Optionality

The Optionality section lets you specify whether a relationship is optional or mandatory. For example, you could require that all Document objects have a related Writer object but not require that all Document objects have a related Illustrator object. When you attempt to save an object that has a mandatory relationship that is not set (so the relationship is null), Enterprise Objects refuses the save and displays an error message stating that the object being saved has a mandatory relationship that must be set.
