.

Adding the ability to email assigned users of assets that belong to an asset group
I love having the ability to email all users of a software...a feature that's available in the menu options for a software. I'd like to request the addition of the ability to email all the assigned users of machines in an asset group. For instance, I have a group of all of my Windows 7 laptops. Each laptop has a user assigned. I would like to be able to select the group and email all of the assigned users in order to let them know about patch issues or any other info as needed.
