Core banking schema template

Customers, accounts, double-entry transactions, cards, loans and statements for a retail bank or fintech. This data model has 8 tables and 36 columns, joined by 7 relationships. FlowDiagram draws it as an entity-relationship diagram with crow's-foot notation.

How to use this ER diagram template

  1. Click Open in the editor. The ER diagram opens on a new page in FlowDiagram — nothing is uploaded and there is no sign-up.
  2. Rename, add or delete shapes and drag them where you want; connectors stay attached as things move.
  3. Drop in vendor logos from the library — 1,160 of them, including every AWS, Azure and Google Cloud service icon — or restyle it with the colour and theme controls.
  4. Prefer text? Edit the SQL DDL below and paste it in through ☰ → Import / export SQL; the finished model exports back to DDL.
  5. Export to PNG, SVG or PDF, or press Ctrl+L for a link that carries the whole diagram.
