This requires creating an explicit Parent/Child relationship.  To do this, a Child table would have a Ref column to the Parent table to point to the associated parent row.  In the configuration of this Parent Ref column inside the Child table, you would turn on the "Is part of" property.  This creates a tightly coupled relationship and does 2 additional things as opposed to an implicit Parent/Child relationship:

  1. Automatically adds the Related Children table into the Parent entry Form to allow adding of child rows. I.e. a New button when tapped opens the Child entry Form.
  2. When a Parent is deleted, all of the associated children are deleted as well.

I hope this helps!
