A couple feature requests

If Self Service app can leverage cached credentials, it would help greatly in our larger environments, where creatives/production folks need the fewest number of steps possible. OPTION-launching Self Service app would be a good way to allow remote support folks (Helpdesk/Desktop Support) to log in to Self Service app using different credentials to see the entire library of installers/patches.

If JAMF can add a feature to Self Service, or provide a manageable workflow, so we can force Self Service to come up when we "give" a user software. This way the user can opt out by exiting.

Thanks,
Don

In regards to the second half of this, you could use the same workflow as in
the last email, with a smart group checking for receipts. Then just have
that smart group run a script on the machines to open the Self Service app:

`open /Applications/Self Service.app

Then if you wanted to make sure they know they have new packages available:

/usr/sbin/jamf displayMessage -message "There are new packages available for
you in Self Service. Please download them at your earliest convenience."

So Self Service would open on their machine as often as you run the policy
until they download all the packages you're checking receipts for.
