I am new here to Software Inventory. Is there a way to run the discovery/probe in a sandbox? I want to run the tools but do not want to alter the hardware assets that are already entered into the system manually. Our Hardware assets are set and looking pretty good. I do not want those items to get messed up.

Purchase Order Number Question

Anyone know if it is possible to change the “Order Number” schema for the Purchase order module? We don’t want it to start with “PO” as this will get confusing with our actual Finance System PO. We are going to use the Purchase order Module in FS to track requesting POs from our finance system, so we want to change this schema to not be PO but maybe order number or something.

Multiple Vendors and URLs on PO Request Form?

We have to route our POs through various levels of approvals (government, ugh!), and before Fresh, we would complete a PDF form that lists the items out like the “Item Details” portion on the Fresh PO form, and then we would insert URLs in the email with the PDF attached to forward it around to all the approvers.Is there a way to select multiple vendors on a single PO, and allow the orderer to add multiple URLs for as many items they are buying? Like, if they want one thing from Amazon, and 3 things from Dell, they could keep adding links for all the individual items they are ordering… Altedrnatively, is there a way to insert a clickable URL in the Item Details portion - in the description field, for instance?

Address attributes visible

It would really help if the address information is visible or at least easy accessible from within a ticket or asset. Now you can only see the identifier and that is not the entire address.To see the complete address you need to be an admin and go to settings-assets-locations.Is there a way to have the attributes like address line, city, postal code, etc visible from within the asset or ticket?

Assigning Assets to a hot desk

Hi all Not sure if this is a question for Assets or Requesters but hopefully I’m in the right place. We have 4 hot desks in the office, we would like to assign the equipment to Hot desk 1, hot desk 2 ect. However I cannot find a way of creating a User/Requester without an email address. Is is possible to create a service account of sorts for each hot desk in the office so I can assign assets to them? Many thanks

Can I search the FreshService assets API via asset_tag OR Name OR Hostname?

Hello, I’m trying to figure out whether its possible to query the FreshService API for a specific asset based on multiple fields. Apologies if this isn’t the correct place to ask this question! In our environment some computers are often missing either their asset tag, name (aka display name) or hostname field. In a perfect world, all three fields would be identical for every asset, however as this isn’t the case, I need a way to query for an asset across all three fields. Is it possible to query for an asset that matches on ANY of those fields. Similar to the way the FreshService search works in the UI of the inventory page?According to the documentation here, the only fields supported on the search endpoint are;name asset_tag serial_numberIs there any other way of doing this search via the API in a single query? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks,M

Creating a Reimbursement Form as a Service Request Help

Hey everyone! In need of some help. I have experimenting with creating a basic reimbursement form as a service request but not sure how to add this function into the request. I have provided some screen shots of my service request, along with my automation. What I am trying to do is basically create an expression to do simple addition, adding the total reimbursement cost. I would prefer having the total amount calculated in real time if possible on the form. Not sure if that is a possibility. Being very new to this, I am having trouble creating an expression that works. If you have any tips or tricks or an opinion if this is even a possibility, I would greatly appreciate it! Best,Jon

Mandate Asset on Change

Hi,I would like to have it mandatory to populate a Change ticket with an Asset at a certain status. This is not included in the change lifecycle settings as far as I know. I have instead tried to apply business rules that “Mandate Asset” as indicated in the screenshot but it simply doesn’t work. I can still create and/or edit changes without being asked to populate an asset.Has anyone encountered this issue or has other ways of achieving this? I tried to apply the same rule for Tickets. It works for “new” forms but not on “edit” forms.

Requester Submission of Multiple-Item Purchase Order

We have an internal requisition PDF that our users submit through email for approvals. We want to replace this process in Freshservice so users can submit requests that will eventually become purchase orders. I’m having a hard time trying to conceptualize how such a user portal form could capture an itemized list with quantity, subtotal, total for multiple items on the same request.For instance, a user wants to request a new computer, some office supplies, and a few things not in the service catalog. Like this, maybe:

Auto update asset departments

We have come across a problem where if someone moves department the assets associated to that person stay in the same department. We update our departments in AAD and then use AAD sync to update our departments in FreshService. When a department gets updated the assets follows the user and therefore the users department should change in the assets as well. I’m hoping this is a bug and not something that got overlooked. Has anyone else come across this problem and what are they doing to remediate it?

Disassociate Products with Discovered Assets / Delete Products with Associations

In our Product Catalog, we don’t want to display every single product model that our discovery agent finds. For instance, users should be able to select “Standard Computer” instead of having to go through 30 different Dell models that are in the Product Catalog because we have so many models in production. Dell comes out with a new model every other day, it seems. Same thing for Printers… we prefer to just list “Standard MFP” or “BizHub” instead of the 40 other printer models found in discovery.Is there a way to disassociate/delete/hide products in the catalog, and/or block or configure the discovery agent to only use a high-level category of “Desktop” “Printer” … ?

Editing Service Request after Rejection

In reviewing the ability for requesters to edit a service request after an approver has rejected a request, once the requester edits the service request, the approver doesn’t have the ability to now Approve it. On the Agent side it shows as rejected and the field is not editable. How can I structure the service request to have the Approver be able to review the changes and Approve/Reject the service request? I’d also like to have this automated so the Agent would get the alert that changes were made and they receive a new approval alert.

Asset management (Assigned vs Unassigned)

Hello, I need to use asset management in a daily use for IT assets ( laptops - sim cards ...etc),Most of assets assigned to users (used by...) = assignedOther assets in stock, which arnt assigned (unassigned), So i need to make a filter as assigned and unassigned, I tried to edit the default to add these options but its not allowed,Even if i added them on each category, but still i cant filter then unless i exported the sheet and this is not flexible,So how can i fix this or should i go to another solution like snip-it,all i need is to filter when we have outside (assigned → used by) and what we have in stock (unassigned) I thought I should add a category say (stock laptop - stock sim cards ...etc) ?????

Purchase Order Request Approval Notification

Is there a way to have notify an agent when a purchase order request that has been submitted for approval has been approved? Right now we just have to remember to go back and check the status. It would be much better if an email notification would go to the agent that created it or the ticket it’s associated with would be updated somehow. Or if there is a way to work this out with a workflow, that would be great.
