    Note that the XML record must conform to a particular schema. For more information about the schema, see Schemas used in MDM processes to call Jobs.
    One sample of XML record from the Update Report is as follows:
    <exchange xmlns:mdm="java:com.amalto.core.plugin.base.xslt.MdmExtension">
<report>
<Update>
<UserName>administrator</UserName>
<Source>genericUI</Source>
<TimeInMillis>1381486872930</TimeInMillis>
<OperationType>ACTION</OperationType>
<RevisionID>null</RevisionID>
<DataCluster>Product</DataCluster>
<DataModel>Product</DataModel>
<Concept>Product</Concept>
<Key>2</Key>
</Update>
</report>

    <exchange><report/><item><Product><Id>001</Id><Name>Computer</Name><Description>Laptop series</Description><Availability>true</Availability><Price>400</Price><OnlineStore>TalendShop@@http://www.cafepress.com/Talend.2</OnlineStore><Stores><Store>[Dell]</Store><Store>[Lenovo]</Store></Stores></Product></item></exchange>
