Documentation

Definition

A relationship type can be reversible.

Use

A reversible relationship can be created if the relationship concerned is one-way.
Two data records can be created with the same two objects with only the source and destination switched.

Dependencies

If the Reversible indicator is not set, a check is performed to ensure that two relationships are not created with the same two objects.

Example

Product 1 is the destination object of product 2. Product 1 is, for example, an accessory of product 2.

If the relationship type is not reversible, product 2 cannot be an accessory of product 1.
