What about something along the lines of <party role="payee"> <address> .... <party role="supplier"> <address> .... or, if you prefer <party> <role>payee</role> .... I am currently working on an application where I have had to deal with exactly this problem, and for practical reasons with which I won't bore you, we adopted the latter approach, and have found that it is perfectly serviceable, at least for our application.

Hmm, this makes me think. While trained as mathematican, i'm probably working in business software too long: - define a complex data type "adress" - use it under various names, which usually denote roles (excuse the pseudo schema code, can't be bothered to look up the exact syntax :-) element address name: string zip: string city: string ... element order residentaddress : address shippingaddress : address ... Am i mistaken that a valid XML instance would look like the following? <order> <residentaddress> <name>...</name> ... </residentaddress> <shippingaddress> ... If so, matching the type "address" might be preferable to writing a template for every address role, or dispatching via <apply-template select="*[contains(name(),'address']" mode="address"/> or something. I do not claim that the schema above is actually well designed, if there are alternatives, i'd like to hear about them.
