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.

Thanks for the info Antonio.

And what is the difference between src-db/database/sourcedata/referencedData content and referencedata/standard/Masterdata.xml file content [1]?

Thanks.

Hi,

There has been a change in export.database. From now on, the dataset
ADRD (which contains tables such as AD_USER, AD_CLIENT, or AD_LANGUAGE,
which are filled during the initial database creation process but are
not updated during Openbravo ERP upgrades) will not be exported by
default. If you want to export their data, you need to specify the
-Drd=true option in export.database:

ant export.database -Drd=true

As part of this change, the xml data files related to these tables has
been moved from plan src-db/database/sourcedata to the new folder
src-db/database/sourcedata/referencedData.

This change is only relevant to Openbravo Core developers, not to module
developers, as modules cannot modify the content of these tables by
normal means (ie., they need to create a dataset for it, and this works
as usual).

Regards,

Antonio Moreno.
