Hi,  
Does anyone know how IIQ validated when submitting an access request if the request for simillar entitlement is already pending.  
Out of the box IIQ gives a pop-up that reuqest is pending and you cannot submit the request.

Hi @abhishek_chowdhury

It checks for an existing IdentityRequest for the entitlement for that identity.
