Relation inputs

Relation or link input is a powerful type that allows to connect two records that are related. Relations input is dropdown in nature but special.

For example, when you have customers group/form that captures customer name and you have a sales group/form that captures customer sales and would like to record customer name for each sale, you will then add the customer name field in the sales form. All customers that are listed in the customer group will be accessible in the customer name field in sales form.
