#About this guide
Generated from BSuit’s data model on the date shown under “Seen on a running system”. Field names, types and lengths come from the model itself. References are inferred from field names (a field called “Ledger Id” is treated as pointing to Ledger); the model does not declare relationships, so an inferred link can occasionally be wrong or missing.
