Why must I Attach a Third Party palette when using Omni Menu?

Why must I Attach a Third Party palette when using Omni Menu? Due to an additional Product ID field not being in the SY_Palette_MSTR table, it is not possible to identify automatically which entries in the table are associated with what Third Party palette form. You can create this relationship in Omni Menu using the Attach feature. Once the association is created, it is used by Omni Menu and Omni Security to access the palette via the “By Toolbar” view.
