Criteria to display Related List after Groups Tab:
1. TableA.published =true and TableA.Application ID==TableB.Application ID.
2. On The Related list, Display a New button. whenever a new record inserted on TableB, display a Parent value=Application ID this for the Reporting.

Hi,
You can create your own relation between these two tables by navigating to System Definition > Relationships
After created, add this as a related list by opening a record and select: Configure > Related Lists

By following the documentation (link I provided) you can create a custom relation, that does not require a reference relation. But you must write the query on how to relate the tables.
