Relationships describe the affiliation between two business entities. The MDM Hub supports one-to-many and many-to-many relationships between business entities, in addition to hierarchical relationships between records in the same business entity. If a user role has the necessary permissions, the user can view, add, edit, and manage relationships between a business entity and the records related to the business entity.
You configure the many-to-many relationships in the Provisioning tool. You design the
Data Director
user interface layout and create a record view. Add a Related Records component to view the records that directly relate to the record that is open in the record view.
You can add standard and custom related records components to a record view. Use the standard Related Records (View Mode) component to view the records directly related to an open record. Use the custom Related Records (Edit Mode) component to view, add, edit, and delete the relationships between an open record and other records.
