Hi marcodegama93

Go to the

Object Manger> Tags> Render Tags> Compositing Tag

while your object is selected, it will be applied to the object that should not cast a shadow.


Now the Tag itself needs to be selected. Go to

Attribute Manager> Tag> Cast Shadow: un check.


BTW, this will not change Global Illumination.

All the best
