To import XML file as a source:
1.To identify a source go to tools---> source analyzer
2.From the sources menu option,select 'import xml file'. XML Wizard window will come.
3.In the XML Wizard window the option unstructured will come.Click 'yes' there.
4.Next click on 'Entity Relationship' if you deal with relational type of target.
then click o.k.
5.Save the repository.
5.Then the XML source will be listed on the L.H.S under the sources subfolder under a file souce head

Similarly you can do to import XML file as a target in the target designer following the same above steps.
While executing the workflow in the session you need to give the path for this source XML file properly:
e.g., Source directory: c:files
Source filename: emp_xml.xml
