Send Notifications based on Priority
I know that it is possible to send email notifications to support reps when new tickets are created. But, I would only like to have notification alerts sent out based on the ticket priority level. If, for example, a Severity 1 ticket is created, than an email or SMS would be sent. A Severity 2 ticket would not trigger the email alert. Is this currently possible?
Asset Import including Resource/Asset State
Hi Is it possible to import assets with asset state included. We are migrating from 3 old Servicedesks into 1 so need to migrate all assets, even disposed and in store but there does not seem to be a way to import this without manually taking additional steps. Regards Mike
GMT Time
Hello, Since upgrading to 7606 my time stamp is an hour out. The time on the windows server is correct, and the time in the top right of the SDP screen is correct, but when adding requests, notes or logs to requests - the time is an hour earlier than the actual time. I have tried adjusting this via the 'Personalize' button, and set the time to 2hrs ahead, and the time stamps are correct for 2hrs ahead, so at the moment its stamping for GMT and not BST even though it says it is.

Service Desk Plus Notification
Hi, I m not able to get any notification whenever new complain issue is logged,assigned or close.
Task assigned to a group
I've encountered an issue where if a Task is assigned to a Group but not to a Technician, that the entire group receives the notification. Unfortunately to each of the Technicians, it appears that the task was assigned exclusively to them even though it wasn't assigned to any of them. Aside from modifying the Task Notification Template to put a warning there, is there some way that SDP can make it clear that a Task was assigned to a group and not a Technician? Thanks.
Unable to effectively monitor technician handling of requests on a day by day basis
As a manager supervising technicans dealing with service desk requests, I find that using SDP, I'm unable to monitor technician's workload and progress regarding requests on a day to day basis, or at intervals throughout the day. The 'Home' tab offers limited visibility regarding current technician workload, and the Request Summary graph is only good for highlighting incoming requests because of the 'close resolved requests after 5 days' rule. Because of the automatic closure rule, I can't tell whether

Service Desk Plus Slowdowns
Hi Guys We are running servicedesk plus 7.6 latest hotfix. Quite often the whole application will slow down where it runs really slowly for a min, then picks back up to normal speed. We are running Windows Server 2008 R2 64bit with Microsoft SQL 2008 R2 on a Hyper V server. We have moved the application onto a more powerful Hyper V server and have seen no improvement. Please note this is with 1 user only trying to configure and test the program before we roll it out to production. Do
Pass-through still prompts for username/password
I am testing out ServiceDesk Plus and have it installed on a domain controller running Server 2008 R2. I was able to set up AD pass-through with no issues, the computer account was properly created. Yet when I try to log in I am still prompted for a username and password. I have tried on multiple OS's and internet browsers, but I get the same results. Has anyone else experienced this issue? Is there a solution?

Self-Service Portal Settings
Under Self-Service Portal Settings I see the option "Do you want to allow requesters to close their own resolved requests?". We have that set to YES. How do the users actually close their own requests? Also under Self-Service Portal Settings I have "when the requester replies to the closed requests. Perform the following:" Set to Reopen the same request with 1 day from closed time. Else, create as a new request. The 1 day time limit is not being honored. Just today I had someone reply to a
More control over email spam rules
On the email settings - spam tab. I would like to create rules such as: To contains abc@abc.com or abc1@abc.com OR CC contains abc@abc.com or abc1@abc.com AND Subject contains "don't create a new ticket" Currently I don't see that you can have seperate OR parameters and AND parameters. It's one or the other all ORs or all ANDs but that doesn't give you very much control. This would help us avoid tickets being created when they shouldn't be. Thanks darrenw80
How to delete a group that is "in use by other module"
We've done some reorganization within our department. As a result, we've eliminated the need for one of our "Groups" in SD+. I've moved every request (all statuses, even closed) to other groups. However, SD+ will not let me delete the group from the Admin > Groups page. Below is the resoponse... "Groups cannot be deleted as it is being used by other module." Can anyone explain what I need to do to remove this group? I'm also curious why there isn't an option to just mark the group inactive...

Seperation of admin privileges
Good morning, I have searched for a topic similar but did not find anything that was helpful. My question is this. Is there a way of separating Administrator Privileges and having the technician gain access to the admin panel for certain items without giving full SDAdmin Role. If not, will this ever be a consideration?
RPC Connection Errors
I keep getting rpc connections errors when trying to scan workstations. I pulled the extract below from the serverout0.txt log file. I have verified that the firewall is opened up for RemoteAdmin (GPEDIT.msc and the netsh command). I can also run NET Use commands to the C$ and Admin$ shares with the userid and pw. Dcom is also setup properly. And I have rebooted. This is getting really irritating as there does not appear to be any reason for it to not work. I have run into this with every new workstation

Add Additional Fields to Resolution Tab
We have several fields that are required when closing a ticket. Is there a way that SDP can find all these fields so when we go the the Resolution Tab so that we can just fill in all the fields in one shot rather than getting the error message and having to edit the ticket then closing it.

Database fields and Application fields should match in SDP asset application
I've noticed that the field names associated with assets in many cases do not match between the application screens, export screens, import screens and database. (For example, is it an "Asset Name" or a "Resource Name"?) I would like to see continuity throughout the application and database. Anyone else?
Omitting custom fields from the Bulk Edit Requests box.
When changing the details of multiple requests, you also get all the custom fields that are set up for requests. This is the page - BulkEditRequest.do Is it possible to mark custom fields so they are not included in this screen? (In database terms it should be pretty easy - add a field to the Custom Field to omit this field from display, and a change to the Multiple Changes page query for which fields it displays, but what do I know? :) ) We plan on using templates with lots of custom fields (lots
