Hi,
I'm a xcart5 newbie. Trying to create a module related to order. I want to execute sql query when my module is installed. In xcart4 there is an option in admin backend to execute sql query.
My requirement is - i need to add new column to order table. In xcart4, I can execute sql query. What about xcart5? Can I add it in install.yaml and execute that query?

YAML files are for data only.

To alter the structure you should "decorate" existing PHP classes.
