Just wanted to put add a xpath command solution that also works, simply as a future reference for users that can go with the spath command solution.

| eval xml=replace(_raw, "^<\?xml.+\?>[\r\n]*", "")   ``` xpath does not like ?xml encoding version and text declaration, so remove```  
| xpath field=xml outfield=ResponseCode "//*[local-name()='ResponseCode']"   ``` use *[local-name()='<value>' to ignore namespace declarations, i.e. xmlns='smomething' ]  ```
| xpath field=xml outfield=SimpleResponseCode "//*[local-name()='SimpleResponseCode']"
