-### Fields names vs Column names
+#### Non Database Fields
+
+Note that if you need a normal pydantic field in your model (used to store value on model or pass around some value) you can define a 
+field with parameter `pydantic_only=True`.
+
+Fields created like this are added to the `pydantic` model fields -> so are subject to validation according to `Field` type, 
+also appear in `dict()` and `json()` result. 
+
+The difference is that **those fields are not saved in the database**. So they won't be included in underlying sqlalchemy `columns`, 
+or `table` variables (check [Internals][Internals] section below to see how you can access those if you need).
+
+Subsequently `pydantic_only` fields won't be included in migrations or any database operation (like `save`, `update` etc.)
+
+Fields like those can be passed around into payload in `fastapi` request and will be returned in `fastapi` response 
+(of course only if you set their value somewhere in your code as the value is **not** fetched from the db. 
+If you pass a value in `fastapi` `request` and return the same instance that `fastapi` constructs for you in `request_model`
+you should get back exactly same value in `response`.).
+
+!!!warning
+    `pydantic_only=True` fields are always **Optional** and it cannot be changed (otherwise db load validation would fail)
+
+!!!tip
+    `pydantic_only=True` fields are a good solution if you need to pass additional information from outside of your API 
+    (i.e. frontend). They are not stored in db but you can access them in your `APIRoute` code and they also have `pydantic` validation. 
+
+```Python hl_lines="18"
+--8<-- "../docs_src/models/docs014.py"
+```
+
+If you combine `pydantic_only=True` field with `default` parameter and do not pass actual value in request you will always get default value.
+Since it can be a function you can set `default=datetime.datetime.now` and get current timestamp each time you call an endpoint etc.
+
+!!!note
+    Note that both `pydantic_only` and `property_field` decorated field can be included/excluded in both `dict()` and `fastapi`
+    response with `include`/`exclude` and `response_model_include`/`response_model_exclude` accordingly.

+
+#### Property fields
+
+Sometimes it's desirable to do some kind of calculation on the model instance. One of the most common examples can be concatenating
+two or more fields. Imagine you have `first_name` and `last_name` fields on your model, but would like to have `full_name` in the result
+of the `fastapi` query. 
+
+You can create a new `pydantic` model with a `method` that accepts only `self` (so like default python `@property`) 
+and populate it in your code. 
+
+But it's so common that `ormar` has you covered. You can "materialize" a `property_field` on you `Model`.   
+
+!!!warning
+    `property_field` fields are always **Optional** and it cannot be changed (otherwise db load validation would fail)
+
+```Python hl_lines="20-22"
+--8<-- "../docs_src/models/docs015.py"
+```
+
+!!!warning
+    The decorated function has to accept only one parameter, and that parameter have to be `self`. 
+    
+    If you try to decorate a function with more parameters `ormar` will raise `ModelDefinitionError`.
+    
+    Sample:
+    
+    ```python
+    # will raise ModelDefinitionError
+    @property_field
+    def prefixed_name(self, prefix="prefix_"):
+        return 'custom_prefix__' + self.name
+    
+    # will raise ModelDefinitionError 
+    # (calling first param something else than 'self' is a bad practice anyway)
+    @property_field
+    def prefixed_name(instance):
+        return 'custom_prefix__' + self.name
+    ```
+    
+Note that `property_field` decorated methods do not go through verification (but that might change in future) and are only available
+in the response from `fastapi` and `dict()` and `json()` methods. You cannot pass a value for this field in the request 
+(or rather you can but it will be discarded by ormar so really no point but no Exception will be raised).
+
+!!!note
+    Note that both `pydantic_only` and `property_field` decorated field can be included/excluded in both `dict()` and `fastapi`
+    response with `include`/`exclude` and `response_model_include`/`response_model_exclude` accordingly.
+    
+!!!tip
+    Note that `@property_field` decorator is designed to replace the python `@property` decorator, you do not have to combine them.
+    
+    In theory you can cause `ormar` have a failsafe mechanism, but note that i.e. `mypy` will complain about re-decorating a property.
+    
+    ```python
+    # valid and working but unnecessary and mypy will complain
+    @property_field
+    @property
+    def prefixed_name(self):
+        return 'custom_prefix__' + self.name
+    ```
