The latest DataCite Schema version 4.4 added the RelatedItem property. It is in some way an extended version of RelatedIdentifier with additional attributes. Now, I became aware that it actually may be beneficial to use RelatedItem instead of or additional to RelatedIdentifier in the publication metadata. But in order to do that, we would need two more attributes in RelatedIdentifier in the ICAT schema:
Field
Type
Description
relatedItemType
String[255]
The type of the related item
title
String[255]
Title or name of the related item
(Obviously, the names are subject to discussion, we could for instance also put relatedItemTitle. For now, I just retained to corresponding property names from DataCite.)
