Available on

The field Available on supports inheritance from the parent term. Suppose you have a product category “Computers & Accessories” and it has child categories “Desktops”, and “Laptops”. If you select “Computers & Accessories” as the location of the form then the child categories also inherit the form.

If you want to show a different form for “Desktops” then you need to create another form and set this category as the location of the form.
