      Description

      I found this bug on 4.4.5 and replicated on the 4.5 sandbox.

      To replicate:

      • Create a relationship type where one of the contact types is a contact subtype (e.g. Student of/Teacher of - Contact A is "Individual - Student" and Contact B is "Individual").
      • If you create a relationship from a Student record, "Teacher Of" is not available as a relationship type - even though a student is also an individual.

      The practical implication is that if you have two students in a student/teacher relationship - you can only create the relationship from the student's record and not the teacher's record.
