Multi step form with c# MVC5, related tables

I've read several articles and stackoverflow posts regarding multi step forms in ASP.net MVC5 C#, but nothing is providing the answer I need. The most intuitive was from this site: http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/UploadFile/4b0136/getting-started-with-wizard-in-Asp-Net-mvc-5-part-1/

The issue is, it's not addressing the whole reason I'm splitting up this form into multiple steps. I used EF DB first and backed the database into my Visual Studio project. So I have my model classes built already based on that. Now I need the multi step form that will honor the relationships I've setup in my database.

More specifically, in step 1 I want the user to add the product name, the product type, and the product delivery date. That part I have setup. Then when that's submitted I want the application to move to step 2 where, based on the product type, the user will enter the base type (related to product type), and product derivates (related to product type).

Please help!

I'd like to avoid that if possible. Trying to get the best understanding I can using .net c#. I also need to hand this off to another group that avoids jquery, angular, etc.

are you using any scripting languages like angular js?
