Handling create related record/feature directly from Manager app

[azizaparveen]

Describe requirements

We need to think about how we can handle related record/feature directly from Manager app. Here are some ideas came from Chris and Sarah

1. We can make it easier to connect parent feature from the related record/feature
2. Restrict related table/layer visibility as an independent table/layer

I am leaning towards restricting related table to show as independent that can be navigated to Chris I remember you talking about this that since we can add related records through parent record, adding the capability to create new record in related table is redundant and may need more work on the development side. I agree with your opinion.

Please let me know your thoughts on this

@azizaparveen, My opinion would be that we don't do anything special for related tables in this regard. Instead I think we should implement the feature described in this issue: https://devtopia.esri.com/WebGIS/arcgis-template-configuration/issues/4721.

If we implement that feature users can choose to disable related tables from showing in the dropdown and as a result not allow them to view, edit or created records in the table directly, only add or edit via their parent record. This is the approach I would take.

Leaving it as is, would be consistent with the Map Viewer as well.
