XML BURSTING PROGRAM QUESTION

Hello All,
I have customized an oracle application program with xml publisher.The program prints the report in PDF format.
My questions is where this output copied in the server .I am not able to find the pdf report in $APPLCSF/out/.
Do i need to use XML bursting program to achieve this?If yes i am new to xml coding can anyone help in creating busting control file.
My object is to print the pdf report to unix server directory
THanks

Pl post details of OS, database and EBS versions.

Hi,
The reason for the exception is we don't have any data in the file to zip. If you are sending xml data to the data definition check the path in select clause in bursting control file.

Issue with XML bursting program

Hi All,
We have a Oracle concurrent program which generates PDF output using XML data and RTF template. This output is sent as attachment to a designated user using XML bursting.
The issue that we are facing is, the mail is sent to the recipients correctly when the program is run from my login. But when the same is run from anyone else’s login, the bursting program fails.
Suppose the receiver’s email id is [email protected], the error faced is
[oracle.apps.xdo.batch.DeliveryHelper][EXCEPTION] javax.mail.internet.AddressException: Illegal character in domain in string ``[email protected]@xyz.com''
On examining the XML bursting program log file for successful and error runs, I could see the below property in the log file-
For successful run: [SMTP_TO_RECIPIENTS:String] [[email protected]]
Whereas for unsuccessful run: [SMTP_TO_RECIPIENTS:String] [[email protected]@xyz.com]
Any pointers in this regard are highly appreciated.
Regards,
Kiranmayi.

Thanks for your quick response.
I believe the HP printer is an old one and I did have a couple of issues with it while using XML Publisher.However we've overcome those issues.
We have installed xpdf and have been using the pdf2ps utility.We have PASTA set up and printing works fine when Bursting is not used.
Is there some change I have to make to the configuration file/Bursting Control file to be able to use this pdf2ps utility to print to this Printer?
Nevertheless I will also try using ipp on one of our newer printers...
Thanks,
Lavina

Hi,
There is a difference in parameters for the Concurrent program XDOBURSTREP (XML Bursting...) in 11i and R12...
Please find below...
**For 11i**
FND_REQUEST.SUBMIT_REQUEST
('XDO',
'XDOBURSTREP',
FALSE,
:P_CONC_REQUEST_ID,
'Y',
**For R12**
FND_REQUEST.SUBMIT_REQUEST
('XDO',
'XDOBURSTREP',
NULL,
NULL,
FALSE,
'N',
to_char(:P_CONC_REQUEST_ID),
'Yes'
Hope this will clear the issue...

How to make Email XML Bursting program end in Warning

Hi All,
We are calling athe Bursting program in After parameter form trigger
req_id :=
fnd_request.submit_request ('XDO',
'XDOBURSTREP',
NULL,
NULL,
FALSE,
'N',
TO_CHAR (:p_conc_request_id),
'Yes'
This bursting program will work on customer(Sales Order) bill to site email address that is defined for that customer of our Sales order report.
NOW the requirement is, if email address is NULL then the Bursting program should end in warning.(For parameters Sales order number from:33 to:33, if email id is null, then Bursting program is ending in Error. But if I give a parameter range sales order num from 33 to 35 and if only 33 so customer has email id, then program is completing in Normal.
I want it to end in WARNING)
Please help

Some possible workaround would be
- add filter to your bursting control file to just process records with email address
- or make the change on the calling program to invoke bursting only for records with email address
- or make too much effort catching the exact error message and force-changing the concurrent job completion status on the fly :|
Good luck.

XML Bursting shows incorrect values in email

We used bursting for sending out AR statements. We want to email the statements and ftp the same to another server for backup copies. When I have my delivery as just email, everything works as expected. When I add 'ftp' delivery in addition to 'email', I see strange behaviour.
If an element in XML is null, and this element is referenced in the email body/subject line, this element shows values from another element that has a value. For example, we have an element 'comment' which is referenced in subject of the email.
This 'comment' can be null, and when it is null, the value shows 'party_name'. Any ideas on why XML Bursting program would show values from other elements when the referenced element value is null? And this happens only when I have more than one 'delivery'.

Hi,
I am also facing a similar issue, I try to burst the xml file and email it to email address. for records with email address it works fine and when the email address is null, it has taken value from different records (though i don't see it against the respective XML group).
Did you get a chance to identify the issue?

XML Bursting and attaching PDF file to self service page

Hi All,
We have developed custom report and implemented XML Bursting Program(not intended to send e-mails). If the output of the concurrent program is producing 100 output files, say 100 pdf HR letters, we need to attach each letters to individual employee HR records(Manager Self service page).
How can we implement a solutions for the above requirement.
Thanks in Advance,
Arun

Hi,
I have similar requirement to attach the report output to one entity as an FND attachment. Any examples?
Thanks,

Hi Velkit,
Check under your "Share" menu. It should be there. If it isn't there either, make sure that "Mail" is your default email client and then look under the share menu.
Hope this helps,

XML Bursting Never Complete.

