Create References

Creating a reference establishes a link between two documents so that they can be found together, the effect of a revision can be traced, and the origins of derivative or replacement documents can be traced.

Note:

Meridian does not support circular references. That is, any combination of documents that, when referenced to one another, create a circular path.
