Prevent Duplicate Tickets by Disabling Double Click

Sometimes, while creating an incident, users accidentally multi-click the "Open a ticket " button, resulting in multiple duplicate tickets being generated. To prevent this, can we implement a functionality that disables the button after the first click or prevents multiple submissions? This would help avoid duplicate ticket creation.

Hello All,

 

Preventing Duplicate Tickets Created via Bot – Workaround Using Business Rule

To avoid multiple duplicate tickets being generated via the bot, we implemented a workaround in our ticketing tool using a Business Rule.

Prevent Duplicate Incident Creation:
Use the following attributes to identify a duplicate ticket:

  • Created within 10 minutes

  • Caller

  • Short Description

  • Description

  • Opened by

If all these attributes match, the Business Rule prevents the creation of a new ticket and avoids duplication.

This has helped reduce noise and keep our incident queue cleaner.
Hope this helps others facing a similar issue!
