Schematron - Sample Rule

Sample Rule

Schematron rules can be created using a standard XML editor or XForms application. The following is a sample schema:

Date rules ContractDate should be in the past because future contracts are not allowed.

This rule checks to make sure that the ContractDate XML element has a date that is before the current date. If this rule fails the validation will fail and an error message which is the body of the assert element will be returned to the user.
