Hi Natu, The way Mifos schema has been designed, we divide it into various entities like center, group, client, loan, savings etc. But to capture custom fields against each of these entities, the database tables are same. So, in order to find out the custom field against a specific entity instance, there is a field entity_id in the question_group_instance table. This entity_id can serve the role of either center_id, group_id, client_id or account_id at a time. In order to find what id it is (among these), please consider the foreign key field event_source_id in the same table which is primary key of table event_sources. Looking in that table, you will clearly know with what event the related custom field is associated. :)
I hope you understood my point.

Hi, All, We are using the new feature of Mifos 2.1 of question groups to better streamline and adapt client custom paper forms to MIFOS. I need to use some of this information within question groups in some critical operational reports, and i would like some guidance. For instance if i have a debit account number as a question within a question group(ex. Question Group Details) that is associated to a create loan operation. I am studying the latest SchemaSpy and getting a bit lost on it. I could find so far the question related tables and understand it, because the naming and relationship is somewhat intuitive (Question, Question Groups, Sections, Instances), but i start to get a bit lost when i come across the concept of entity_id, event_source_id and really don't find a clear way to map it to a specific loan, client, etc....
