I would take it up one level, actually.  Since you appear to be creating 
standard types of change requests, why not create a change template, relate 
task templates to that change template, and proceed that way?  Then you only 
have to figure out how to use the change template in your process, and the 
tasks are automatically created.

Subject: ITSM 7 Automatic Task Creation (TMS)

** Hello Listers,

I'm currently working on trying to get tasks (TMS) automatically created within 
a Change Request (CRQ) using ITSM 7's Change Management / Task Management 
integration and was wondering if anyone had any tips or pointers regarding this.

I've read the ITSM 7 Architecture guide and the Task Management Admin guide and 
there's a notion about using Task Template Groups to fire off a set of Task 
Templates, but that appears to be a manual process?  I also read something 
about the CAI (command automation interface) but couldn't find much about it.

It doesn't look like the predefined task templates work like they used to in 
previous ITSM 5 versions where a field would trigger a set of filters to push 
into CHG:Task.  I'm about to create some filters against the template form that 
perform this action.  We also have the CHG:Change form automatically pushed via 
filters, followed by more filters that trigger the task template creation.  I 
am able to handle the CHG:Change form using CHG:ChangeInterface_Create.

Thanks in advance,
Jon
