In security, we can define users and groups as shown in previous how tos. In addition we can define relationships between users.
Using relationships we can define:
  | | Line management hierarchy; |
  | | Current project manager assignments; |
  | | HR representives for each staff member; |
  | | etc. |
Relationships therefore provide a flexible way to express common organisational structures.
In this example we will start by building up a line management hierarchy on the users defined in
user management. Then we will introduce a new relationship type, "Project management", and assign some users as project managers.
