Overview


Form Groups feature allows you to connect multiple forms across different products together for the ease of editing.  Updating one field connected into group will result in updating all other fields in this group. 

Form Item Groups feature lets you connect items within selection forms (ie dropdown boxes) across different products for the ease of editing. Updating one form item connected into group will result in updating all other items in this group.
