It is incredibly difficult to find documentation on tables, lists, queries, and fields. Particularly for the non-developers who want to build Power BI (or similar) reports. CTRL-ALT-F1 is incredibly helpful, but not inclusive. It would also be helpful to know if a field is a “system” field and therefore not available on reports. 


Some of the lists are so similarly named, that it can be difficult to understand which to use. I’ve noticed that with fields too. Many fields are named the same but contain different data in related tables.

Thank you for logging this idea. It is a known gap and an area we would like to improve, and in fact, there is currently work going on prototyping a much improved documentation of the application. This will not be available for the 2022 release wave 1 at launch, but hopefully either in a minor or for 2022 release wave 2 launch. 

In the meantime, please continue voting for this.
