From a technical standpoint, there is nothing stopping you from populating
any field within any table in Optigold. It would just require a little
knowledge of FileMaker (and specifically CDML). And a little tweaking of
the default web security databases that come with Optigold.

What you may want to do to save yourself some development work is do it with
two different HTTP requests... one that uses Optigold's built in online
signup stuff. Then a second one that updates that new customer record's
broadband info fields. That way you can use the wrappers I already made so
you don't have to worry about the invoicing, indexing, etc. Then just use
the -Edit function within CDML to edit that record's broadband fields.
