Hi,
I am looking to set up this configuration in Appian and I'm not sure how to approach this. I am designing a task manager application where a single task can be assigned to multiple people. So in the interface form, it will list generic task details such as task name, description, due date, and who the task needs to be assigned to. If I assign it to Alice, Bob, and Charlie, then I want to create three tasks with each one assigned to each individual.
<Interface form>
Create a single task to "Do Laundry" and assign to Alice, Bob, Charlie.
<Data store>
1 - Do Laundry - Alice
2 - Do Laundry - Bob
3 - Do Laundry - Charlie
This way I can see if each person has done their task. I assume I need to use a for each loop somewhere in the process model? How do I code this in the process model to create X number of tasks and write X number of records?

jimc Add a start process with a MNI. The MNI should run as per the count of the assignees. Configure the child process model which has the interface for the task. Then pass assignees to the child as per the MNI index and configure that PV as the assignee in the interface
