Master Properties of Group Members
A common table may contain a master value for a certain property of all group members. The group monitors the common table for changes, and when changes are detected, the group rewrites a certain property for all group members according to the contents of the common table. This is easy, because the various property values of a context are represented by a Data Table, just like the common table.
In this scenario, the common table isn't created from scratch by adding fields and records. Rather, it has to be created using the Create Common Table from Variable action, which takes the value of a user-specified context variable and creates a new common table with the same format and contents.
The common table's Format must match (or extend) the format of the property which master value it contains. So it must contain all fields defined for that property, but may also contain additional fields. The common table's name must be the same as the name of the linked property -- this allows the group to find this common table and propose it to be used.
