Main Page > User manual > UM-3 Add / edit content > UM-3.2 Add / edit authority records > UM-3.2.6 Relationships area
The relationships area contains fields for documenting relationships between the current entity and other corporate bodies, persons and/or families (ISAAR(CPF) 5.3).
- This information area will be implemented in ICA-AtoM 1.0.8, scheduled for release in October 2009.
1. To register a new relationship, click the add new link. ICA-AtoM opens a pop-up dialog box for data entry.
2. Name of related entity
- "Record the authorized form of name and any relevant unique identifiers, including the authority record identifier, for the related entity." (RS-2#5.3.1)
- If no authority record exists for the name, a new one will be created when the relationship is saved. If an authority record already exists, saving this relationship will link to the pre-existing authority record.
3. Category of relationship
- "Record a general category into which the relationship being described falls." (RS-2#5.3.2)
- Choose from associative, family, hierarchical and temporal in the drop-down menu. For descriptions and examples, see RS-2#5.3.2.
4. Description of relationship
- "Record a precise description of the nature of the relationship between the entity described in this authority record and the other related entity, e.g. superior agency, subordinate agency, owner, predecessor, husband, wife, son, cousin, teacher of, student of, professional colleague...A narrative description of the history and/or nature of the relationship may also be provided here." (RS-2#5.3.3)
5. Date / End date
- "Record when relevant the commencement date of the relationship or succession date and, when relevant, the cessation date of the relationship." (RS-2#5.3.2)
- Enter the start and end year of the date range.
- ICA-AtoM uses these values for sorting and searching purposes.
- If the start and end years are the same, enter only in the year field and leave the end year blank.
- Do not use any qualifiers here (e.g. "ca.") or typographical symbols (e.g. "[194?]") to express uncertainty (see step 4).
6. Date display
- Enter the date range as you want it to appear in view mode.
- Add any additional text to qualify date range (e.g. "ca. 1940-1980" or "[1940]-1980, predominant 1973-1980").
