XML object name for the 990PF Qualifying Distributions schedule part was changed in 2021 #3

For tax years 2021 and after, the name of the Qualifying Distributions schedule part in the 990PFs was changed in the XML from QualifyingDistriPartXIIGrp to PFQualifyingDistributionsGrp.

Unfortunately, this is one of the schedule parts we use the most. And e use IRSx for processing our 990 XML files, so this change caused us to tweak the metadata CSV files for IRSx to accommodate the name change until IRSx can be upgraded.

This file specifically?

The IRS had stopped making the schemas public, which was causing some delays with generating new metadata.

I actually had to change the object name (or references to the schedule part it represents) in all five of the metadata csv files used by IRSx...see my comments under issue #4 (here) -- Helen
