dbo.WorkOrder [CREATEDBYID]
Hi, I forgot to mention that I also need a way to convert the integer found in [CREATEDBYID] into the associated user name. You guys have given me the following SQL Statement to convert the dates: SELECT [WORKORDERID] , [CREATEDBYID] , dateadd(s,CREATEDTIME/1000,'01-01-1970') , dateadd(s,DUEBYTIME/1000,'01-01-1970') , dateadd(s,COMPLETEDTIME/1000,'01-01-1970') , [TITLE] FROM [WorkOrder] WHERE [REQUESTERID] = 606 AND [COMPLETEDTIME] = 0 This works perfectly for the date conversion, but like I said
Version 7 Scanning
Im having a few problems with printer scanning. Mainly none of our Canon IR devices are being populated with device details despite being configured with public as the community string. Also more a feature request, but could we have a scanned IP address field for printers, because if i want to give a meaningful name to a printer then i have to overtype the Product Name field, which in a lot of cases contains the IP address. It would also be nice to be able to click the ip address, and automatically

Scanning new Assets (PCs)
I only seem to be able to scan one device at a time. Is there any way of scanning a range (perhaps an IP subnet) of devices ?
PO creation user problems
Is there any way that I can create a user that has the permission to be able to add in a new item when they create a purchase order? The only way I can do this is to make them an admin which I don't want to do. When I log in as the user and create a new PO I can select the vendor from the drop down but on the next screen I can only choose from existing items. When I am logged in as admin there is an extra button that lets me create a new item. Any help much appreciated.

Keep custom workstation field info after changing name
We have three custom fields (additional info) under the workstation that we keep an asset number we assign to new machine generated from another program. We also store the PO number and purchase date. However when the workstation name changes the info in this fields is lost. Is there any way we can keep the info in these fields irrespective of the workstation name. We regularly change workstation names on upgrades and for specific jobs.

Changed domains, Local password not working HELP!
Hi, Our main server went down a few days ago. We have everything back up and running but it seems that when SD+ was installed, it pointed to the main server which is the one that died. The local authentication method is not working because we may have the wrong password for it. Is there a way to change the main domain somewhere in SD+ without actually opening the program? Like a config file? Is there a default password that can get us in. THANKS! Hoppy
Business Rules on existing Requests
Business rules are great to automatically assign an incoming request to a technician or a group (as we do). But I have a bunch of existing requests that where there before all business rules where implemented that I'll have to assign by hand. Is there a way to apply business rules on existing requests, not only on the new ones? Stephan :mrgreen:

Approval process
Our new auditors are now laying down some stricter rules in regards to approving user access to various software and systems. So, we are starting to use the "Submit for Approval" action for this. However, we really need the following enhancements to be added: [list=1:47c983a943] * Only the person who the approval request was sent to should be able to approve a request, or at most, an administrator-level technician. Non-admin technicians should not be able to approve a request, as this defeats the

Update Release Frustration
Dear Adventnet, I'm sure that this has been mentioned before and think that I speak for many people who have version 6 and are wanting to upgrade to version 7 however there is still no upgrade path. Not even a beta. How can you release a new version on the 9th August and we are now at the 18th September and still nothing but "It will be here soon". We are loyal and paying customers why is this taking so long for this upgrade to happen? I understand that the new version may have had some bugs and

Requesters name messed up
I held back on 6008 up until yesterday, then, I guess I was bored, I upgraded to 6012.
