<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">There is a section in the ASpace user manual suggesting ways to relate accessions to each other (see

https://docs.archivesspace.org/Default.htm#LinkRelatedAccession.htm%3FTocPath%3DManaging%2520Accessions%2520%7C_____23</a>). The whole/part relationship is unique to this relationship, whereas the sibling relationship is somewhat duplicative of the accession
/ resource relationship. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hello,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It’s also not clear to us if there’s a specific way one should use the “Related accessions” field within an accession—unlike “Related resources,” which I take is meant to be used when linking a spawned resource.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If there’s documentation spelling out how this field should be used, or if any of you have local practices you can share, I would appreciate it.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Best,<o:p></o:p></p>
