MISMO Publishes New Engineering Guideline For Extending A Standard MISMO XML Schema
MISMO, the real estate finance industry’s standards organization, published the new MISMO Engineering Guideline (MEG) for Extending a Standard MISMO XML Schema (MEG 0025).
“The MISMO MEGs ensure that work products adhere to all applicable technology standards, are produced in a consistent fashion, and meet the needs of the mortgage industry,” said David Coleman, MISMO President.
MEG 0025 provides guidance on how to extend the MISMO Version 3.x XML schema – providing an orderly way of enabling a message to hold additional data needed for mortgage processing that is not included in a specific MISMO XML schema version. The goals of the MISMO Extension Model are to:
- Allow any container element to be extended (added on to);
- Identify and separate MISMO data and extended data;
- Allow extensions from multiple organizations to coexist in a single XML instance including within the same container;
- Allow simultaneous schema validation of MISMO and OTHER content, and
- Additional details are provided in the MEG for handling EXTENSION containers and attributes.
