  Document schema specifications are used to define the structure of documents exchanged between two systems. This includes defining the elements, attributes, and data types of the document. Once a document schema specification is created, it can be used to validate documents sent from one system to another. This ensures that the data is in the correct format and can be understood by the receiving system.
