Hi,
The soap validation is very literal. If in the selector you first
specify the dateRange followed by fields, it checks the XSD and see that
dateRange is valid as a first element. It then sees fields, but according
to the XSD, either paging or ordering must come next, so it throws that
error message. You need to make sure you provide the fields in the correct
error, but you can omit fields you don't need (as long as the fields you do
include are in the right order). Our client libraries should handle this
reordering for you - if you are using a client library (the code looks like
it might be Ruby?), please file an issue on the client library's issue
tracker so we can fix this.
