You can only customize the layout of the Master record by setup the custom template of the "Master Record Page", but cannot update the template of the detail page.

Almost in my web applications, I have been implementing this wizard-base, by using the following steps:

  1. First step, display only a single Add form/page of Master table,
  2. After that Master record is successfully saved, then redirect to the Detail grid-add table, where the Master record is included in the top section
  3. So, when end-users decided not to complete enter all the detail records, they can cancel it, and continue this process for sometime in future.
  4. By using this technique, then always make sure the Master record already exists, before continueing to the next step.

Is this still true for v2024?
