+## Database Entities Overview
+
+### Core Entities
+
+1. **Applicant** - Represents individuals applying for licenses
+   - Unique: digilockerId, email, walletAddress
+   - Relations: OneToMany with LicenseRequest
+
+2. **Department** - Represents government departments handling approvals
+   - Unique: code, walletAddress
+   - Relations: OneToMany with Approval, OneToMany with Webhook
+
+3. **Workflow** - Defines multi-stage approval workflows
+   - Unique: workflowType
+   - Contains: stages, rules, and requirements
+   - Relations: OneToMany with LicenseRequest
+
+4. **LicenseRequest** - Main entity for license applications
+   - Unique: requestNumber
+   - Status: DRAFT, SUBMITTED, IN_REVIEW, PENDING_RESUBMISSION, APPROVED, REJECTED, REVOKED, CANCELLED
+   - Relations: ManyToOne Applicant, ManyToOne Workflow, OneToMany Document, OneToMany Approval, OneToOne WorkflowState
+
+### Document Management
+
+5. **Document** - Represents uploaded documents for a request
+   - Tracks: filename, version, hash, minio bucket location
+   - Relations: ManyToOne LicenseRequest, OneToMany DocumentVersion
+
+6. **DocumentVersion** - Audit trail for document changes
+   - Tracks: version number, hash, file size, mime type, uploader
+   - Ensures: (documentId, version) uniqueness
+
+### Approval & Workflow
+
+7. **Approval** - Records department approvals
+   - Status: PENDING, APPROVED, REJECTED, CHANGES_REQUESTED, REVIEW_REQUIRED
+   - Tracks: remarks, reviewed documents, blockchain tx hash
+   - Can be invalidated with reason
+
+8. **WorkflowState** - Tracks execution state of workflow
+   - Current stage, completed stages, pending approvals
+   - Full execution log with timestamps and details
+   - OneToOne relationship with LicenseRequest
+
+### Webhooks & Audit
+
+9. **Webhook** - Department webhook configurations
+   - Stores: URL, events to listen for, secret hash
+   - Relations: OneToMany with WebhookLog
+
+10. **WebhookLog** - Audit trail for webhook deliveries
+    - Status: PENDING, SUCCESS, FAILED
+    - Tracks: response status, body, response time, retry count
+
+11. **AuditLog** - Comprehensive audit trail
+    - Tracks: entity changes, actor, old/new values
+    - Stores: IP address, user agent, correlation ID
+    - Index optimization for queries by entity type and actor
+
+### Blockchain Integration
+
+12. **BlockchainTransaction** - NFT minting and on-chain operations
+    - Types: MINT_NFT, APPROVAL, DOC_UPDATE, REJECT, REVOKE
+    - Status: PENDING, CONFIRMED, FAILED
+    - Tracks: tx hash, block number, gas used, error messages
+
+## Environment Variables
+
+Set the following in your `.env` file:
+
+```env
+# Database Connection
+DB_HOST=localhost
+DB_PORT=5432
+DB_USERNAME=postgres
+DB_PASSWORD=your_password
+DB_NAME=goa_gel_db
+NODE_ENV=development
+```
+
+## Setup Instructions
+
+### 1. Install Dependencies
+
+```bash
+npm install typeorm pg uuid crypto
+```
+
+### 2. Create Database
+
+```bash
+# Using PostgreSQL client
+createdb goa_gel_db
+
+# Or using Docker
+docker run --name goa_gel_postgres \
+  -e POSTGRES_DB=goa_gel_db \
+  -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=your_password \
+  -p 5432:5432 \
+  -d postgres:15-alpine
+```
+
+### 3. Run Migrations
+
+```bash
+# Run all pending migrations
+npx typeorm migration:run -d src/database/data-source.ts
+
+# Generate a new migration (auto-detects schema changes)
+npx typeorm migration:generate -d src/database/data-source.ts -n YourMigrationName
+
+# Revert last migration
+npx typeorm migration:revert -d src/database/data-source.ts
+```
+
+### 4. Seed Database with Sample Data
+
+```bash
+# Run the seed script
+npx ts-node src/database/seeders/seed.ts
+```
+
+After seeding, you'll have:
+- 4 sample departments (Fire, Tourism, Municipal, Health)
+- 1 RESORT_LICENSE workflow with 5 stages
+- 2 sample applicants
+- 1 license request in DRAFT status with workflow state
+
+### 5. Verify Setup
+
+```bash
+# Connect to the database
+psql goa_gel_db
+
+# List tables
+\dt
+
+# Check migrations table
+SELECT * FROM typeorm_migrations;
+
+# Exit
+\q
+```

+AuditLog - tracks all changes to core entities
+BlockchainTransaction - records all on-chain operations
+```
+
+## Key Features
+
+### Indexes for Performance
+- All frequently queried columns are indexed
+- Composite indexes for common query patterns
+- JSONB columns for flexible metadata storage
+
+### Cascade Operations
+- DELETE cascades properly configured
+- Orphaned records cleaned up automatically
+
+### Audit Trail
+- Every change tracked in audit_logs
+- Actor type and ID recorded
+- Old/new values stored for analysis
+- IP address and user agent captured
+
+### Blockchain Integration
+- All critical operations can be recorded on-chain
+- Transaction status tracking
+- Error handling with rollback support
+
+### Workflow State Management
+- Execution log with full history
+- Pending approvals tracking
+- Stage transition audit trail
+- Extensible for complex workflows
+
+## Common Queries
+
+### Get all license requests for an applicant
+```sql
+SELECT lr.* FROM license_requests lr
+WHERE lr.applicantId = $1
+ORDER BY lr.createdAt DESC;
+```
+
+### Get pending approvals for a department
+```sql
+SELECT a.* FROM approvals a
+WHERE a.departmentId = $1 AND a.status = 'PENDING'
+ORDER BY a.createdAt ASC;
+```
+
+### Get audit trail for a specific request
+```sql
+SELECT al.* FROM audit_logs al
+WHERE al.entityType = 'REQUEST' AND al.entityId = $1
+ORDER BY al.createdAt DESC;
+```
+
+### Get blockchain transaction status
+```sql
+SELECT bt.* FROM blockchain_transactions bt
+WHERE bt.relatedEntityId = $1
+ORDER BY bt.createdAt DESC;
+```
+
+## Maintenance
+
+### Backup Database
+```bash
+pg_dump goa_gel_db > backup_$(date +%Y%m%d_%H%M%S).sql
+```
+
+### Restore Database
+```bash
+psql goa_gel_db < backup_file.sql
+```
+
+### Monitor Performance
+```sql
+-- Check table sizes
+SELECT schemaname, tablename, pg_size_pretty(pg_total_relation_size(schemaname||'.'||tablename))
+FROM pg_tables
+WHERE schemaname NOT IN ('pg_catalog', 'information_schema')
+ORDER BY pg_total_relation_size(schemaname||'.'||tablename) DESC;
+
+-- Check slow queries
+SELECT query, calls, mean_time FROM pg_stat_statements
+ORDER BY mean_time DESC LIMIT 10;
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Connection Issues
+- Verify PostgreSQL service is running
+- Check DB_HOST, DB_PORT, DB_USERNAME, DB_PASSWORD
+- Ensure database exists: `createdb goa_gel_db`
+
+### Migration Issues
+- Check TypeORM synchronize is false in production
+- Ensure migrations run in correct order
+- Validate SQL syntax in migration files
+
+### Seeding Issues
+- Drop existing data: `npx typeorm schema:drop -d src/database/data-source.ts`
+- Re-run migrations and seed
+- Check console output for specific errors
+
