There are two directions of traversal when hopping an Asymmetric Reflexive Association.

Given an instance of Waypoint in the example above, we can look for the previous visit or the next visit. In addition to the Relationship name (Rnum) a Perspective must be specified.

To get the next visit, for example, you would do this in Scrall where the local instance supplies a reference to itself implicitly as an initial Single Instance Flow:

next waypoint visit .= /R5/next
