Hi Rafa,

A short explanation:

*sourcedata:* this is our application dictionary information. Things 
like ad_tables, ad_columns, ad_windows go here. This can be extended 
through modules (modules can add information here), and is updated on 
each Core update (through update.database).

*referenceddata:* this is information referenced by sourcedata, like 
ad_client, ad_org, ad_user, ad_language, or ad_role. The Openbravo 
database cannot be created without this information (the referencial 
integrity of the database would be compromised without it), and this 
explains why it is treated in a special way. It is not updated on each 
Core update.

*masterdata:* this is information which is not needed to create the 
database, but it's really convenient for every user, like contries, or 
currencies. This is also not updated on each Core update.

*sampledata* (smallbazaar, bigbazaar): this is sample information we 
provide for the users to test openbravo, and contains a new client, with 
its corresponding business information.

Hope it clears the issue a bit. Regards,

Antonio.
