A full functioning mobile app that doesn't require you to go to the browser version on your phone for 90% of your needs.

When entering time at present It must be one contiguous block that is either all billed or all not billed. Depending upon global settings it can be defined by a duration and end time, or by start and end time. But there is no way to account for other overlapping time entries. A time-tracking field that lets you enter an amount of time to deduct from a time entry without changing the start and end times would allow for this and avoid a lot of tedious small time entries. For instance, a servicedesk tech working on one matter (ticket A) gets interrupted by a call (ticket B). They handle the call, make a time entry for that, and return to the first task. In the current system, they will end up billing the duration of the call to both tickets A and B unless they make separate time entries for ticket A before and after the call (ticket B). Importantly, this gets a lot worse when that agent is interrupted more than once. With a deduction field, the tech makes their time entry for ticket B when they take the call. Then when they make their entry for ticket A, they enter the correct start and end times and then take the duration of ticket B and enter it in the deduction field. The number of time entries required to bill (or not bill) all time correctly reduces a lot and ticket notes are simpler and more readable. On top of that, an option to automatically deduct the duration of overlapping time entries would make this super simple. This could be a button or checkbox next to the deduction field that automatically calculates the deduction upon request.

Currently an action only allows the ability to make the agent a follower of the parent ticket. We would like for this to be an option for the child ticket created from an action button so that agents are able to follow a child ticket in teams they don't have access to. Currently agents have to manually add themselves as a follower on a child ticket and if they forget they lose the ability to add themselves later resulting in them having to contact the team to do this manually.

My first EOFY with Halo, and I wasn't able to run a stocktake. I can belive how they dont have this built in. No way to go and count all your in stock hardware and make sure its all accounted for. Im sure I cant be the only shop that uses halo and has stock that needs to be chaecked each year (or should be more frequently). Im not even in retail and this is a need. Anyway, support said just run a report and check it off. It would take far too long to count everything and manually match it off against a list. Instead, I knocked up this stocktake app that pulls in all the stock and allows me to just scan everything with a barcode scanner to count it. Spent a couple hours making it and then only an hour or two stocktaking. Much quicker and a far better result, as I am able to get reports out of it and reasons for missing stock. It counts serial numbers too, not just item quantities, so I can verify that everything I think should be here is actually here. Syncro had something like this built in, which is where my inspiration for how this operates came from. I would love it if Halo could implement this as a module, but in the meanwhile, maybe this can help others. https://github.com/ElliottsTech/Halo_Stocktaker

The HTML editor chosen for use across HaloPSA lacks and has a terrible time copying data from Word Docs. I would love to see an improved or replace HTML editor across HaloPSA, especially in Knowledge Base Articles.

Every view is useful and that's why you added all these views. Unpaid invoices, sites & users for a client, etc. Why can't I export them? We all agree they are very useful and concise collections of business data, but we're limited to seeing 50 rows and we can't export it. It's useful! You know it's useful! You put it in the application! Let me have the data! Thanks

Current state The Self Service portal currently supports CSS overrides via the configuration settings. While this is useful for basic brand alignment (colors, fonts), it is limited to style adjustments on top of the existing portal structure. The underlying HTML cannot be modified, which means the layout, component hierarchy, and DOM structure are fixed. Requested improvement We would like the ability to fully customize the Self Service portal at the HTML level — either by editing the underlying templates directly, or by providing a way to inject custom HTML blocks alongside the existing CSS override functionality. Ideally, this would allow us to rebuild the portal layout entirely from scratch while still leveraging HaloPSA data (logged-in user context, ticket lists, asset data, etc.) through available template variables or data bindings. Specific capabilities requested Edit or replace portal HTML templates directly, not just overlay CSS on top of the existing structureControl over the layout structure, header, navigation, content areas, footer. Without depending on the default component hierarchyAccess to Halo template variables in custom HTML (e.g. current user name, company, ticket count) to enable dynamic, data-driven layouts Business case MSPs operate across multiple customers with different branding requirements. As it stands, all customers share the same portal structure, only colors and fonts can be differentiated. Full HTML/CSS control would allow us to deliver a genuinely white-labeled experience per customer, improving portal adoption and customer satisfaction. It would also allow the portal to be redesigned to match modern UX standards rather than being constrained by the default layout.

Some clients have multiple sites, and each site may normally receive its own invoices. However, there are situations where a different site needs to be responsible for paying a specific invoice. It would be helpful to have the ability to select or override the billing site at the invoice level. This would allow a one-off invoice to be assigned to a different site without changing the client’s normal billing setup or site-level invoice configuration.

Create an Agent permission option to allow re-enrolling users MFA. Currently this can only be done by Sysadmins

We heavily use to-do's as a way of creating checklists on common steps. However, a lot of our clients require unique custom checklists. We use IT Glue currently for this and it allows not only a to-do, but it allows that to-do to be expanded detailed steps (written in HTML). What I would like to see is the following To-dos have their own tab in tickets and not just a sidebar. To-do's can be expanded to show links or steps (See screenshot of Glue) To-dos once completed hide from the list To-do's that can be associated with a client site and be templated To-Do templates can be grouped

Currently you can only have one Closed Ticket Status. This doesn't really suit how we work as we sometimes Cancel tickets which are raised in error, where as any tickets which are brought to a successful conclusion are 'Resolved'. At the moment when we Cancel tickets, they still show in the User Portal under Open Tickets as the Status itself is classed as an Open status, not closed. We're using the only Closed status we have available as Resolved.

Could you please build a Microsoft Copilot Connector that allows interaction with all the data in Halo?

I would like to change the favicon that is shown on the customer portal – right now it’s the red haloPSA favicon which doesn’t match our color scheme at all. Replacing it with our own custom icon preferred, alternatively the ability to set a HEX color code for the existing icon would be a 2nd option Also when going to our portal the loading circle is blue at first, and then changes to our green, is there any way to fix that? Right now the favicon is red, the initial loading circle is blue, and then finally things change to green, which is a pretty bad mis-match of colors Additionally, it would be great to have the option to repeat a background image vertically, right now we had to make a fairly large image in height to have it work on every possible screen/mobile device, but the caveat is that the background image takes a second or two to load in. If we could just have it repeating on the Y axis that would solve the problem, but I was told that it's not possible, even by custom CSS at this time.

In the settings screen it is currently only possible to search settings for a /section/ (i.e. 'integrator'). Given the vast complexity of the HALO product and the fact that a great number of settings that might be considered related are not actually grouped together, the organic way in which settings are added, and the typically very lacking documentation, please make it possible to search the actual setting 'labels' and descriptions. i.e. I should be able to search for "new user" and at least be able to click through to the exact location of, if not see the current state of, all the setting options with the string "new user" in their title or in-line help text

Allow more depth knowledge base settings, Allowing sub categories within an existing parent category Linking articles to customers, one or multiple without having to grant a customer a whole category in Halo article template types - templates for agents to select from when adding articles
