How can we relate incidents in ServiceNow?

We can have many users registering an incident for the same reason. Is there some way we can relate them in Servicenow?

Once you define a Parent Incident, all additional Incidents can be classified as a Child incident. When the Parent is Resolve, all Children are resolved.

Thanks a lot this will help us a great deal!


Add the Parent Incident field to your Incident form. Then add the Child Incidents Related List to the form as well. There is a business rule named Update Child Incidents that copies comments from Parent to Child incident or resolves Child incidents.
