Create multiple Task Instance from one Task Instance

Question

We have a process, where user can request for multiple resources(access) in one single request.Currently user has to wait until all the resource requests are approved by application owners to start the provisioning process.
I am thinking of splitting that one request(task) into multiple task, based on the number of resources requested.so that, if one resource request is approved user can get that particular access.
My question :
1.How will I split the one task into multiple task and pass the required information to child task?
2.How do I handle views?Currently since its one task , we checkout and check-in the same view.
3.How will I overcome the possibility of one view overwritten by the other.
Thanks.

Thanks.Hi,
yes u can split one task into multiple task means as ur requirment diffrent task for different resource. so u have to write diffrent W/F for each resource and call them by setting a counter for number of resource.
the below code help u.
<Variable name='index'>
          <i>0</i>
     </Variable>
<Activity id='1' name='createNewTask'>
          <Action id='0' name='createView' application='com.waveset.session.WorkflowServices'>
               <Argument name='op' value='createView'/>
               <Argument name='type' value='Process'/>

                         <s>give any name to the task</s>
               </Argument>
               <Argument name='process'>
                         <s>task name that u want to launch</s><!-- u can get task name dynamicly by rule also by passing resource name -->
               </Argument>          
               <Argument name='accountId' value='$(accountId)'/><!-- pass the required information to child task as argument -->
               </Action>
