Load data in xml file into Pdf form created by LiveCycle Designer

I want to load data in xml file into Pdf form when Pdf opened and Form field will be filled with data from xml file .I try to use $host.importdata("filename.xml"); But i could not find suitable place to run my code. Can anyone give me some advice? thank you.

Hi,
extract your xml and then you can use insert all clause.
here's very small example on 10.2.0.1.0
SQL> create table table1(id number,val varchar2(10));
Table created.
SQL> create table table2(id number,val varchar2(10));
Table created.
SQL> insert all
  2  into table1 values(id,val)
  3  into table2 values(id2,val2)
  4  select extractValue(x.col,'/a/id1') id
  5        ,extractValue(x.col,'/a/value') val
  6        ,extractValue(x.col,'/a/value2') val2
  7        ,extractValue(x.col,'/a/id2') id2
  8  from (select xmltype('<a><id1>1</id1><value>a</value><id2>2</id2><value2>b</value2></a>') col from dual) x;
2 rows created.
SQL> select * from table1;
        ID VAL                                                                 
         1 a                                                                   
SQL> select * from table2;
        ID VAL

  • Load data from XML files into BI

    Hi All,
    Can any one guide me through the steps which involve in loading data from XML files into BI?
    Thanks

    Hi James,
    I have followed upto step No: 12 .
    Please could you let me know how to link the XML file on my local drive to BI,
    I am not able to find figure out where to specify the path of the XML file to be loaded into BI.

    1. Create a Infosource(ZIS), with transfer structure in accordance with the structure in the XML file. (You can open the XML file with MS Excel.This way you can get to know the structure).
    2. Activate the transfer rules.
    3. After activation ;from the Menu Bar , Select Extras>Create BW Datasource with SOAP connection.
    4.Now Activate the Infosurce again, this creates an XML based Datasource(6AXXX...)
    5.These steps would create two sub nodes under the Infosource(ZIS).
    6.Select Myself system and create a data package and execute it run in Init mode(without Data Transfer).
    7. This would create an entry in RSA7(BW delta Queue)
    8. Again create another Delta Infopackage under it, and run it. Now the Datasource(6AXXXXXX..) would turn green in RSA7.
    9.In Function builder(SE37) select your FM( do a search ,F4, on the datasource 6AXXX....) .
    10.Inside this RFC based FM , from the Menu Bar select Utilities>more Utilities>Create Web services>From Function module.
    11.A wizard will guide you through the next steps .
    12.once this is done a Web serrvice would be enabled in WSADMIN. Select your FM and execute it.
    13.From here you can upload the data from XML file into BW delta queue.

  • Writing data programmatically into PDF template created in LiveCycle designer

    Hi!!!
    I have a PDF template designed in Adobe LiveCycle Designer 7.0. This template has form fields which needs to be filled with data programmatically (I don't want to open LiveCycle Designer 7.0 and from there do import/export). I want to write a program in java, which will fetch data from database and will merge this data into PDF form in respective fields.
    How this can be achieved? Do I have to write an XDP file? Is there any API which will create XDP out of the PDF template created in designer? If so, then how to merge the data from the XDP into the PDF programmatically.
    Thanks in advance.

    Careful with the recommendations for XPAAJ. There are specific restrictions around whether you can
    use XPAAJ or not. Specifically, you have to own a copy of one of the server-based LiveCycle
    products. This does not include LiveCycle Designer, which is a client product.
    Maybe someone from Adobe can clarify.

  • Why can't I 'place' a signature into a .pdf form created in LiveCycle Designer 9???

    Hi there,
    I have been pulling my hair out all afternoon!
    I have created a dynamic form in LiveCycle Designer 9 - saved it as a Dynamic XML Form - opened it in Acrobat X - saved it as Reader Extended PDF and Enabled Additional Features. My colleagues will then need to open it in Reader X and select the option to draw and place thier signature in the text field I have provided them with. When I open the form in Reader X and click on the SIGN tab I get the following error message:
    The security settings on this document prevent adding text and/or placing a signature on it from Adobe Reader. To fill and sign this document you need to print it out.
    I have looked for help on this issue everywhere, yet to no avail.
    I do not want to hear about using digital signatures or Echosign, We only want and need to have staff sign forms by drawing their signature.
    Please help!
    Thanks,
    Will

    Hi will,
    I am not aware of Reader Enabled PDF from Acrobat X.
    Have you tried enabling digital signature using Reader Extensions which comes with LiveCycle Server. viz http://I.P:Port/ReaderExtensions

  • Is it too much to ask that a Mac user can just OPEN and USE a PDF form created by LiveCycle Designer PC software?!?

