Firstly, I wonder why everyone else's transforms work without namespaces...

The following is an attempt to pass through the desired nodes (and
their text values) while avoiding the default template. (not what
Catherine ultimately wanted, and not complete).

Cheers,
Hank

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
                xmlns:xl="http://com/exlibris/repository/acq/invoice/xmlbeans">

    <xsl:template
match="xl:payment_data|xl:invoice_list|xl:invoice|xl:invoice_number|xl:currency|xl:vendor_code|xl:invoice_line_list|xl:invoice_line|xl:fund_info_list|xl:fund_info">
        <xsl:copy>
            <xsl:value-of select="text()"/>
            <xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/>
        </xsl:copy>
    </xsl:template>

    <xsl:template match="text()|@*"></xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>


Output:
