Description

The Relationship Service manages and documents the relationships between and among object, procedural, and organizational records.

There will often be one main entity service, and then a set of relation services. The relation services are generally grouped with the main entity, and should be described there. E.g., for a Person service, a Person-to-Person relationship mapping would also be described. Where to put things will be a judgment call. E.g., for Contact info, the Person-Contact relation and the Organization-Contact relation services probably belong with the Contact service, but should perhaps be mentioned in Person and Organization, respectively.

Assumptions

Try to be explicit and exhaustive, but not pedantic.
- Patrick Schmitz (Unlicensed): If there is an active discussion or comment, you may want to call it out as a sub-bullet. This example also uses a color macro to call it out, and provides a link to a given user to indicate that this is a particular contributor's position.

Subtopic

More assumptions around peripheral subject
