Dependency relationships, on the other hand, illustrate that an element depends on another. This is the case for resources: an application runs on a server and is thus dependent on it in order to function. Additionally, dependency relationships can exist between different types of master data: if an application is provided by an external service provider, it depends on that supplier. If the employees of an organizational unit use an application, the organizational unit depends on the application. Dependency relationships are always depicted as arrows, with the element that depends on another pointing to the element that it needs in order to function.
