Survey instance is not created if a user has a pending survey instance for the same survey

KB Summary by Now Assist

Description

The Create Assessment record is not created if user has a pending survey instance for the same survey.

Steps to Reproduce

 

  1. Create a trigger condition for the Customer satisfaction survey survey.
  2. Add a trigger condition on the incident table that fires when incident state is closed.
  3. Set the Repeat interval to 5 seconds.
  4. Try closing an incident with caller_id="abel tutor".
    The system creates a Survey Instances record assigned to Abel Tutor with a State of Ready to take.
  5. Close another incident with caller_id="abel tutor"
    No additional Survey Instances record is created for Abel Tutor because the previous instance is not completed.

Workaround

There are two workaround options:

  • Use legacy survey.
  • In Fuji patch 1 and later relases, cancel the previous survey and receive a new one. You can still only provide feedback for one task that is the latest closure.
