Systems and methods are provided to define an object within an object-relationship map. Relationship information about a relationship between a plurality of objects is used to generate and display an object-relationship map. The object-relationship map may include a graphical representation having nodes corresponding to the objects, and a node connection corresponding to the object relationship. A definition status of an object representing whether the object is definable is indicated by a state of a visual indicator associated with the node corresponding to that object. In response to an indication by the visual indicator state of a node that a corresponding at least one of the objects is definable, a user input indicating interaction with a node is received and responsive to the node interaction, a definition interface, e.g., a pop-up window, is provided to receive object information defining the one or more objects.
