    You cannot write through to a related record.

    I suggest to create a new rule input of type multiple document and make this the target for your file upload field.

    In the process model, first write the main record and store the written data back to the process variable. Next, create an expression rule which takes the main record and the list of files. This expression loops on the files and creates a MFU TestFiles record item for each, containing the id of the document and the primary key of the main record.

    Call that expression in a script task and save the output to another process variable. Then write that list to the record/database.
