54		-To prevent weird results when it comes to the creation of data models we do not accept maxOccurs above 50. To succesfully import your definition you should change the maxOccurs setting to unbounded. This way eMagiz will succesfully import the definition. As of today we have never encountered a practical case where this caused issues.
	58	+As specified before in earlier microlearnings, eMagiz defines the expected structure with the help of data models. Within a data model you need to specify the association between entities. In XSD terminology this is represented as follows <xs:element type="itemsType" name="items"/>. However, sometimes we see a different notation that is not working when importing an XSD in eMagiz. This notation is <xs:group ref="status_group" />. To get this in you need to rewrite the association in your XSD a bit to reflect the first notation and mention that the assocation is optional (minOccurs="0").

	62	+As specified before in earlier microlearnings, eMagiz defines the expected structure with the help of data models. Within a data model you need to specify the association between entities and order within these entities. In XSD terminology this is represented as follows <xs:complexType><xs:element name="employee" type="employee"/><xs:element name="member" type="member"/></xs:complexType>. However, sometimes we see that a choice is offered in the XSD. This notation means that you can supply A or B. This notation is <xs:complexType><xs:choice><xs:element name="employee" type="employee"/><xs:element name="member" type="member"/></xs:choice></xs:complexType>. To get this in you need to remove the reference to the <xs:choice> and the </xs:choice> lines in your XSD and make each element within the choice optional (minOccurs="0").
