Adding data to a list of things direct to the database

I want to add an Expense Category and its list of Subcategories direct to the database. If I add a category the list of subcategories field is blank.

If I go to the subcategory first the category does not exist. How do I add this data manually without saving it through a workflow??

We don’t support this currently.

I noticed the same thing. When you dynamically add to a list, you have to do it in-app. For any other “straight” inputs I encountered so far, you can update from the backend.

If you’d like to be able to do customer service you need to create the backend functionality. Then it’s “backend” but still in-app.
