Component relationship properties (General tab)
Use the General tab to view, modify, or access the following properties and action.
- Class
- The class or subclass of the component relationship object.
- Parent Document
- The name of the parent document associated with the component relationship object.
- Child Document
- The name of the child document associated with the component relationship object.
- Link Type
- The type of component relationship object link. The possible values are:
- External - A static link to an external document.
- Static - This link binds a specific parent document to a specific child document.
- Dynamic - This link binds a specific parent document to a child document if the component relationship object is defined to point to the latest version (current) or the latest major version (released) of the child document.
- Dynamic Label - This link binds a specific parent document to a child document if the component relationship object is defined to point to the latest version (current) or the latest major version (released) of the child document, and whether its value matches the value of the label property of the child document.
- Binding Label Value
- The binding label value of the child document. If this property has a Choice List attached to it, Enterprise Manager displays a button to the right of the Binding Label Value field. You can click this button to access the Choice List and select a value for the binding label.
- Bind to Version
- The bind to version value determines the version type that the component relationship object link binds to. The possible values are:
- Current - This link binds to the latest major or minor version of the document.
- Released - This link binds to the latest major version of the document.
- Delete child document when parent is deleted
- Select this check box to ensure that the deletion of any parent document results in the deletion of all of its associated child documents.
- Prevent Delete
- Use the drop-down list box to define whether or how a document can be deleted.
- Order Value
- The value that determines the order of the component relationship object links. A default value is assigned to the new link that is 1000 more than the last link for the associated parent. This enables you to manually adjust the order of a link without having to update other links.

- This option enables you to copy all of the component relationship object links associated with a parent document, when a new version of that document is checked out.
