Node Custom Label in Tree View

The Node Custom Label feature allows you to rename relationship nodes in the Tree View with business-specific terminology instead of using default system labels. This helps organizations present relationship data in a way that aligns with their processes, improves clarity for users, and creates a more intuitive tree view structure.

For example, a default node label like “Contacts” can be renamed to “Customer”, making it easier for CRM users to understand who the related records represent. After applying the custom label, the Tree View updates instantly, displaying new node names across all relevant branches—as shown in the final image.

Steps to Configure Node Custom Label in Tree View

1. Open Entity Configuration

Go to: Settings → Map My Relationships App -> Entity Configurations → Open the required relationship record (e.g., contact_customer_contacts as shown in the second image)

2. Locate the Node Custom Label Settings

Under the General tab, find the section titled Node Label.

3. Enable Node Custom Label

Set Use Node Custom Label to Yes. (This activates the custom label functionality.)

4. Enter Your Preferred Label

In the Node Custom Label field, type the label you want to display—for example: Customer

This label will replace the system-generated label in the Tree View.

5. Save the Configuration

Click Save or Save & Close to apply your changes.

6. View the Updated Label in Tree View

Return to the Tree View, and you will see the updated node label - for example: Customer (2) instead of Contacts (2). (as shown in the final screenshot).

Result

Your Tree View now displays customized, business-appropriate node labels, making relationship data easier to understand and navigate across the organization.
