Response XML Structure of Service
The Response XML structure of the Record Query ValidValues service supports the relationships across catalogs. To switch to a backward compatible response structure, set the Backward compatible Web Service Replies property in the Configurator to true. Setting this property to true enables backward compatible responses for catalogs, which do not have relationships across catalogs. ValidValues response for catalogs having relationships across catalogs will always have a new response structure irrespective of the value of the property. The default value of this property is false.
