Enhancements :

  • SDF- 27495 : Release Management in ServiceDesk Plus

    ServiceDesk Plus now supports Release Management in the IT help desk. Release management allows you to plan, build, test, and deploy releases to the production environment. A release can be defined as the process of delivering a set of authorized changes to IT services in a controlled environment. You can use release management to deploy hardware, software, documentation, processes, guidelines, policies, and other components to service operations. Throughout its life cycle, the release process is closely associated with the change management process.

    ServiceDesk Plus supports the following 9 stages that are essential to any release process :

    • Submission
    • Planning
    • Development
    • Testing
    • UAT
    • Deployment
    • Training
    • Review
    • Closure

    Each stage in the release management contains statuses that indicate the progress of a release within the stage. Besides statuses, each stage has its planned schedule, roles, approvals, tasks and in some cases, downtimes.

    You can create a release request easily by using pre-configured templates, associate workflows with release requests to define the direction of the flow of the release process. Using workflows, you can include statuses in each stage, set up approvals, allocate stage-wise permissions to users, and configure notifications.To learn more about release management, Click here.

    Enterprise Service Management (ESM)

    After upgrading to ServiceDesk Plus version 11, you can implement enterprise service management (ESM) in your organization.

    ESM enables you to bring ITSM-like help desk service to other business functions in your organization. Each business function can have a dedicated service desk instance with templates, categories, and configurations specific to that function. For example, you can have a template to request for new hire orientation under HR and request for air conditioner service under Facilities.

    Before you can create these service desk instances, you need to configure the ESM Directory, which will now be the central repository of all organizational data, including user information, service desk instances, and user association to these instances.

    All users can log on to the ESM Portal to access service desks to submit specific issues. User permissions to instances are configured in the ESM Directory. You can configure the application with a single service desk instance or with multiple instances.

    The following table lists module-wise differences between single instance and multiple instances under enterprise service management.

    • Errors during replacement are tracked in the FailedQuery.html file under logs.
    • All old schema queries successfully tracked are available in the SucceedQuery.html file.
    • Querying the following tables is not possible anymore: Requester, Technician, HelpdeskCrew, and UserAdditionalFields

    Behavior Change in 9424

    • SD-71761 : Earlier, while creating a request/ticket, the client machine's host name was stored in the request's history. Henceforth, only the client machine's IP address will be stored since the property 'enabledLookups' will be set to 'false' in 'server.xml' file by default.

    • You can revert to the old behavior by setting the property 'enabledLookups' to 'true' in the 'server.xml' file

      Note: This requires a restart and might result in performance problems since resolving the client host name depends on a call to the DNS server.
