RE: Biztalk schema change question



Technically, if you simply add a new, non-required field to the schema, you
would not have to change the existing maps. It should be ignored for those.

For proper versioning, you'd want to consider namespace versioning, which
would mean that a new version of your schema (with a slightly different
namespace) was deployed, and you'd have a single map updated to use that new
destination schema.

We have many maps in production that use one specific schema as the outbound
schema. I need to add a single field to the end of the schema for one
specific trading partner. If I update the standard schema wouldn't I need to
recompile and redeploy all the maps that use it? I'd rather not do this.
Should I then copy the schema to a different name? if I do this then how to
I change my map to use the new schema?
