The reportCtrl should be shared between all seven, though I don't know if I 
set it up correctly. I'm kind of new to ui-router so some of this is still 
magic to me. From what I can tell I just define the controller option in 
the object I pass to the state as the same and it should be sharing the 
variables. Though when I update part of the form and then move to another 
state and try to display that ng-model that was updated I don't see 
anything, and if I go back to the original state it just defaults to the 
default state for the ng-model in question.

Hope that makes sense.
