Lock Child Form to be created from Parent Form ONLY

When using child forms, even though they are set up to be created form a specific parent form, the system still displays the child forms in the Forms Menu. This means that child forms can be created as standalone forms and completed with no possibility rectify this and associate them to the parent once they have been raised.

This could be rectified in 2 ways, which ever is easier to implement:

  1. Add a tick box option named Child Form on Form Templates which will make this form template not visible as a selection in the Forms Menu

  2. Allow child forms to be linked/associated to a parent form even after they have been created. Even if this means they will not be created from the Form Action, just the option to link it to their parent form would help us massively!