    My problem is just that- I have created all my forms using LiveCycle Designer because it is easier to make the forms accessible to individuals with disabilities.  Apparently it doesn't make Mac users have access to the forms.  I've received complaints from Mac users that cannot complete or submit the forms that I created.  I'm not asking how to recreate using another software, I know how to do that.  I'm asking is there a work around to allow a Mac user to open a PDF form or even XML (bedded within an HTML page) on a Mac computer WITHOUT having to use bootcamp, parallels, etc. and be able to complete the form and submit, print or email it?????  I've exhausted all my knowledge on this thus far and I'm hoping to find something that will help.  So far all forums talk about how Mac users need to have a PC side to their computer.  Isn't there another way?
    I've attached an example form that we are no longer using (though still created exactly the same as the others)
    Thanks!

    Hi, as far as I can infer, that term means it's not loading any resources until needed, opposite of this...
    -bind_at_load
                     Sets a bit in the mach header of the resulting binary which tells dyld to bind all symbols                when the binary is loaded, rather than lazily.
    https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/ man1/ld.1.html
    Load resources lazily.
    You should never load a resource file until it is actually needed. Prefetching resource files may seem like a way to save time, but this practice actually slows down your app right away. In addition, if you end up not using the resource, loading it wastes memory for no good purpose.

  • Is it possible to save a copy of a PDF form created in Livecycle Designer ES3?

    Hey,
    I've created a form using the trial version of Livecycle ES3 however when I view the form I get this message:
    "you cannot save data typed into this form. Please print your completed form if you would like to keep a copy for your records."
    Is there a way around this/ is this just with the trial version? If I download the full version will the forms then be saveable?
    I don't want to send out the form to people unless they are able to save a copy as I think that this could cause issues.
    Answers much appreciated!

    If you use the File > Distribute Form this does allow recipients to save data entered into the form.  However, beware of the following points:
    1.  File > Distribute Form will take you through a process to gather information about your preferences for distribution including destination email addresses.  Once you have gone through this process, subsequently there is no option to change or reset any of the original inputs.  For example, if you wish to change the destination email address, you need to open the PDF in Acrobat Pro and go to Edit > Preferences and select the identity category.  The email address can be changed there.
    2.The File > Distribute Form, seems to make other changes to the PDF too, because it uses the email address entered when Distribute Form is first used, to submit the PDF by email.  If you have an email submit button in your form, like I did, this does not work any longer in Adobe Reader.  Clicking it now simply prompts to save a local copy of the PDF. The submit does work in Acrobat Pro, but this is useless for a distributed form.

  • Loading data from .csv file into existing table

    Hi,
    I have taken a look at several threads which talk about loading data from .csv file into existing /new table. Also checked out Vikas's application regarding the same. I am trying to explain my requirement with an example.
    I have a .csv file and I want the data to be loaded into an existing table. The timesheet table columns are -
    timesheet_entry_id,time_worked,timesheet_date,project_key .
    The csv columns are :
    project,utilization,project_key,timesheet_category,employee,timesheet_date , hours_worked etc.
    What I needed to know is that before the csv data is loaded into the timesheet table is there any way of validating the project key ( which is the primary key of the projects table) with the projects table . I need to perform similar validations with other columns like customer_id from customers table. Basically the loading should be done after validating if the data exists in the parent table. Has anyone done this kind of loading through the APEX utility-data load.Or is there another method of accomplishing the same.
    Does Vikas's application do what the utility does ( i am assuming that the code being from 2005 the utility was not incorporated in APEX at that time). Any helpful advise is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Anjali

    Hi Anjali,
    Take a look at these threads which might outline different ways to do it -
    File Browse, File Upload
    Loading CSV file using external table
    Loading a CSV file into a table
    you can create hidden items in the page to validate previous records before insert data.
    Hope this helps,

  • Convert XML file into PDF file

    <b>XML to PDF</b>i want to Convert XML file into PDF file pl. any one can suggests API's

    Hi,
    There are many ways to convert XML files to PDFs through java.
    One of the easiest way is by using iText.jar which have classes for conversion.
    The following are the required steps
    1. Create a document object for the XML file ( Using DOM or SAX parser).
    2. Parse the xml document and extract the content to write in PDF.
    3.Create a itext Document object.
    4.Get a PdfWriter instance for the PDF file.
    5.Write in the pdf the extracted text using the document object.
    Refer <a href="http://itextdocs.lowagie.com/examples/com/lowagie/examples/general/HelloWorld.java">here</a> for a simple pdf writer example.
    Refer <a href="http://java.sun.com/developer/codesamples/xml.html">here</a> for examples of XML Parsers.

  • Importing data- using xml file into HANA Table

    Hi,
    We are using (HDB STUDIO ) - revision 60.......
    Is it possible to import data using XML file into HANA table (Master,Fact tables)?
    (Without using any intermediate adapters for conversion of data.....)
    Can any one suggest us........
    Thank you.

