The ability to associate multiple CIs to a task can be extended to other types of tasks. You can also disable multiple CI association from the related lists on change request records.

## Before you begin

Role required: admin

## Procedure

1. In the navigation filter, enter <kbd class="ph userinput">sys_properties.list</kbd> to open the System Property \[sys_properties\] table.
2. Open the List of all the task types where user wants to associate CIs using a List (com.snc.task.associate_ci) system property.  
   The value of this property is set to change_request, incident by default to enable association of multiple CIs to change requests.
3. To enable multiple CI association to other types of task, add the required table as a value.  
   For example, to enable multiple CI association for problem records, add <kbd class="ph userinput">problem</kbd> as a value, separated by a comma.
4. Click Update to save and update the property.
5. **Optional:** Complete the following steps to disable multiple CI association for the Change Request form.
   1. Remove the change_request value from the List of all the task types where user wants to associate CIs using a List (com.snc.task.associate_ci) system property.
   2. Navigate to System UIList control.
   3. Perform one or both of the following tasks to disable multiple CI association for the related lists.  

      |-|-|
      | Associated CIs | Open the entry with the task_ci.task related list and clear the Omit edit check box. |
      | Impacted Services/CIs | Open the entry with the task_cmdb_ci_service.task related list and clear the Omit edit check box. |
