In this blog, you will learn how to create and view custom ARC Relationship Graphs in Salesforce Financial Services Cloud (FSC) using the new Graph Designer. Relationship Graphs in the Actionable Relationship Center (ARC) provide a powerful way for advisors and bankers to visualize client relationships, household structures, and account connections in a clear, interactive format. With the Graph Designer, you can customize card names, display fields, and actions to make navigation seamless and ensure advisors have the right context during client interactions.
You’ll also discover how to build more than one graph per object, tailor graphs to different page layouts, and show customer relationship data based on user profiles. This step-by-step guide will walk you through building a custom graph—from selecting templates to configuring properties, nodes, and relationships—so you can design a visualization that improves customer engagement and strengthens relationship management.
