Besides linking to new and existing artifacts, you can
add a placeholder links to artifact elements. A placeholder link does
not have a specified target, but you can use it as a quick way to
capture relationship information that is not fully defined.
Procedure
- Open a non-document artifact, such as a business process
diagram, a use-case diagram, or a user interface sketch.
- Select an element, such as a business process task, a use
case, a user interface element, or a glossary term, and then click
the Link to other artifacts icon.

- In the Links window, type a name for
the new link in the Link Description field.
- Press Enter to save the link, and
end the procedure.
What to do next
You can specify a target for the link later by using the
Edit
Link option in the Links window or when attempting to
navigate to the link.
