The XML file must have a valid XSD (XML schema directory).
The XML file must not contain the path of DTD or XSD files.
The XML file must not have references pertaining to other XML files.
The XML file must not contain any name spaces with the root element.
It is not suggested to run the same data synchronization task repeatedly, as it will create
duplicate XML records.
It is strongly recommended to use XML file for the XSD schema path in connection.
When the XSD (XML Schema) file signifies the namespace that needs to be present in XML
file, then avoid using schema file for metedata parsing.
