Conditional branching improves user adaptation, minimizes data entry errors significantly increasing data quality.
Relationship attributes are helpful when you need to create and display information about the relationship itself. For example, a project member can play a different role in different projects. Another example; a student can get a different grade in different classes.
You can make relationship attributes required and/or set initial and default values of them to enforce your business rules.
A relationship attribute can simply be displayed in its corresponding relationship views using its tag.
