    If I call record action of parent wont it create a new parent record? I get your point in creating child records when you are using parent record action. But i dont want new parent record. For existing parent record itself i will create multiple child records. is it possible using the above approach? i tried using start process link, that worked like charm but the mail issue is its redirecting to the child record from where i clicked add new report and not showing the new report created.

    No, it's not gonna create a new parent record (we are using record action not record list action). Record action takes context , we gonna provide that context (parent id that already exists) from child .

    but the mail issue is its redirecting to the child record from where i clicked add new report and not showing the new report created.

    Same things gonna happen with your current approach to . After completion it's gonna come back to summary view of older child record. Sorry to say but your approach is bit wrong. 

    Either you need to change your relationship ,It means make the child as parent and Current parent as Look up table or Master table. Or Using above approach i have mentioned
