Requester's additional fields not displayed
Requester additional fields are not displayed in Request screen to technician. I have added 2 fields in requester. These fields are not displayed in Requester Detail area of Request screen. In SDP 7 version additional fields were appearing but in SDP 7.5 they are not appearing. Additional fields contain crucial information for technician and we need to display them
Request created through Quick Create - New Request
Request created through Quick Create - New Request does not have category and no technician is assigned. I have assigned technician to each category. When category is not assigned or selected then request is left unassigned. Can we set default technician for request created without category.
assign manager to more than one department
I was told one of the features in 7.5 would be the ability to assign a manager to more than one department but that cannot be. The only choices I see are "View own", "View Department" and "View Site". This does not help at all. We have serveral managers that run up to 3 departments. I need them to be all three of those departments, not the whole site. Is there anyway to get them to see what I want. I couldn't find anything.
A Really Bad Day
There was this guy at a bar, just looking at his drink. He stays like that for half of an hour. Then, this big trouble-making truck driver steps next to him, takes the drink from the guy, and just drinks it all down. The poor man starts crying. The truck driver says, "Come on man, I was just joking. Here, I'll buy you another drink. I just can't stand to see a man cry." "No, it's not that. This day is the worst of my life. First, I fall asleep, and I go late to my office. My boss, outrageous, fires
7502 - Asset module seems slow
This is difficult to confirm but either HF1 or HF2 seems to have made V7.5 very slow in the asset module. I say difficult as I'm running this on a virtual server that is not the spec of the main box, but asset was never as slow as it is now. When only 2 or 3 items in the list then fine, but when lists are long the pages take an age to display. Also had a couple of crashes with the system around the same time, circumstancial I know but everything points to asset being an issue at present. Is anyone

'Request Details' edit function not working
Several of our users are experiencing errors when trying to edit the request details (assigned group, technician, mode, urgency, etc.) of a ticket. I noticed there was a javascript error and have attached the message. One problem is that after clicking 'update' the processing image will appear and the application will hang and not finish. The second problem is that when selecting a new group, the technician form field drop-down does not populate. Anyone else experiencing these issues? Version : 6.0.0
hurs of operations no longer working
Currently we are running build 7018. Prior build was 7015. When we were running 7015 all request tickets were following the business hours of operations. We would not get an unpicked request notification for a request ticket off hours. After installing build 7018 this is no longer true. We are getting email notifications after one hour of ticket generation regardless to the hours of operation settings. ex. our hours of operation are set to be 700 - 1700 M-F if a user submits a request ticket at 9
Cannot see old request information after amending Requestor
Hi, Prior to upgrading to v7.5, we did not use set anything for Site in each Requestor information. We want to update this field for each requestor so as to have another category to allow a Super Requestor to view all requests for a site. After updating and tick for the Super Requestor to allow view all site requests, this user cannot see the old request information any more. How to overcome this ?

One Servicedesk email account for many departments,any ideas
I'd like to have one master email address for servicedesk is configured as the address the mail fetching picks up the mail from in SD+ All the other addresses (per site) are created as aliases all forwarded to the single address. Business rules can then be used to action on the incoming mail based on the "TO:" address as it retains the original address it was sent to. Use the rules to direct the requests to the group you want based on the to: address. THIS DOES *NOT* WORK WITH OUTLOOK 2007 OR HIGHER,

Ability of CAB members to approve change
Hi I would like to use the change control module but we cannot do so with the current version as there is no ability to have CAB members approve the change. From an audit point of view the system must allow the recording (electronic signatures) of the approval by the appropriate system owner(s), currently there is a facility, you only have the ability to email the CAB member who can then leave a note! but this is not satisfactory. The approver can approve any change! - again a serious issue for the

SD+7 - CSV Asset and Component Import ignores location
I've run a few small CSV files through to look at migrating past data into the CMDB element of SD+7. The CSV files are contain location data as text, and during the import process the column with the location is selected. However when you view the imported item the location information appears to have been ignored. Location isn't shown on the asset Resource Details/Resource Info tab, it only appears when you edit the resource. Am I doing something wrong, or is this an omission on the load part and/or
New Service pack make servicedesk less efficient
Since the last upgrades I can not longer apply templates to existing work orders. The only way to use the templates is via the New request Option. We have created template based upon request types and we generally used these templates to quickly complete the required fields for each request type. For example if this request is for a new user account, there is one technician that performs this duty, and when he does there were several task that had to be completed for this type of service request.

I see there are some fields that are automatically set by the system that can be used as a filter (<from_today>,etc.) I would like to have a complete list of those fields other than dates, for istance I would like to have a field like <login_name> in order to show things belonging only to the user who actually is running the report.

Due to some security requirements as well as time constraints, it appears that at this time I will be unable to use AD authentication. I would like to set a default user password for all requesters.

Alias URL
I don't know what im doing wrong.... Im running a SBS2003 with the domain name.local. My ISP forwards all traffic 2 my IP so the site in IIS works fine. When i connect locally to localhost:8085 or servername:8085 Servicedesk is reachable. I made an alias url helpdesk.name.nl:8085 in the selfservice portal en made a DNS setting in servername / forward lookup zone / name.local helpdesk.mytown.local CNAME servername.name.local Can anyone please tell me what im doing wrong? Because it still isnt reachable
SPAM filter rules for CC not working
We have an Exchange public folder which logs all emails to a list address. This list also forwards to our Servicedesk POP account. We do not want messages CC's to this address logged as new calls in Servicedesk. I created a SPAM rule to exclude emails CC'd to the Servicedesk account however it does not appear to work as expected. The truth table is as follows: 1. TO:servicedesk CC:anyaddress Result: FAIL: NOT LOGGED 2. TO:anyaddress CC:servicedesk Result: PASS: NOT LOGGED 3. TO:servicedesk CC: blank

Stop the scheduled asset scan
How do I stop a scheduled asset scan? We have it scheduled to run on Saturday and Sunday @ 2:15am. Monday mornings the help desk will not open and we have to restart the service. Then the asset scan starts up, slowing the help desk down to the point where we can't assign or edit any tickets. I need a way to stop the asset scan. Stopping and starting the service does not kill it. thanks.
