Duplicate Requests
If there are two or more identical requests in the system logged by a single requester, you can:
- keep one and delete all remaining duplicate requests with the Delete command – see Deleting Requests;
- merge identical requests into a single request with Edit – Merge.
Using Edit – Merge will move the Request A Log contents to the Request B Log and delete Request A permanently. Follow the steps below to merge requests:
- Remember the request numbers of the requests that you want to delete by merging.
- Go to the Request List and select the request into which the log data from all other identical requests will be inserted.
- Go to the main menu and select Edit – Merge. The Merge requests window will open. Type the request number of the request from step 1 to the left-hand part of the window. The right-hand part of this window should contain the target request, i.e. the one that will be kept. Only provide the numeric value, i.e. 120 instead of "#120-HdTicket". Click on Merge to confirm the action.
- If you want to merge multiple requests into a single one, simply separate the request (ticket) numbers with semicolons.
Note:
If you want to merge requests, you need to be the operator or solver for all services (being a solver for the request is not sufficient) under which these requests fall.
Warning:
The Merge Requests operation cannot be undone.
