    • "Required" when at least 1 instance of the element is required
    • "Optional" when the element is optional
    • "Conditional" when at least 1 instance of the element is required under certain conditions. It will include the conditions under which the element is Required.
  • Cardinality: This indicates the number of instances expected (e.g. "Exactly one", "One or more")
  • Business Rule(s): Beyond what is required for schema validation, these represent conformance rules that must be satisfied for a Define-XML ODM document to be considered compliant with this specification.
  • Other Information: This is populated with any other information about the element, including the conditions under which the element is included, how the schema is applied to support the model, relative position of the element in the model, and so on.
AttributesA comma-delimited list of the attributes of this element. If the element has no attributes, this is populated with "None".
Child Elements
  • A comma-delimited list of the immediate child elements of this element. If the element has no child elements, this is populated with "None". The order of child elements shown in the specification is the order in which they must appear in a Define-XML ODM document.
