Many services in Aptify include sub-type listings that contain additional information about a particular record. See Using the " Sub-Type Listing" section in the Forms and Records chapter of the Aptify 5.5 User Guide for Tab Listing for more information.

If a sub-type supports In Place Editing, the In Place Editing icon appears in the sub-type toolbar, as shown below. The procedure for editing records in place within a sub-type listing is the same as for editing records in place within a view. Note that any changes you make to the sub-type records are saved when you save and close the top level record.
