XML Document: Import Manager

Question

hello all -
I have created an XML document in this format:
<MDM_PRD_ProductRecord>
  <data1>123</data1>
  <data2>456</data2>
  <MDM_PRD_Price>
    <test1>123</test1>
    <test2>456</test2>
  </MDM_PRD_Price>
  <MDM_PRD_Price>
    <test3>100</test3>
    <test4>101</test4>
  </MDM_PRD_Price>
  <MDM_UOM>
    <test5>5</test5>
    <test6>6</test6>
  </MDM_UOM>
  <MDM_UOM>
    <test7>7</test7>
    <test8>8</test8>
  </MDM_UOM>
</MDM_PRD_ProductRecord>
Seems like SP4 MDM is not loading this xml into the repository because of multiple xml elements <MDM_UOM>, <MDM_PRD_Price> and would expect in one xml file instead of having the xml file into multiple tables like <MDM_UOM> and <MDM_PRD_Price>
The file is being generated from XI. Just would like to know if there are other possibilities in MDM since i did not find any from the forums.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Tirumal

Hi Tirumal,
the import of XMLs into MDM via Import Manager is easier, if you use an XML Schema. Since you are creating the file with XI, you should already have an XML Schema (or XSD). You can download this file from XI and add it to your repository in the Admin Section of the MDM console. Afterwards you use the option "XML Schema" and your XML in the Import Manager.
Kind regards
