Hi @nabeel55 , 

Use the event based email notification and trigger that event with recipient details in the loop. 

In BR, iterate the manager's arrayList and trigger the event for email notification.

//Inside Business rule you can write as
var managers = [
        { email: 'manager1@example.com', name: 'Manager 1' },
        { email: 'manager2@example.com', name: 'Manager 2' },
        // Add more managers as needed
    ];
gs.eventQueue('your_event_name',current,current.number,managers);

// inside email template you can use by... managers array with the help of event object....
for(var i=0;i<event.managers.length;i++){
email.addAddress("cc",event.managers[i].email,event.managers[i].name)
}

Hi @nabeel55 ,

Please refer this code if you are going to implement it... I tried it on my personal instance as well so this will help you.

// Your Business Rule will look like this.
(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/ ) {
    var managers = [{
            email: 'abraham.lincoln@example.com',
            name: 'Abraham Lincoln'
        },
        {
            email: 'aileen.mottern@example.com',
            name: 'Aileen Mottern'
        },
    ];

     gs.eventQueue('sending_mail_managers', current, current.number, JSON.stringify(managers));
})(current, previous);

// Your email script I have logged the contents so that you can understand
// Add your code here
	var mails = JSON.parse(event.parm2);
	gs.info("Lets getb the JSON object in cc"+typeof event.parm2);
    for (var i = 0; i < mails.length; i++) {
        email.addAddress("cc", mails[i].email, mails[i].name);
		gs.info("managers arre here "+mails[i].email);
    }
// This is the code I have tried it and logged it so you can see the variables
