When uploading a vendor order file, impatient librarians have been known to click on the Upload button multiple times if the system is slow. The result is the same items being loaded multiples times to the same purchase order, creating duplicate (or more!) lineitems. This can be complicated and time-consuming to clean up.

The same can happen if a librarian unwittingly loads the same file on a different day, using the same po name.

While this is largely a training issue to cut down on operator error, it would be helpful if Evergreen could display an alert message before creating the duplicates, allowing the librarian to back away and avoid creating the mess.

We've experienced this since 2.0. We are currently on 2.4/Master.
