Patch 7609 - Fixes contained?
The release notes for 7609 seem a little sparse for fixes this time. I was told that SD-29060 - system hanging/not collecting emails was to be fixed in this release and doesn't seem to mentioned. Are the release notes light at present to be filled out when the official annoucement appears here ( found by checking ABOUT in SDP and then going to manageengine site ) or is there another service pack due very soon to fix the very pressing issues! Thanks, Andy

SMTP Settings - Not Sending Email
After a bit of troubleshooting, I was finally able to get the incoming email settings correctly configured for ServideDesk, but I've failed to get the outgoing mail settings correctly and SDP isn't sending out replies or notifications. I'm running Windows Small Business Server 2008 with Exchange Server 2007. I've tried everything I can think of - including altering the mail server name, using authentication, etc, and nothing I've tired seems to work. I've checked the Firewall, but I don't see anything
Adding New Product in Purchase Order Fails to Load
I opened a new PO to order some new software. I click on the little button next to the Product's drop down which is supposed to pop up a window to add a new software. However, instead, I get the "Loading Please Wait" dialogue that never compeltes (see fail1.jpg). The other add buttons seem to work properly (add vendor, add shipping address, add billing address). It also doesn't matter what vendor I have selected. I even tried creating a brand new vendor (Test Vendor 1) and was still unable to
Tasks
When a task is assigned to a group only, and no technician is selected, where do these Tasks appear? On the "My Tasks" panel of every user, only the managers, administartor?
Request information of merged Request stay in database?
Today I struggled a little bit with deleting Sub-Categories. Of course I figured it out, and I was also able to mass-edit all Request who had the "old" Sub-Category asssigned. However, ServiceDesk then still said, that the Sub-Category I wanted to delete is still used by "another module". I switched then into the Database (MSSQL) and searched the WorkOrderStats for the affected Sub-Category ID. It turned out, that we had some tickets that obviously had assigned thit Sub-Category some time ago,
Date selection popups: it should be possible to specify Monday as first day of the week
I'd like to see an option in the Admin-Panel, where I can define "Monday" to be the first day of a week for in Date selection popups. It happens quite often, that out of behaviour, our technicians open a Date selection popup select the first row - thinking of that it's Monday. But as of now, the first row is Sunday.

Import access database
I am currently running this helpdesk module http://www.liberum.org/ I would like to import my current access database to Manage Engine ServiceDesk Plus. Can you provide some steps to do it? thanks
Field "Department" in Technician details too short
I realized that the dropdown menu "Department" in Technician Details is way too short, in order to read the full Department name and also the Site that department is attached to. Is there a short term fix I could apply myself (increasing the menu-size on the HTML page?). Because this makes it really unhandy to assign department to Technicians. The field should be at least as large as when you view the details of a Requester - there the size of the dropdown is quite OK. Thanks, Oliver
Embedding the Self Service Portal?
Hello, Is there a way to embed the Self Service Portal? For example, on our Intranet, we'd like to have a link to access the Self Service Portal, but when user's click on it, we would like the Self Service Portal to show in the right content pane, in other words the Top header and Left hand pane of the main Intranet site would stay the static showing our Intranet site resources and links, and the content would be the Self Service Portal? Make sense? I added an image of what I'm referring to.

Domain Scan with VLAN
Hi, I've a VLAN network in my domain. I've installed the SD+ into VLAN 1 and all the PCs are in VLAN 2. The domain scan is unable to scan machines in the different VLAN. When I move the PC to the same VLAN as the SD+ machine, it manages to scan successfully, meaning the I got the PC settings right. What ports do I need to open to allow scanning across VLAN? This is the error message I receive when I perform the scan, "No response received from workstation. Probably the workstation might be switched
Asset Scans - Last Successful Scan
I would like to recommend adding Last Successful Scan info along with the last scanned info for a given computer. Currently it tells me 'Last scanned Jul 17, 2010 12:15PM Scan Status: FAILED' Ok, but when was the last SUCCESSFUL Scan? 2 years ago? 1 day ago? I would like to see as follows: Last scanned Jul 17, 2010 12:15PM Scan Status: FAILED [Scan Now] Error: Either no response received from workstation. Probably the workstation might be switched off or does not exist. [Troubleshoot] Last
Auto Logon Feature Doesn't Work
Hello, When we have users access Manage Engine, the system isn't logging them on automatically based off of their stored credentials. It used to do this versions prior, but since we've been on this latest version, it doesn't work anymore. We always have to type in username and password. Any advice? Our version is Your Version : 7.6.0 Build 7605
Separated groups of categories of solutions
Is it possible in the future to indicate if a solution-category is visible for the requester or not, just like notes. Example : All technician's use diagnostic programs, monitoring programs, etc. So it is not advisable that all those categories are available for requesters to have in their tree (because the solutions-category list will be very long) Thanks for your advise
Searchable Notes in SDP
We would like notes to be searchable. There is much valuable information that our technicians provide via notes and we need to quickly be able to locate certain requests. Please let us know if it is on your roadmap. Thank you.

