Create template subtasks to add granularity to the transfer order line tasks. For
example, before preparing for shipment, for a computer, you may want to create sub tasks for
imaging the computer or adding additional software.

## Before you begin

Role required: asset_system_admin or inventory_user

## About this task

The template subtasks that you create are stored in the Template Subtask
\[alm_template_subtask\] table. When a transfer order line task is created and if
subtasks are defined for that transfer order line task, then the subtasks are
automatically added to the transfer order line task.

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllInventoryTransfer Order LinesTemplate Subtasks.
2. Click New and fill out the form fields (as shown in the table).
