Auto assign group ticket to tech in sequential order
Is there a way, when a tickets are assigned to a group (ex. network) the ticket is auto assigned to the next technician in line? For example assuming 3 techs in the group: Ticket 1 assigned to network group - auto assigned to tech 1 Ticket 2 assigned to network group - auto assigned to tech 2 Ticket 3 assigned to network group - auto assigned to tech 3 Ticket 4 assigned to network group - auto assigned to tech 1 Ticket 5 assigned to network group - auto assigned to tech 2 Ticket 6 assigned to network

How do I set a rule to auto assign a call to a user based on a sender of an email to Help Desk
Have SQL Mail sending nightly emails to our service desk email account so a call can be generated. How can I get the call auto assigned to me in rather than coming in unassigned? I recall something like this was possible in a previous version, but wondering if it is possible now?

Worklog improvements
Just an idea for the worklog function... Would it be possible to have a button that starts a worklog and a timer on it? The technician clicks "I'm working on this" (or whatever) and the timer starts, (the job changes status to "In Progress"?) and a new worklog is created with the start time. On finishing, the technician clicks "I've finished" and gets asked for what work they did. The worklog is then finalised, with the start time, the elapsed time and the finished time.

I would like to see the ability set permissions around request templates, and allow requestors to select a template when making a request.
Unable to view other users scheduled report
Hi All, I've recently noticed that we are unable to see eachothers scheduled reports. We have a scenario where a user is leaving the company soon, and the technician who created the scheduled report is away so we couldnt tell where the scheduled report was comming from (whether the tech created a server side script outside of servicedesk+, created in another area, etc) All our technicians are SDAdmins. Is there a setting somewhere we've missed or is this normal? Cheers
Patch Scanning on SBS2007

tasks: assigned group information lost when editing tasks created by a template?
Hello our version: SD+ 7611 We have request templates with defined task. In the template, the tasks are already assigned to a group, but not to a technician. When (in order to assign the task to a technicien or editing details of the task) opening one of those tasks, created by a template, the group assignment is lost. It is as if the group never had been assigned and the assignment has do be done again. After some debugging, it seems that this behaviour is only for tasks created by a template. Any
Add ability to save import scripts/mapping in SDP Asset Module
It would be GREAT to be able to save mappings used to import assets. We regularly add to our inventory and re-mapping for each data load is tiresome!
Database documentation
We have several of our customers using ServiceDesk Plus. We have received the request several times for documentation regarding the database structure and entities. We have managed to analyze the database using 3rd party tools but there are hundreds of tables in the database. It's a monumental task to investigate each table to find out what it's for and whether or not it's important for reports etc. Why don't you publish a document that would help us create reports and export information from SDP?
Request Closed -notifications
Hi, When a new Request is created (by Technician) in the web-interface with Status as Closed, SD sends a Notification message to the Requester. This happens even if "Acknowledge Requester by Email when the request is closed" is not selected in the "Helpdesk - Notification Rules". Any fix comming to this? /lakend

Outgoing SMTP in Service Desk
We are changing our mail server to Exchange 2007 and I'm having a terrible time getting ServiceDesk to send notifications through it. I set up POP access to SD can get emails from Exchange. No problem. But when I try to set up SMTP to send, I just get "Send Notification Failed" errors. One question: when you send a notification in from an SD web page, what IP address does it come from, the client's or the server's? The reason I ask is that there is already an SMTP connector set up for this server
Is there any way of removing default fields from the Requester template without removing them from the Technician's?
If I add certain fields to the Technician side of a template, I cannot remove them from the Requester template. Specifically, it's the Priority field - I don't want requesters changing the priority, they'll just mark everything as URGENT/CRITICAL/DO IT NOW!!! even if it's really trivial. :)
requester/site detailed info
Hello, I'm using SD 7.6.0 (with last updates).

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

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

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
