# Configure relationship types for an entity record in Investigative Case Management

As an admin, you can add or remove relationship types used to classify the relationship between two entities in a case.

## About this task

For more information about relating entities to a case, see [Add entities to an investigative case](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/government-industry/psds-using-icm-add-entities.md).

## Before you begin

Role required: admin

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **Task Relationships** > **Relationship Types**.

2.  Select **New**.

3.  On the form, fill in the fields.

4.  Select **Submit**.


## Result

The relationship type definition is now created, and will display in the relationship type dropdown menu when an investigator moves to associate an entity to a case, or an entity to an entity.

## What to do next

An investigator can use this relationship type to define the relationship between an entity record and a case, or between two entities. For more information on how to link entities to a case, see [Associate and link evidence to entities](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/government-industry/psds-using-icm-associate-evidence-entities.md).