    Hi user450616
    I am a bit confused about what you are trying to achieve.
    Are you:
    1. importing a CSV file into APEX
    2. adding an extra column to the Oracle Table
    3. populating the extra column with the CSV filename?
    Let us know if this is what you are trying to do.

  • Data import for users of forms created with Livecycle Designer

    Hello,
    I have seen several posts regarding data import for forms created by Livecycle Designer but nothing that helps with something I am trying to accomplish.  I can create a data connection and import information in a form but what I would like to do is import data, then send the pdf for completion to a user.  There are a few data elements that I have available and the rest of the information comes from from the user.  The problem I run into is once I create a data connection, the pdf is ALWAYS looking for the source file for that data.  I simply want to prepopulate some fields and send to the various users for completion.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Which type of Data Connection are you trying to create?
    XML Schema, Sample Data File or WSDL?
    Creating any one of first two types(mentioned above) will only create schema and will never import any data into PDF.
    If you create the WSDL connection, you can surely import data (i.e. prepopulate data) into your PDF and forward it for users review/fill.
    If I misunderstood your question, please get me clarified.

  • Form created with Livecycle Designer with a SQL database - do you need LiveCycle Forms installed?

    Hello,
    I'm REALLY hoping someone here can help me, I have spent over four hours on the phone to Adobe in the last 3 days and I'm getting no where what-so-ever. I can't even find out where /how to complain about it! (but thats another story)
    Here's my situtation:
    I work for a company with approx 140 staff. On one computer, we have Adobe Livecycle Designer ES installed, and we have used that program to create a form which has a link to a SQL database.
    The link in this form doesn't work on the other computers which has the basic (free) Adobe Reader. From doing research within these forums
     , I have found that the form will not work on other computers unless they have Adobe Livecycle forms installed on their machines. 
    What I need to know (and what they cannot seem to tell me when I call), is two things:
    Is it correct that in order to use a form created in Livecycle Designer which has a link to a SQL database, that the machine must have LiveCycle forms installed?
    How much does Adobe LiveCycle Forms costs?
    PLEASE, if you can answer this question, I would REALLY appriciate it....
    Thank you!

    I presume you are asking if you need Livecycle Forms ES? Forms ES is a component of the livecycle software suite intended as a document service which will be installed on a server within the organisation. A couple of things this document service can do is to render XDP into multiple formats (PDF, html, etc.), execute script server side (for example the database connection) on behalf of the client (reader, etc.), integrate with backend components, etc. So no you do not install this on each client.
    For database connections to work, you either have a server with Forms ES installed which can connect on each clients behalf (ie. Client->Forms ES Server->Database), or you have a reader-extended PDF to allow connections to be use in the free basic Reader (i.e. direct calls to the database or using web service calls to your own database components). However, reader-extended pdf would probably require Reader Extensions ES component installed on a server (you once off extend your developed pdf through this and then hand it out to each of the end users). Not sure if the Acrobat Reader extensions will cover this functionality since I have not tried that. I dont think it does. Otherwise you would need full acrobat on each client.
    How much database integration is your form actually doing at the moment? read only? Full access? And how many clients do you expect to hit your database? Depending on what you need the form to do, there is always the option to try and build the integration yourself. Do simple http submits from the browser (hosting reader as a plugin) to some component somewhere which in turn hits your database. Wouldnt require additional licensing but alot more development work.
    As for cost for the various components, thats a question only Adobe can answer for you since they all sit squarely in the enterprise space and licensing for that is not as simple as off the shelf products.
    Maybe someone else has a view on it or has an alternative.

  • Cannot fill forms created by LiveCycle Designer

    Dear all,
         By using Adboe Reader for iPad, I can fill the forms created by Adobe Pro, but cannot view pdf and fill the forms created by LiveCycle Designer. Any idea?
    Thanks,
    Jackson

    Thanks for the reply. Right now I can create froms in Adobe Pro, but I need to create an "image file" which is only avialble in LiveCycle designer. Did the Acroforms you mention supports Image field? I tried to create a form with image fields in LiveCycle Designer, and then save as static form. It will work for PC but doesn't work for iPad.

  • Form created by Livecycle Designer

    Dear All,
    I've created few formed by LC Designer. The form I fill with Adobe Reader for iPad will NOT be able to be seen in Acrobat Reader for PC. It can be seen in Adobe Reader for iPad. Any idea?
    Thanks,
    Jackson

    The iOS Adobe Reader does not properly fill in XFA forms created in LiveCycle designer. Thus, the PC and other readers cannot view the form properly. Others have requested the ability to fill static XFA forms from LC Designer as well, so we'll note your request as another "vote", however we have not decided whether or not we'll be able to implement this in the Mobile Reader. As an alternative to LC designer, you can use the Acroform forms creation tool within the Acrobat product to create the form.
    I hope this helps and I apologize for the inconvenience.
