The feature allows a researcher or more in general an authorized user or the administrator to add objects to a relation starting from the detail page of the target CRIS object. The "object" could be both a dspace items (publication, dataset, patent, etc.) than a CRIS Object (events, awards, projects, etc.). It is also possible to make available, for some or all the relations, the opposite action "remove". Below some  examples:

• Add publications to a project
• Add publications to a journal
• Add projects to a researcher
• Add events to a project

...

Which relations should offer this feature are configured  in the spring file cris-relationpreference.xml where one can also decide who (administrator, owner of the target or a policy managed groups) will have access to the feature and which discovery configuration apply to the search form.

The cris-relationpreference.xml file contains a bean RelationServiceConfiguration containing the list of all the relations that support such feature

<bean
		class="org.dspace.app.cris.configuration.RelationServiceConfiguration">
		<property name="list">
			<list>
