What resources are available to trace the connections from the Gemara to the Halachic codifications and the reverse? For example, how can someone learning Daf Yomi find the related Halachic rulings in the Shulchan Aruch that were based on that particular page of Talmud, and how would someone studying Mishneh Torah find the source in the Gemara?
Answer
The Be'er HaGolah (printed next to the Shulchan Aruch) gives all the sources as listed in Tur/BY. The Biur HaGra gives more thorough sources than the Be'er HaGolah, so you should probably use that one.
There is also, of course, the Ein Mishpat, if you want to go the other way around (Gemara to poskim). It's found at the top of the outer margin of each daf, and it's referenced by k'tav ashurit letters throughout the text of the Gemara.
