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. 🙂
