Create a Child Input View

Child Input views contain data that relates to the parent view. For example, if the Parent Input view contains an Address field, in the Child Input view, you can link a Comments field so that others can enter comments about the address.

Interacting with Child Input views is identical to interacting with other Input views (for example, adding components). To view child input data, see View Child Data.

Child views can be created for Details views and Delete views, as well. For additional information about views, see Views.
