Clicking on the menu item will take you to the list of Relationships currently set up on the system, if there are any. Relationships are one of the lists that can be specified on pre-implementation spreadsheets (the initial data for your system, provided to Charitylog at the very start of implementation)_ so it is likely that there will be some options here.
