Documents can be linked to records referred to as "parent records." You can create a
document version and reference it through a parent record. You can also view, edit, download, or
delete document references in the parent record.  
Hinweis:  
The terms "other record" and "parent record" are used interchangeably and refer to any records
to which documents are linked.

You can use references to link a document record to any other table or record on the
platform.
