Can end user be sent email and approve it

We are migrating from an in house support application to Sysaid. One of the functions built into that application was the ability for the user to approve a request via email. The incident would be created by an IT associate. They would select an option for "approval required". When they saved the incident, an email would be generated and sent to the user who authorization was required. That email contained a Approve button the user only had to press and the back end request was updated. The user did not have to log onto the application. Is it possible to simulate this function in Sysaid?

Direct link to pre-filled SR template

Howdy. This may be a feature request, but I'm hoping that there is a simple solution. I would like to be able to send customers a URL that will lead to a new service request form pre-filled with a service request template. If I send a link like this: https://my.sysaid.instance/SubmitSR.jsp?quick_name=33889 the correct template is selected in the SR submit form. BUT the other fields are not updated with the template settings. If I then switch the selected template to something else and switch it back to the one I want, then the fields will be pre-filled. Is there a way to send a direct link to a pre-filled template? Thanks, Jeremy.

Email rules and filter matching

Do the filters in email rules perform exact matching against strings? And are they case sensitive? For example, we have a rule with a filter where the body contains "Can't access CSE". But this rule seemed to trigger when an email with the body containing "Can't access my documents" came in. Finally, is there a way to see _which_ Email Rule was fired for a given ticket number?

Email integration working sporadically

Hi, For the past week We've been experiencing an issue where when someone emails helpdesk, Sysaid will pick up the email form the configured mailbox and automatically open a ticket. This is the behavior we expect but for some reason it will randomly stop working and the only way starts working its by rebooting the server. The version of SysAid we are using is 8.5.08 Pro Plus running on Red Hat 4.1

Add a Checklist to Sysaid Request

Hello, Is it possible to add a checklist to a Sysaid Request? We would like to create a template with a checklist of assigned tasks we would need to do per each new ticket created for this template. As someone works on the ticket they would then check off the tasks they have completed. I see a previous topic was requesting something similar and required coding to get it done. However, this is from 2015. Is this still implemented the same way? https://community.sysaid.com/Sysforums/posts/list/12489.page#58228 Regards, Ryan

Automated New Tickets from Closed Ticket

Good afternoon all, I would like to know if there is a way to open a new ticket on a date in the future, based on a closed ticket? The scenario I would like to happen is as follows: New User Ticket is created possibly 8 weeks before the user starts. Ticket is assigned to an agent. Agent creates New User and all required system accounts and closes ticket Sysaid will then create a new ticket a week before the New User is to start to profile their PC/Laptop. Currently if the ticket is opened 8 weeks before the New User this means that we have a ticket sat around for 8 weeks which skews our ticket count and reporting. So being able to create the new user and close the ticket would be ideal, but we then need the automation for Sysaid to create the "profile kit" ticket 1 week before the start date. Any ideas? Thanks in advance

Automated future dated tickets

Hi guys, I am wondering if there is a way in which you can create a new ticket upon the closure of another ticket, but the new ticket that is created is set for a date in the future to actually be created automatically. Scenario A ticket is put in for a New Starter into the business, but that New Starter doesnt start for another 8 weeks. Ticket is assigned to an Engineer who will create all of the accounts on the system. However, now for 8 weeks that Engineer has a ticket sat in his queue until the week before the New Starter starts where he can then profile the PC/Laptop befoer then closing the ticket and sending the New Starter Email. So what I am looking for is the Engineer creates the New User and closes the ticket, this then generates a New Ticket which doesnt "appear" in either his queue or the unassigned queue until the week before the New Starter starts. Thanks guys in advance.

How are you logging time and documenting work performed?

Hello All! We are currently in the process of implementing Sysaid on-Prem v19.2.33 and are working through how we want the incident workflow to go. We require detailed documentation of the work performed by technicians as well as strict auditing of their work, and I am wondering how some folks out there are managing this. It seems intuitive to me that "Activities" would be the best place for logging time and steps taken, but there are a few problems with that: 1. Any carriage returns are removed when the activity gets entered, making this mostly unreadable if the notes entered are more than a few lines. 2. It's possible for an administrator to remove their own activity and have no history of this listed in the History tab, making this completely non-viable from an audit log standpoint. 3. More "quality of life" than the last two, but it's impossible to save the ticket without entering an end time for the activity, meaning they must either write all notes after the work has been p

End User Permission

When an End User fills out the Submit Service request and they click on the Browse button for the cc, they get the message that they don't have permission. I don't see where I can make this change. Thanks.

Admin create service record question

Problem: An admin from Admin Portal uses the new button to create a service record. It automatically assigns the service record to them and does not change when the admin group is changed to a group they are not in. How can I make it change the assign to to none if the admin group is changed? or Make it so the admin can only create new service request for the templates assigned to their group from the new button in the admin portal but be able to create any service records from the self-service portal. Thank you for your help.
