Origin defines the source metadata, where applicable, for ODM ItemRefs or ItemGroupRefs. Origin as a child element replaces the Origin attribute in ODM v1.3 that exists for the ItemDef and ItemGroupDef elements.
The Origin element is based on the def:Origin element in Define-XML v2.1 with the Trace-XML v1.0 extension.

Child Elements | (Description?, SourceItems?, Coding*,DocumentRef*) The SourceItems element contains SourceItem child elements that reference the source variables, if any, for a given ItemRef. SourceItem elements provide machine-readable traceability and identify specific arguments for a MethodDef when used with an Origin with Type="Derived". |
