Situation

In BSCM, try to generate all the children of linked elements in the "Structure".

Resolution

In BSCM, when the checkbox "Include the structure from elements linked to service model elements" is checked, it will generate the first level linked elements only. All the children of that linked elements in the "Structure" won't be generated in BSCM.  For example, having the following element tree,
adapter
     |---elementFromAdapter
                |----e1
                |----%e2 (linked element)
structure
     |---parent
                |---child
                          |---%elementFromAdapter (linked element)
                          |                |----e1
                          |                |----%e2
                          |---grandChild
The generated model should be stopped at element like:
generated
           |---parent
                       |---child
                                |---elementFromAdapter
                                |---grandChild
You can create multiple "Definition" that use the generated "elementFromAdapter" as new structure root to generate children of "linked" element. To get help on how to create BSCM definitions, please refer to ServiceModelingGuide.pdf, chapter 9.
