Using Freshservice

We are starting to use Device42 to import a full list of our assets and, so far, we’ve had a good experience with it. However in order to make the most of the ‘Impacted Services’ feature in the Change module, we want to be able to link our assets to Services (Applications within Device42) so that, for example, when a server is the subject of a change, the owners of any application relying on that server are automatically added as change approvers.An Asset can be manually linked to a Service within Freshservice but this is not practical given the numbers of Services and Assets that we have. Performing a regular sync operation via the Device42 app options screen in Freshservice does not import any Asset/Application relationships pre-mapped within Device42.Has anyone else had this problem? I’d be grateful for any guidance on how we might manage it.

I am trying to implement custom scripts specifically on the offboarding page for the second part of the process(Reclaim Assets). Our imported assets have a naming standard, usually follow PREFIX-Serial#. We want to make it easy for the user to complete the form by changing the displayed name from the above to Laptop without actually changing the asset name in our inventory. I know how I can achieve this using JS but unsure where I can put the custom script under portal designer :(I’ve tried footer page and have had no luck. I assume this page is a public page and scripts implemented under portal designer do not apply? But than again, I have to sign in to access the page so I assumed this was not the case. 

Hi All, I am facing an issue while using the Approvals feature in the Freshservice mobile app. Earlier, all past approval comments were visible on a single page. Currently, we need to expand each approval group individually to view the comments, which makes the approval process cumbersome for approvers. Is there any workaround or setting available to restore the earlier view or simplify this process? Regards,Amulya S.

Now that you’ve taken the first step with Freshservice trial, it's time to make this platform your own right from Day 1.Set up your service desk quick and easy, and transform your employee support experience. You can do this in 3 simple steps – 1. Set up primary helpdesk email > 2. Set up support portal > 3. Invite agents.

I struggled with the existing instructions, hopefully these steps are clearer:By default, there are five asset states in Freshservice,In Use : The asset is currently being used by somebody in your organization. Missing : The asset isn’t being used, but cannot be used since it’s missing. In Transit : The asset has been ordered from a vendor or is being moved. In Stock : The asset is readily available for use. Retired : The asset is too old, or isn’t functional and has been retired. Add your custom asset state here for our team I used recycled/ destroyed.Follow the next steps:Click on Hardware Field (Parent Folder) Choose Edit  Click just right outside the “Asset State” field (when cursor changes from one pointer to four pointers) a new menu opens.

Freshservice has released the ability to archive custom fields in a service item. I was hoping this would improve the agent experience when updating existing service items but was left disappointed. I am reaching out to the community to see if anyone has come up with a unique way of handling this.Problem:I want to keep historical data for service items easily accessible in the ticket so it can be referred to at all times in the state it was submitted. This is important to ensure we have an accurate record of what the requester selected, particularly around on and offboarding.Archiving Fields:  I understand that the field is referen

Team As we are currently using Freshservice to create laptop requests, I’d like to understand whether it’s possible to generate PR and PO reports directly from the same portal after approval.Could you please confirm if this feature is available or if any configuration is required?

How can we set up an automator to email a particular agent when a CSAT is submitted below a certain threshold?  Under “EVENT”, you can add “ticket is updated” and “Customer Satisfaction Rating is….” ----but the non-editable qualifier is “When any of these events occur” - and I need this to be ALL As a “CONDITION”, I do not see anything regarding CSAT. Thanks. 

There is an automatic workflow configured to close all incoming mails with an Out of Office message. Based on certain key words either in Subject or Body, the ticket gets closed. What will be the scenario if a user sends an email to IT support email, and the requester had kept his supervisor in CC.As per the process, the ticket is created in the system and a technican is assigned. But if the supervisor is on leave and there is an Out of Office mail from him to all recipeitns, includign IT support, the system triggers the workflow and closes the ticket. How to avoid such situations. Kindly explan any work around or a better aprpoach

Hi everyone 👋I’m just getting started with Freshworks and I’m planning to onboard a small team of 5–10 users. I’d love to learn from experience — What’s worked best in your team for training new users so they adopt Freshworks smoothly? Any pitfalls or mistakes you’d recommend avoiding when first rolling it out? Do you use a particular onboarding process or checklist (internal doc, staged rollout, live training, etc.) that made the transition easier? If you’ve done this before, I’d appreciate any tips or sample flows — especially for small teams.Thanks in advance! Looking forward to hearing your experiences.

Hello,I would like to ask if it is possible to make some adjustments to the filter section in the Ticket List.At the moment, there are several filter fields that our organization does not use, and when we need to filter tickets, we have to scroll a lot to find the fields that are relevant to us.It would be very helpful if we could: Remove unused fields Reorder or move fields to reflect our operational priorities This would make ticket searches much faster and more efficient for our team.Additionally, some users need to filter by multiple categories at the same time, but since the current control is a combo box, it only allows selecting one category at a time.This makes filtering quite inconvenient in daily operations.I am attaching an image related to the first request (filter customization).If you need f

Hi everyone,lately I am facing a small issue at home. My rooms don't keep a fresh smell for long and I am trying to figure out which plugin air freshener actually works best. I didn’t expect it to be this confusing honestly. I went through so many blogs and review sites like Wirecutter, New York Times product reviews, and even some home-care blogs like The Spruce and Good Housekeeping. After scrolling through multiple forums and reading tons of user feedback, I kind of narrowed it down to two options.Mostly people were recommending these two products: Glade PlugIns Refills Air Freshener  Febreze Plug In Air Freshener, Odor-Fighting Scented Oil Refill 

How do I configure Freshservice to use the SLA assigned to a Service listed as an Impacted Service in an Incident?  I do not see Impacted Service as a Trigger option on an SLA in Admin → SLA and OLA Policies.In our previous ITSM system we setup SLAs related to the Services, and then selected the Service in the “Affected Service” field - this related the SLA to the Incident based on the Service affected. Can anyone help?

Hi,I’m trying to create a workflow that will notify the requester when the agent adds a note to the resolutions tab. I’ve reached out to the support team and they’ve confirmed there isn’t a condition/function available yet for the resolutions due to it being a relatively new feature, but may be an enhancement coming soon. In the interim, has anyone come up with a workaround? Thanks in advance. :)
