Many-to-many inter-table relationships allow defining connections between the entries of any two tables, with specifying the relationship type other than "one-to-one".

For example, the User and the Group tables may contain many records about users and groups accordingly. A user may be in more than one group, and a group may include many users, so, in this case, these two tables have to be bound as shown below:

The many-to-many table is a table describing how two tables are linked with each other. You can find a typical example of such a linkage on the screenshot below:

  1. Navigate to M2M → Create M2M table.
