Verknüpfungen auflösen

English translation: resolve the links

German term or phrase: Verknüpfungen auflösen
I'm having problems trying to find a suitable translation for "aufloesen". The context here is:
"Außerdem kann es auf Grund der Vielzahl von Objekttypen, die der DRB in mySAP ERP unterstützt, zu Laufzeitproblemen bei der Ermittlung der Verknüpfungen kommen, da das Programm versucht, alle Verknüpfungen aufzulösen, obwohl der Benutzer in der Regel nicht alle Objekttypen benötigt."
I don't know whether if this means to "resolve", "break down", "explode" a link, not that I like any of these translations. ;-) Any ideas?

English translation:resolve the links
Explanation:
This is called 'resolving the links,' meaning that it wants to figure out where the different links actually point.
