    Trying to explain something to a client, but I don’t know if this term exists.

    Is there a term for a Parent table and all of its dependent children tables?

    Something along the lines of a data warehouse?

    Parent – child is correct, or possibly master – detail.

    Don’t think there’s a single term. What’s wrong with just describing it as an table and all it’s related child tables (if indeed they are children and not just related tables)?

    A hierarchy?
    A table and all its descendants?

    Draw it. That’ll help. 🙂