Asset Import Scripts (Saved mappings) Where are they?
I am curious if anyone else would like the ability to save/retain the mappings used when importing data... We regularly add new assets to our inventory and retire others, usually in "batches", which can be as few as ten or twenty or as many as a thousand or more assets. The ability to save the mappings (as scripts?) would greatly expedite the process since (in our case) virtually every data load/update makes use of the same (for a given type of asset) data format. In addition to expediting the
Custom View Errors...
I have been having this problem when ever I attempt to create a custom view (regardless of private or public) where it keeps adding the completed time constraints that I don't want. So for example, I created this view to look at all requests for a specific technician or unassigned that are not closed or resolved. When I look at the view, it keeps adding the additional time constraints that I did not ask it to do.
Need a detailed software report
I am trying to get a software report that provides me the following information. 1. Software title (I actually only need this report for one particular peice of software) 2. Software version (there are several version installed on our network) 3. Workstation software is installed (just the asset name) 4. Requester/technician workstation is assigned to 5. A distinct count of installations. (meaning if I as a tech had 4 computers and this peice of software is installed in each computer, I want it to
Access to groups when logging a ticket
Hi Would it be possible to allow only business users from certain AD groups to have access to log ITSD requests to specific service desk groups? I.e. the group only appears in the drop down if you belong to a certain AD group? Thanks Brent
resolved time in request report
I want to a requests report with resolved date. How can I do tihis? there is no this choice in the custom report.
Response timing calculation
I was assuming: created date = time Customer logs a request; responded date = time when the ticket was first updated by Service Desk. I noticed my "Created date" and "Responded date" are of equal values. How can i calculate response timings?? Appreciate the help in advance
using assets/inventory to complete requests
I may be missing something, but how can an Inventory/Asset management system be built and then utilized to complete requests? i.e., having a bin of parts with 'x' qty, then completing a request where 'x' part was used, and then that bin is depleted by the qty used? SDP 6012, mysql, windows platform.

Marge from http address
We've recently noticed that two requests can be merged from the web browser's address field. I don't know if this is a feature or a bug, but can be very dangerous if You view many requests just by changing the request id in the address line. If You want to marge two regests You simply put in the address line https://servicedeskplus.com/WorkOrder.do?woMode=viewWO&woID=13424&15325 It merges reguests 13424 and 15325. If this way of merging was not intended, could You please deactivate it. It can potencially
Import from AD - when was last?
Where in DB I can see when was last import from AD (doesn't matter manually or schedule)? When I manually do import - it didn't end. It give me to choose OU to import but when I push start import - it going and going and 0 entries import.
Notes Addition - email group instead of single technician.
We do group only assignments from the Help Desk to our desk side guys. If we update a ticket (example: update the priority) an email is not generated to let them know. We use the add a note and check the notify tech button in this instance but does no good if nobody has taken ownership yet. Any way to get this notify the tech button to email everyone in the group if nobody is assigned to the ticket? or Get SDP to notify if a priority or something is changed?
Customize IE Browser Logo
At one point I had this figured out but with the most recent build, 7604, I can't get this to work. I'm trying to change the SD logo that appears in the tabs in IE to my own custom department logo. I have one made and it used to work but now it doesn't. What do I need to change so that I can customize the tab logo that appears in IE?
Assign Product Cost to Assets
Hi there, we have purchased 40 PCs ("P2550") and ran the network and domain scan in ServiceDeskPlus Professional. Then, we created a vendor and product and linked the product "P2550" with this vendor. The PCs cost 310€ each. Now, we have added this cost to the product, but it is not linked with the assets themselves. Is there any way to link the product cost with the purchase cost field of the assets? Regards, Haziel

Identify Multi-Core CPU Processor
Hi SDP Team, I would like to propose to have the multi-core CPU processor display in the SDP asset, so we can easily identify the core processor such as "Single" (1), "Dual" (2), "Quad" (4), "Hexa" (6), "Octo" (8), etc. Best regards, Raymond Tan
