Hello all,
Hey, I was wondering if someone could send me a simple item relationship visual map.
Thanks,
Jeremy

Hello.
Let's suppose we have parts which are built from some other parts.
We may describe this as ItemType "Part" and RelationshipType "Part BOM".
Each instance of ItemType Part has id (property id) and number (property part_num).
Each instance of ItemType Part may refer to any number of another instances of ItemType Part via Part BOM relationships.
Part BOM RelationshipType has Part ItemType as source and as related.
Here is a picture to illustrate this:
(Note: each RelationshipType has corresponding ItemType with the same name)
