Relationship

This page describes the relationship formfield. For informations on how to use the relationship formfields visit this page!

The relationship formfield is a powerful tool to display, search, select, add and even edit related items.

It gets even more powerful when your related model contains a BREAD. This way you can select lists for browsing your relationship and views for adding more items directly on the same page.
