Is it possible to change a multi-body part into an assembly?
In solid edge, I can do it like this:
1. create a part with several bodies. Each body has its own name.
2. then I click on Multi-body publish command
3. in new window, I can see all the solid bodies, that will be saved into separate files. They all have the same folder destination as the original file. But, I can change those for each file. The names of new files are the same as the names of bodies in the file. I can also select Create Assembly command. With this, the assembly file with those bodies (new components) is automatically created.
4. click OK in this window and parts and assembly file are created.

I know, that in NX, I can use Create New Component. But, with this command, I have to create files/components one by one. I can not just click on a command and create all the bodies at once.
Is there any other way in NX to achive something similar to what I have described above?

Thanks for any info.
Regards.
