Is there a way to prevent duplicate tickets from vendors for same fault ID?

Dealing with automated vendor responses we end up with duplicate tickets regarding the same issue/fault.  The vendor tickets can be merged manually bu using the vendor fault identification but this is time consuming. Is there a way for vendor replies to be attached automatically to the original ticket with that vendor ticket number?
