Is it possible to create a query report where you search for a specified scanned software (office) and then return computername and last logged on user on the computer?

Possible to amend resolution or completed dates?
Hi, Sometimes we forget to put requests onhold, or carry out the work but forget to update the request - is it possible to go back and amend the completion or resolution dates on requests? I appreciate that only admin users should have this sort of access, but it would be useful to 'correct' mistakes on requests. Thanks, Rich

editing a request clears out the Group assignment.
Not sure if its really an issue, but it is an extreme annoyance. When going back to an existing request and clicking "edit" to modify it the Group assignment clears out. If you reset the group assignment, the team is notified that a request has been added to the group, even though the request was already there. I've tested this in IE7, IE8, FireFox, Chrome, and Safari. Each browser does the same thing, so it seems to be an issue with ServiceDesk or I'm going crazy. Anyone else see anything

OPM Log A Ticket to SDP
Dear all, We have successfully integrated OPM 7205 with SDP 7506. We also created "Log A Ticket" notification profiles inside OPM to generate SDP tickets automatically when servers/services down. We can choose the Category, Priority and Technician during the profile creation and related tickets can be generated successfully into SDP. However, the corresponding "Requests" logged at SDP were "unassigned". All the 3 fields (Category, Priority and Technician) we pre-defined at OPM profile are "unassigned".

This will mean the ticket key is maintained in the database with no holes yet those tickets that have been 'deleted' are no longer visible in reporting or the system. While the need to delete tickets
