Related objects are objects that are the destination objects in collections of relationships that have delete propagation flag turned on.
A relationship that has delete propagation flag turned on is called a containment relationship. Propagation will continue until a class object is reached that has no containment relationships.
Most of the DIM relationships are containment relationships. See the following figure:
Figure 18: Containment Relationships
For example, if you change the security profile of a database named Customer and select the Propagate to all Related Objects check box, the security profile will be set in the Customer database object and all Tables, Columns, Views, and so on, associated with that database.
