Creating Custom Association Types
An association type describes a type of relationship that can exist between objects in the registry.
An association type has a name, a forward label (which describes the relationship of the source object to a target object) and an optional reverse label (which describes the relationship of the target object to the source object).
You use association types to define Relationship attributes in an asset type. In the following example, a Relationship attribute called “Managed By” has been included in the Project asset type to associate a project asset with the user that manages the project.
