ServiceDesk Release Details:

Direct Ordering with Reliable

This latest version of ServiceDesk adds an integration with another major parts distributor, Reliable. When selecting items in the Special Order Part Process form (F8), you may now select Reliable from the selection of Direct Order Vendors.

You must contact Reliable to receive a unique username and password for direct ordering. That username and password will be saved in columns F and G in your VendorsList.csv.

On Demand Direct Order Shipping

You may now create a custom address book of direct ordering shipping destinations. After installing the updated version, the system will automatically install a new file in your /sd/netdata folder called ShipToLocations.csv.

After editing the ShipToLocations.csv file, your newly created shipping options will be displayed in the Shipping Location menu after selecting your preferred direct order vendor.

Minor Fixes and Improvements:

Appointment Tooltip Display

In the Special Order Parts Management screen (F8), a tooltip is displayed when a pending appointment exists. Previously, while in View mode, this tooltip blocked users from right-clicking the invoice number to open the associated job record. This issue has been resolved. The tooltip will still be displayed, but right-click actions now pass through it and function as expected.

Mass Messaging from the Dispatch Map

A minor improvement was made to the mass messaging (alt-M) from the dispatch map to make the system respond appropriately if more than one number is tagged as a texting target (TxtTo).

Additional Fields Added to Special Order Parts Import

The Special Order Parts bulk import function has a new column available New Availability. Adding this column to your bulk part import will overwrite any text found in the Avlblty field in the Special Order Parts system.

SD-CyberLink Release Details:

Sd-CyberLink, version 4.5.107 released 10/22/2026, lets Rossware share your customer and job details securely with Service Company Solutions. SCS is building that data into its phones, messaging, SCAI AI agent, analytics, reporting and much more. To take full advantage of these improved abilities, you will want to navigate to your dashboard.rossware.com account and activate the Third Party Connection with Service Company Solutions.
