SCCM USMT - restore to multiple destination computers

Question

I'm trying to use the User State Migration tool built into SCCM to capture a user profile and deploy it to multiple computers. We have multiple manufacturing tablets of different makes/models and I'd like to be able to capture the user state of one "golden image" tablet and push that out to new tablets as we image them. However, it looks like this is only done for one computer association at a time and each time you need to re-pull the golden image user state each time you want to deploy to a new tablet. Am I crazy here? Is there a better option for this in SCCM?

Hi, @Troy Reeves

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.

The common migration scenarios are PC-refresh and PC-replacement, so this is only done for one computer association at a time:

Why do we want to deploy a specify user state to multiple destination computers? To apply a golden image to multiple destination computers, we always capture the golden image and deploy it to multiple computers:
