New Commercial Services Section
We have now opened a commercial services section here on the forum for registered users. If you have a Fabrik project that you wish to have someone work on for you, post it under Help Wanted. If you are an application developer and wish to earn some money helping others, post your details under Fabrik Application Developers.
Both of these are unmoderated. It will be up to both parties to work out the details and come to an agreement.

Not entirely sure what exactly you've done... but maybe instead of "moving id to a new, different group" you should have left the id where it is and move the elements you want to be repeatable to a new, different group (all within the same list/form/etc, of course)?
Yes, with repeatable groups new database tables are created. That's necessary and done automatically by Fabrik.
BTW, having repeatable groups allows you to add multiple groups of element values to one and the same record/row in one and the same form. It does not let you add multiple records/rows to a list, if that's what you want. There is no out-of-the-box function for the latter, but you could use e.g. CSV import instead.

Not sure what you mean with
Add form = the form to add a record if you click the + button in list view?
Why do you think there's a + button inside this form?
You can use the repeat group feature @lousyfool mentioned to "fake" something like a multi-record add but in this case you need a dummy list and join it with "repeatable" to your list you want to add the records to (so you'll need an adddtional FK/parent_id element in your list)
But if you want to use Fabrik's more sophisticated, not out-of-the-box features you should know what you are doing, how Fabrik is handling one-to-many and many-to-many relations etc (e.g. a Fabrik created repeat group will create a new repeat group table which is needed for a one-to-many relation or you need a list join to do it with your own tables)
BTW:
As you seem to be starting with Fabrik: you've seen the discussion about Fabrik and Joomla4?
