IsAbstract:Boolean

Sets or finds out by means of a call whether the current schema is abstract.

No data objects can be instantiated by abstract schemas in the data repository. Abstract schemas can only define types (simpleType, complexType, element, attribute, group) or be used for structuring. These schemas can also be added to another schema as a child schema, although only all subordinate, non-abstract schemas can be instantiated.

If data objects exist in the data repository, then the schema cannot be changed to abstract.
