U2 Developer Works Article: Validate data types in U2 using XML schema.

U2 stores all of its data without any type validation. Thus the same field can contain an integer, a string, or even an internal date structure. While this may be useful to the application developer, it can cause problems when integrating the data from your U2 environment to an external environment. In this article, validate the data against a schema and prevent invalid data with update triggers.
