Repeatable elements

Encapsulation

Repeatable elements should always be encapsulated in another element, having the same name pluralized.

<Person>
   <.../> 
   <Addresses> <!-- [0..1] - Encapsulating element -->
      <Address> <!-- [0..many] - Repeatable element -->
      </Address>
   </Addresses>
</Person>

Nesting

To ensure compatibility with the Partial Update feature, it is not advised to have more than one level of repeatable elements.

To make your data model less complex, try not to nest repeatable elements.

Multiple repeatable elements

To ease data management in the Integration perspective, it is advised not to have many repeatable elements on the same entity.
