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.). Below some examples:
- Add publications to a project
- Add publications to a journal
- Add projects to a researcher
- Add events to a project
The following screen show the public page of a sample project
when an authorized user is loggedin, an add relation button appear in the component
this is also true when the relations is empty (please note that empty components are NOT shown in the public page)
Once the user click on the Add relations button a configurable search form is presented
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.
