Description

If you put an annotation block inside a complex type, it is silently ignored.

E.g.,

 <xsd:element name="ORDCHG">
                <xsd:complexType>
                  <xsd:annotation>
                    <xsd:appinfo source="http://www.ogf.org/dfdl/">
                      <dfdl:assert>
                        {fn:contains(../UNH/S009,'ORDCHG')}
                      </dfdl:assert>
                    </xsd:appinfo>
                  </xsd:annotation>
                  <xsd:sequence>
                ....

That annotation belongs inside the element, not inside the complex type. But nothing warns you about that, or suggests anything is wrong. it's just ignored.
