ah well you see we have a very very restrictive group policy i am reasonable confident they can not do harm. They can not ping, change wallpaper, run cmd, in fact see run, it goes on! (hope i don't end up eating my words )

None of my users would try anything or in fact can but i just want to have visibility that means they can see we are working for them.

Sorry to nag Haim, but it is now almost a month since you talked about this and still no "not closed" filter, or notes or most usefully the messages.
I see jonathan has opened a feature request for filtering the messages here:- http://www.ilient.com/Sysforums/posts/list/223.page

yeah, yeah, i know, sorry about that, but everything has been added as requested.

I'v added a new status "All Active" which includes all the statuses that are open in the helpdesk (including the bug / feature request statuses)

I'v also added the option for end users to add notes to their service requests in our end user portal.

Enjoy

thanks Haim, but I have just been on to the portal and It is not offering an all active filter, or the facility to add notes!

Are we looking at the same portal here?
did your changes get saved?

This is interesting as it is good to see that other people think that more should be made of the support portal. Im talking about the ilient support one - not our local implementations. I have also been arguing for messages to show on the support site for the reason that I dont get my emails and therefore I rely on the website, which of course shows me nothing. Personally even if I was getting emails I would rather just log in occaisionally to check on the status of my support calls. That to me would be "keeping IT simple", would it not?

My point exactly! I have raised this again with Sarah and I got the impression that is an area the Ilient are going to try and improve this year along with bug tracking improvements. The main issue is they do not want us seeing their internal emails in the system, infact I have just come up with a way resolve this:-

This could so easily be resolved with a quick coding change to the end user portal to not display messages "where both the To field and the from field contain the ilient.com domain name and no other external recipients, unless one of the email addresses matches that of the current user viewing the end user portal". (The last bit would make sure that any messages between support and the end user who has an email address in the same domain still show up)

You could make this exclude domain a configurable field in preferences and offer this feature to all sysaiders.

What do you think Oded/Sarah? could this be easily & speedily implemented?


I hope this finally helps us move forward on this one.

techguy ,
We are planning to add some changes to our support site, but at the moment, our development team is working hard on version 6, which is a big step forward for SysAid, so we will start working on those changes after version 6 will be released (which is not so far into the future )

I understand that they have been in a holiday period out there, and they have been very busy catching up, you are correct this is unlike them.
Do you still have a problem? if so start a new post and we will try to help you.

I meant to post on this a couple of months back when I discovered it, but I forgot to, SysAid have now added the messages (emails) to the SysAid support end user portal, (slight bug it doesn't quite work with the very oldest SR's that I have), but you can now see the history of your correspondance with sysaid support at last. Much more useful !
Thanks SysAid.

P.S let me know if you work out why no messages are shown for my very oldest jobs.
