Because you must have at least one lookup from another table to that one.

E.g :

Table 'Employees' :
List of fields :
ID => auto
Name => texbox (default type of field)
Surname => texbox (default type of field)
Address => texbox (default type of field)
Office => lookup field to the table "Office"

Table 'Office'

ID => auto
Name => textbox (default type of field)
Location or Address => textbox (default type of field)
Free area => textbox (default type of field)

The creation of parent/children link is automatic and made by Appgini once you've created a link to one field (or 2) of this table from another table.
