Relationships table
The following tables show how objects may be related to other objects by creating a relationship in the Relationships tab for that object.
RACI relationships can additionally be assigned to resources in the object's primary (left-most) tab.
Where supported (see the table below), both tree items and recently viewed breadcrumb entries can be drag and dropped to the Relationships page to create relationships
Simple relationships (Symmetrical)
This table can be read left to right, or right to left, depending on which relationship you are interested in

-
Responsible: Performs the work, or responsible for doing the work.
-
Accountable: Supervises the work, accountable for the work being done.
-
Consulted: Helps perform the work, consulted on how to do the work.
-
