Sub-Element, XML Import Configuration

WHAT IT'S USED FOR:

Advanced XML

In some cases you may need to identify information to import via a sub-element within the main Element. This is for element identification to a second level. For instance, the XML may contain an Author element with a Name sub-element and also a Publisher element with a Name sub-element. This two-level identification can be used to distinguished the first Name element from the second Name element.
