Bulk editing Helpdesk Service Requests

I’m unsure where this post needs to go so Im posting it here. Is there any way to bulk edit helpdesk service requests. The only bulk option I can see on the top menu is to change the status field of requests. I need to be able to change the date & also categories of a load of requests at once rather than going through 300 individual requests. I'm running v6.0.09

Windows 7 - Where do you stand?

We at SysAid haven’t been the only ones busy preparing for a major release – on October 22, Microsoft released the latest version of Windows, Windows 7. Bill Gates promised Newsweek that Windows 7 will be more “user-centric” and will focus on “performance improvements.” Many SysAiders, especially those disappointed with Vista’s performance, aren’t so sure. SysAid Community discussion threads are full with concerns about this next version of Microsoft. Rene Rijk: “We’ll stick to XP as long as possible. Vista is bad and Windows 7 is way too early to implement.” Defector: “Microsoft has listed Windows 7 as a minor release. Makes me think they brought out a poorly functioning product, applied tons of patches, and TA-DA! We have Windows 7.” Lev: “Vista didn’t prove itself and there is no reason to upgrade.” Other SysAiders take a more enthusiastic approach towards Windows 7 and have even enlisted as Windows Beta testers. Dallen.heath: “I believe that a jump from Vista to 7 is g

We’re kicking off a new Workshop Series, so don’t say you didn’t know :)

Hi SysAiders, We decided to call this new WorkShop Series “I didn’t know I can do that!” because this is what we hear all the time from so many of you guys. Seriously. That’s going to change. Because not only are we going to run these workshops with you – and our best SysAid trainers – but we’ve also opened a new Forum, where we can discuss issues and help each other. First workshop is for the new SysAid’s Worksafe app, the free add-on that simplifies daily self-reporting of health statuses and location, while automatically alerting management to potential exposure at work. It’s a must-have in our COVID-19 world. Come get hands-on training for using Worksafe app, at our August 25th workshop. See you there! Dena P.S. Check out the whole series here: https://www.sysaid.com/workshop-series-2020

Something special for you to celebrate today!

Hi SysAiders, Happy SysAdmin Appreciation Day!! I hope your colleagues remember what today is and send you kind greetings and gifts :) We love to make you smile and laugh with our silly, far-out, and sometimes cool videos. This year, though, we thought: “Gosh, what to do – smack in the middle of a pandemic?” So, this is what we came up with: the first-ever music video with an original song using lyrics crowdsourced from IT people all over the world, about a topic that is now close to e-v-e-r-y one of us. Introducing “Working From Home” – the music video. Watch & enjoy! [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fWycLtF6Ebs[/youtube] Cheers, Dena

New ‘Worksafe App’ now available as a FREE add-on

Hi SysAiders, We launched an exciting new add-on, called Worksafe app, which can make immediate impact for you – whether you guys are still working remotely or already heading back to the office. In a nutshell: Worksafe app gives you a simple way for your employees to check-in and report on their health statuses and location. It reduces the COVID-19 self-reporting burdens and compliance risk you’re probably experiencing now (or will be very soon). And it’ll give your management real-time visibility to ensure a safe, secure, and productive workforce. Plus – it’s free. Get further details on the SysAid Marketplace, where there's a nice orange button you can click to get the app :) Please let me know what you think in the comments below. Cheers, Dena

Meet JoeBot the chatbot! Currently in beta and learning. Check it out!

Hey guys, As you might have noticed, we are currently going through a beta run of our brand new JoeBot. It can be found in the bottom-right corner of your screen here, and on some other SysAid.com pages. JoeBot is constantly learning, but needs your help to figure out what's important to know! Whenever you have questions or issues, try asking him first and he might be able to help out. Even if he doesn't know the answer yet, he will suggest results from our website, and we will also teach him according to the most popular questions/issues, so he will know much more with time! Check it out :) Cheers, Danny

Supporting you through COVID-19 and beyond

Hi SysAiders, Hope you are all keeping safe and well. Quarantine life is new for all of us, but we will get through this! I wanted to let you know that SysAid employees have been working remotely (safely) and doing all we can to support you during these crazy days. Recently, we created and published a COVID-19 Resource Hub and it’s chock full of useful, practical tips and guidance. Not to mention some fun stuff too. So if you need a smile, or advice on topics ranging from remote support to continuity planning to digitizing workflows (and more) – please check it out. Visit the COVID-19 Resources Center for IT service management. Would love to hear your feedback/comments (below) about what you see in the Hub. It’s the only way for us to know if we’re on track, and how to improve. Cheers, Dena

Security enhancements - relevant to Cloud customers only

Hi Cloud customers, Please note that as part of our ongoing commitment to security, we're tightening the secured connection to our services. As of May 10, 2020, we'll be blocking the older non-supported TLS protocol versions 1.0/1.1, and will only allow the more advanced secured versions. So please be aware that if you're using very old browsers, you won't be able to access our services. You'll need to ensure that all machines that are running the SysAid agent use a .NET Framework of 4.6 or higher that supports higher TLS protocols. For details on browser support for TLS versions, please read this article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Layer_Security#Web_browsers Let us know if you have any questions or concerns. Best regards, Dena
