Adapted Citation Style cannot be validated in CSL Validator

Dear Zotero-community,

working as a student assistant at a German institute I adjusted the SAGE Harvard citation style to fit our OECD-based citation guidelines.
We already use it at the institute, yet whenever the cls-files are being imported a notification pops up saying that the citation style might not work properly due to some imperfect coding.

I had the style checked in the CSL Style and Locale Validator and it displayed these two errors:

- Line 109: Element “group” from namespace “http://purl.org/net/xbiblio/csl” is missing a required instance of one or more of the following child elements: “choose”, “date”, “group”, “label”, “names”, “number”, “text”.

- Line 192: Element “date” from namespace “http://purl.org/net/xbiblio/csl” is missing one or more of the following attributes: “form”, “variable”.

Any ideas, how I could solve this (I could unfortunately not enter the whole code here, so in case you'd need the whole code just let me know;-))?

Kindest regards, sorry for the inconvenience and a big thank you in advance!!!
