THE SOLUTION
Custom schema generation
Orchestria uses AI-powered mapping to match your target schema.
- Intelligent tag generation : column headers converted to clean XML element names
- Automatic grouping : related fields nested into XML structures
- Attribute mapping : specify which fields become attributes via natural language
- Schema compliance : output conforms to UBL, SEPA, cXML or your custom XSD
- Namespace support : required prefixes and URIs added automatically
Describe your target XML format in plain English and Orchestria generates the conversion flow.
Why convert CSV to XML?
Many enterprise systems and regulatory frameworks require structured XML for data exchange.
- B2B compliance : supply chains and banks mandate XML formats like UBL, SEPA or cXML
- EDI transactions : XML-based standards like ebXML and RosettaNet for electronic data interchange
- ERP integration : SAP, Oracle and Microsoft Dynamics import data through XML interfaces
- Government reporting : tax filings and customs declarations require specific XML schemas
Orchestria converts your flat CSV into schema-compliant XML without manual formatting.
Structuring tabular data as XML
CSV is flat, but XML is hierarchical. Bridging this gap introduces several challenges.
- Element naming : convert column headers into valid XML tag names
- Hierarchy : group related columns under parent elements (
<address>) - Attributes vs. elements : decide which values become attributes or child nodes
- Data validation : XML schemas (XSD) enforce required fields and data types
- Namespace declarations : B2B documents require specific namespace prefixes
Manually crafting XML from CSV is tedious, especially with strict schema requirements.

The Excel equivalent
Traditional method
In Excel, there is no built-in CSV-to-XML converter. You would need to write a VBA macro or use a third-party plugin to generate XML, manually handling tag naming, hierarchy, and schema compliance.
With Orchestria
With Orchestria, paste your CSV and describe the XML structure you need. The AI generates schema-compliant XML in seconds, with proper hierarchy, attributes, and namespaces.