Hi
The XML Bursting program neither complete nor error out.
I am using PLSQL for 1. Generating XML 2. SUbmit the concurrent programs.
I have three programs : 1. To Submit the XML Report and Bursting Program. 2. To Generate the XML Report. 3. XML Bursting.
My Program 1 and 2 completes Normal. But XML Bursting Neither completes nor throws the error.
I am using Control file
=============
<xapi:requestset xmlns:xapi="http://xmlns.oracle.com/oxp/xapi" type="bursting">
<xapi:request select="/EMPLOYEE_REPORT/EMPLOYEE">
<xapi:delivery>

Any help is Appreciated.

Hi Asif,
We have applied this patch but I think the issue was the rtf in the server having a different name.I will test this in another environment without the patch. Now the issue I'm facing is Bursting Control files gets all null value passed.Hence the report and the all the details are null. Also I have changed my approach from rdf to XML data definition file. Below is the control file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
-<xapi:requestset xmlns:xapi="http://xmlns.oracle.com/oxp/xapi"> -<xapi:request select="/XLAAARPT/LIST_G_RUN_LONG_REPORT/G_RUN_LONG_REPORT"> -<xapi:delivery> -<xapi:email reply-to="${CP_REQUESTED_BY}" from="${CP_REQUESTED_BY}" port="port_number" server="outbound mail server"> <xapi:message subject="${CP_SUBJECT} ${SEGMENT2} and Period: ${PERIOD_NAME}" attachment="true" cc="" to="${CF_1}" id="123"> ${CP_EMAIL_VERBAGE} </xapi:message> </xapi:email> </xapi:delivery> -<xapi:document delivery="123" output-type="excel" output="${BAL_DATA}_${SEGMENT2}"> <xapi:template location="/d11/appluat/F12UAT/apps/apps_st/appl/twpco/12.0.0/bin/TWPCO_GLRGNL2_XMLB.rtf" type="rtf"> </xapi:template> </xapi:document> </xapi:request> </xapi:requestset>
Also I could notice that xapi:request select="/XLAAARPT/LIST_G_RUN_LONG_REPORT/G_RUN_LONG_REPORT". If I give anything below this tags I do not see any variable getting the value assigned in the Burst output. But all the tags in the Control file are under some other hierarchy i.e /XLAAARPT/LIST_G_RUN_LONG_REPORT/G_RUN_LONG_REPORT/LIST_BALANCE_CCID/BALANCE_CCID/LIST_CCID_S/CCID_S/LIST_PERIOD_S/PERIOD_S.
The SEGMENT2 and BAL_DATA are under the above mentioned hierarchy and these do not get passed. The other variables like CP_REQUESTED_BY,CP_SUBJECT,CF_1 are assigned in the afterTrigger section in the XML and getting Null values.
Thanks,
Ashwini

Utilizing XML Publisher Report Bursting Program user-variables

When running the XML Publisher Report Bursting Program against a bursting control file, I see the following in the log:
Bursting propertes.....
{user-variable:cp:territory=US, user-variable:cp:ReportRequestID=4413342, user-variable:cp:language=en, user-variable:cp:responsibility=20678, user-variable.OA_MEDIA=http://hostname:8000/OA_MEDIA, burstng-source=EBS, user-variable:cp:DebugFlag=N, user-variable:cp:parent_request_id=4413342, user-variable:cp:locale=en-US, user-variable:cp:user=USER, user-variable:cp:application_short_name=XDO, user-variable:cp:request_id=4413368, user-variable:cp:org_id=204, user-variable:cp:reportdescription=Report Name, user-variable:cp:Dummy for Data Security=Y}
I would like to reference one or more of these in
1. My bursting control file
2. My template (to be output in final PDF).
I cannot seem to get this to work in my bursting control file by referencing:
${cp:user} (note that it just returns the word 'null' here instead of the value)
nor can I get it to work in my RTF template by referencing:
<?xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX, ‘cp:user’)?>
Should this work, or I am missing something?
Thanks

Thanks Ike, it likely would. The thing I keep coming back to is an example in the BIP Developer's Guide that suggests you can set a property and have it made available:
DocumentProcessor dp = new DocumentProcessor (cfgFile, xmlFile, dir);
Properties prop= new Properties();
prop.put("user-variable:ADMIN_EMAIL","[email protected]");
dp.setConfig(prop);
dp.process()
Seems to me that the work going on behind the scenes here (based on log statements alone) suggest the same sort of integration.. but I suppose not.
Thanks
