Hi Jae,

Sure:

  • the yellow wheel indicates that the field is a calculated field (populated by transforming/calculating data from other fields)
  • the red "!" means that the field is mandatory, can't be a null value
  • the square icon indicates that this is a container, i.e. a group of fields, usually used for addresses
