If you bootstrapped your module the vtlib APIs, in the Module class is a 
method specifically for this purpose:

https://code.vtiger.com/vtiger/vtigercrm/blob/7.4.0GA/vtlib/Vtiger/ModuleBasic.php#L311

e.g.:

> // Payment Number

> 	$field->delete();

> $field = new Vtiger_Field();
> $field->name = 'paymentno';
> $field->column = $field->name;
> $field->label = 'Payment No.';
> $field->columntype = 'VARCHAR(100)';
> $field->uitype = 4;
> $field->presence = 0;
> $field->typeofdata = 'V~O';
> $field->summaryfield = 1;
> $block_main->addField($field);
> 
> // Set an Entity Idenitfier field  
> $module->setEntityIdentifier($field);
