That's most likely a namespace problem, not directly related
to the fact that you have a schema associated:

> <bpxml version="1.0" xmlns="http://www.todaysystems.com.au"
                       ^^^^^^
This puts all unqualified elements in a namespace. If
you have something like
  <xsl:template match="bpxml">
in you style sheet, it won't match anything, even if you
have copied the namespace declaration into your stylesheet.
In order to match or select elements from your document, you
have to prefix them in the style sheet:

 <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="..."
   xmlns:d="http://www.todaysystems.com.au" ...>
 ...
  <xsl:template match="d:bpxml">
   ...
    ... select="/d:bpxml[...]"...
