How to use a header column in a repeating group

Question

I am trying to create a BIP report (11.1.1.6.2) with an XML file as source. The XML files start with a few header fields, followed by the actual data. For example:
<DATA>
<PARAMETERS>
<P_ORDER>Order</P_ORDER>
<P_CUSTOMER>Customer</P_CUSTOMER>
</PARAMETERS>
<LIST_DETAILS>
<DETAIL>
<V_ORDER>12345</V_ORDER>
<V_CUSTOMER>Oracle</V_CUSTOMER>
</DETAIL>
<DETAIL>
<V_ORDER>67890</V_ORDER>
<V_CUSTOMER>Microsoft</V_CUSTOMER>
</DETAIL>
</LIST_DETAILS>
</DATA>
The desired output should combine a field from the <PARAMETERS> group and a field from the <DETAIL> group in one line. So with this example data it should look like this:
Order: 12345
Customer: Oracle
Order: 67890
Customer: Microsoft
In my RTF template I created a repeating group <?for-each:DETAIL?> and put everything in that repeating group. Unfortunately BIP leaves the values for the fields in the <PARAMETERS> group empty.
I also tried to nest two repeating groups. First: <?for-each:PARAMETERS?>, within that: <?for-each:DETAIL?>. This does not solve the problem.
How can I achieve my desired output?

try
<?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX,'LVarORDER',P_ORDER)?>
<?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX,'LVarCUSTOMER',P_CUSTOMER)?>
<?for-each:DETAIL?>                                 |           <?V_ORDER?>
<?xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'LVarORDER')?>      |
----------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------
<?xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'LVarCUSTOMER')?>   | <?V_CUSTOMER?><?end for-each?>
