Hi Jessy,

minOccurs > 0

Mapping is mandatory. A source element or a constant has to be assigned to the target element. Otherwise a error message is shown "Message mapping not completely defined". If not sufficient vlaues are provided from the source structure the last source element is reiterated.

minOccurs = max Occurs

Nodes are automatically marked in green. Mapping is not mandatory. <minOccurs> nodes are created automatically.

maxOccurs > 1

Source: Target element is created as often as mapped source element occurs in the source message.

if monOccurs>0, <minOccurs> target elements are created.

if minOccurs=0, 1 target element is created.

minOccurs=0

Mapping of non mandatory nodes.

Hi,

Please refer to this guide to understand XI mapping and especially Caridnality.
