AD Import: some domains not showing
I'm attempting to import users from AD. I see three domains in my dropdown list, and testing on one of them is working fine (can import 1034 users no problems) The problem is I do not see the domain which the servicedesk machine is a member of, and this is the domain I want to import from. Network neighborhood browses to the domain fine. But my dropdown list only shows three domains. Is there anyway I can define this value or force service desk to show all available domains? Any help would be appreciated.

Upgrade problems
We recently upgraded to the latest version of SD+ only for our installation to fail. We haven't been able to get into our system for the past couple of weeks. In desperation we've installed a clean version of SD+ 6 onto our server and planned on importing our data. We've installed everything correcly and the server has started (although hangs when using the program file shortcut - had to do this manually thru the services mmc) but when we try accessing our page nothing is displayed except an IE error

Need help for doing Survey

SD6 has come out good but many things still left out.
Hi, I must say that SD6 has come out good but many things are still left out. We would like the option to add attachments at least in the form of images or files to a purchase order to show the quotations received and the reference to those quotations. Well i know you are working on the same and hope that the update would be released soon. Would be good if you can provide a work around till then. I have asked about this before but looks like, you guys didn't get it right. We have a 5 tech license.
Local time
I would like to see all request related times appears as local independent on server time zone settings.
Reply button
Hi, I would be nice it servicedesk would have a reply button in requester's view of the tickets. Right now the only way a user can add a message to a ticket's conversation is to reply the e-mail. Thanks. Gabriel Gearip
Skip Notification check box on requests
It would be nice to have an option to skip notification when editing a user's request. Sometimes when you're just adding notes or filling in fields the user overlooked there is no reason for the user to be emailed. Thanks Greg
Request List View
Add Sub Category and Item to the Request List view. Right now you are only able to see Category.
adding a task
i understand in the new version you can create a task and assign it to another technician, this is great but the only problem that i see is it would be much better to have the task show up in there request list and not on the tasks page, this means that a technician now has to monitor both places, is there any chance this can be chaged, thanks Ryan
Templates
When you are creating a Template is there any restrictions from the free verison of service desk plus 6 than the one that costs. I have created a couple of templates but all the fields are the same.
Rmote Desktop Access - GPL tool
As you know, a long awaited feature in SD+ would be direct remote desktop access from inside SD+. This could be done enabling a clickable link on requestor's Workstation name, launching a definable application for remote desktop control. Browsing the Web I stumbled upon this very interesting solution based on VNC (widely adopted): http://www.uvnc.com/pchelpware/ I think it's worth investigating, it may add a precious tool to Helpdesk tech people and it could be pretty easy to integrate with SD+.
"View all conversations" problem
Hi everyone, We just applied patch 6009 and so far it's resolved the duplicate email issues and a few other bugs we noticed. Thanks! However I see a different problem now. I don't think it was in place before the patch, but since we don't use this feature a lot I'm not 100% sure if it hasn't been a bug for a while. We have two templates setup. One is to notify the group "IT" when a ticket is added, and the other is to email the requester when the ticket is closed. Closing the ticket shows up as a

SD6 Custom Views

New status & escalations
According to our business process we need three different escalations: 1) Request is creating in status OPEN. First escalation goes when ticket is still unassigned. It IS possible in current version of SD+, we know. 2) IT Coordinator assigns request to technician still in status OPEN. If request is still OPEN (or may be it is ANOTHER status - "TO DO") for a specified time and technician have not changed status to "IN PROGRESS" - another escalation 3) If request is in status "IN PROGRESS" (i.e. -
additional and different fields on templates
We use templates for different requests. We would like to have different fields appear on different templates. As an example. ask 3 questions on a template request but have each template ask different questions that are pertaining to the template type. The template for "network access" template would ask different questions(fields) than the template for a software update requests. The additional fields appear on all requests and can't be eliminated selectivly.
description field contents
Is it possible to "freeze" or lock the contents of the description field in a template so the requester can only add to the field and not remove information. We want to ask questions using the description field and have the requestor answer the questions and not remove the questions. Each template would ask a different set of questions depending on the template.
New Requesters
I noticed that if I type in a new requester in a new request, it will ask me if I wish to add a new requester as part of the process of creating the request. That is fine. But the question dialog response is "OK" or "Cancel". It should be "Yes" and "No". The YES should first take you to the new requester screen to enter all their details, just like any other helpdesk you may have called for the first time, they want to know who you are and enter that info in first. THEN you should be taken to the

Asset & Workstation Import
Hi I have a list of PC/laptop assets in a spreadsheet that i am going to import as a CSV into SD+. I have also had SD+ running an inventory scan for a week or two and now have a (nearly) complete list of all workstations. Is there a way to link assets to workstations in a batch using a unique reference such as computer name (for example)? Otherwise we will have to go through each workstation and assign an asset for each which will be v. time consuming THanks

Custom Queries: Table Names?
I'm using ServiceDesk version 5.5.0 We have contracts in our database by server name. I need to create a report that pulls the contracts by status (expired, will expire in 30 days, etc) and also includes the service tag for the server name (which is also the contract name). I tried to do this, but couldn't because I did not know the name of the table that contains Contract or Workstation information. Could someone give me the appropriate table names for the report I need to create?

Help with MYSQL For Solution Import
I'm trying to import our existing solutions (in another product) into service desk but I'm not sure how some of the ID's get created. For example, I create a solution and it has an ID of 4201 in the Solution, Solution_Keyword, SolutionCreateInfo, SolutionInfo, SolutionRI, and SolutionsAttachment tables. How does it get the 4201? Could I just start at like 20,000 and be ok? Now, the KeywordID, how is this ID generated in the Solution_Keyword table? In my case its 4801. Again, could I just start with

Reopened tickets report
Hi all, We are currently defining performance reports for our service desk and have come upon a report that seems impossible to generate using the reports generator: Number of reopened tickets for a period of time or for a technician.... We know that this information is kept in the history of the ticket but how do you get it out of there and into a report? Maybe we can do some advanced SQL queries, but which are the tables that contain this information and how would this query look like? Many thanks

Custom Fields by template
We are close to purchasing servicedesk. However there is one very important feature lacking that we must have. We must be able to create custom request fields, then apply them to certain templates. For example, I need to create a template for Security Changes that has the a User Name field, and Effective Date field, drop-down boxes for Location, etc. I only need these fields to appear in the Security Changes template. Can servicedesk do this?
