NameDescription
Load & Save Binder
Load Binder  allows you to customize the method for data retrieval to populate the list grid in the form.
 Save Binder  allows you to customize the method on how the list grid row records are saved to.
This option is empty by default. An empty binder means that the list grid records will be saved/loaded as a JSON format in the parent form & database table. See the list of available  Form Binders.
The recommended binder to use is the  Multirow Form Binder  so that each record is saved into a child database table via a subform definition. The binder will update the foreign key "parent id" into each child record to point to the parent database table.
