Hi @Ramya,

You would need to create a business rule that is triggered when a product on a request has a BoM and tasks do not exist on the request for those BoM elements. It may be easier to populate a user def field on the request on creation when the product has a BoM and then use that fields value to trigger the Business Rule.

You would then need to use an XML output with custom XML in order to generate multiple tasks from the one Business Rule. The XML would need to select all of the required BoM and then run the task generation using each element in turn.

Hope this helps,
