Cycle Detection for Documents

Cycle Detection for Documents

Documents can be included into other Documents.

Again and again it happens that this way relationship loops are created.

This loop is only detected because the computation of the project- and document-metrics crash (because of an infinite loop).

 

Relationship fields have the Option "Cycle Detection" in order to prevent relationship loops from occurring.

Unfortunately this does not work to prevent relationship loops with included Documents.

 

A Cycle Detection for Documents would be helpful.

We found the same issue. We ended up changing the daily metrics script to specifically handle recursively included documents.
