I see that your HPXML was generated by ResStock and you are trying to run it through OpenStudio-HPXML. Note that the version of OpenStudio-HPXML matters because the inputs sometimes change with a new version.

The safest way to run OpenStudio-HPXML is to use the version that is embedded into your version of ResStock. It can be found inside the resources/hpxml-measures directory. That will ensure you get the same results that ResStock produced.

If instead you want to want to take a ResStock-generated HPXML file and run it with the latest version of OpenStudio-HPXML, then yes, you'll have to fix the two errors. The first one is because you now need a SystemIdentifier element for each Ducts element (see here as an example). The second one is because the Quantity elements were renamed to Count (see here for example). Both of these were input changes in OpenStudio-HPXML v1.5.0.
