HTTP 500 on Reminders
I have discovered an interesting bug with the new reminders feature. Here is the scenario: One of our non-admin technicians (has View, Add, and Edit permissions for requests, nothing else) creates a reminder. If just the date and time are set without a "remind me before" timer, the reminder is saved properly, and can be modified and even deleted normally. However, if any "Remind me before" timer is selected, the reminder will still be created properly, but any attempts to modify the reminder afterwards
Where has support gone?
Please don't take this the wrong way, but I feel the need to speak up about this. I would like to raise the question of where the AdventNet support staff is keeping themselves these days. I used to see a support representative (usually Karthik, sometimes Ankit or others) check through this forum usually once a day, answering people's questions. Granted, not all questions can be answered in this format, but if that occurred, you would attempt to resolve the issues through direct contact with the individuals.
memory usage while importing AD accounts
During normal operation my system uses about 400 MB of memory. But when I do an active directory import the system memory rises to close to 2 GB and stays there for the entire length of the import. Is this normal?

Custimize the Global View for Admin Home Screen
Is there a way in 6008 to customize the global view for admin accounts. Right now I have Requests by tech, Inbound requests, Contract summary, and Purchase Orders on my global view. I don't need Contract Summary or Purchase Orders since we don't use those items. I would like to add items I do use to my global view. Thanks Chris
Crystal Reports Integration no longer working (SDP 6008)
I haven't had to use Crystal Reports for a while so I have no idea if it was SDP or my setup which has broken it, but currently I get the attached Error Message when creating a report. The ODBC connection on the remote machine is OK (it tests fine) and Crystal Reports can connect and see all the tables fine, but when i select a table to add to the report, I get an the attached message. Any ideas? This is on a remote machine using mysql-connector-odbc-3.51.17-win32, Crystal Reports 11 on Windows Vista

Extra action in Business Rules
Hello, we are testing Service Desk Plus - Enterprise edition BETA.

Example: Define Rule: Sender --------- is -------- xxxxx@xxxxx.com Action Update Subject (Extra Action) Regards Interroll
Template / Boiler plate request replies
Running 6010 I did raise this a while back, but it looks like it didn't make it. We get a lot of very similar email requests which need 1 of 3 or 4 standard replies. That process cannot be automated because the reply depends on the content of an attachment. Rather that messing around doing a copy and paste it would be really nice to have a drop down list of replies that could be used as needed. The Request Template doesn't seem to provide this function, or am I missing something? Thanx bin
ServiceDesk and IE6/7
I recently upgraded the helpdesk system to 6008 from 5501 and ever since, the speed to the helpdesk through IE has degraded while Firefox browsers open it fine. This has been tested on more than one machine and basically what happens is there is a pause between screens. (The window shows the servicedesk graphics, but no data is displayed.) Any ideas?

Notify requester when request is updated/closed
Hi, My issue lies with the notification rules set out in the admin panel. I have a couple of queries, firstly why does the requester receive 2 e-mails whenever a request is closed (One update notification, one closed notification) and is there anyway to stop this? Secondly is there any way to trigger e-mails when certain criteria is filled, i.e when a custom field is edited for a request then an e-mail is sent out, but not if another field is updated. Oh and by the way, good job on the product. These
