Export Schema

This feature allows you to export tables' metadata (database table schemas) used in the project, including the Description field, which provides a brief description of each specific field in the table. Tables can be exported in HTML, Markdown, or Drawio (http://diagrams.net) formats.

All options of the Export Schema feature can be found under Pricefx > Export Schema.

Now, you can view the structure of tables. Each table contains the Field Name, Label, en, Data Type, Required, and the Description column. Fields displayed in bold are primary keys.

  • en – The English translation of the label.

  • Required – If marked with an “x”, it means that the field is mandatory.

  • Description – A free-text description of the field. Currently supported in Products (P), Product Extensions (PX), Customers (C), Customer Extensions (CX), Company Parameters (LT) tables.
