The Panel control in the System Center 2012 – Service Manager Authoring Tool is a Layout control that helps you manage a group of related controls. Typically, you drag and position several controls that have a related purpose on the form on a panel control. Then, if you need to move the controls that are on the panel, instead of moving each control individually, you can simply move the Panel control.

Use the following procedure to add a Panel control to a form.
