BI 11.1.1.5 XLS Template Builder

In 11.1.1.5 new XLS Template Builder appears... But where I can find it?
I download BI Office and install it on client. Open Excel and try to login to BI server. In loging dialog I put BI server hostname. But I get an error trying to connect to http://biserverhost:80/bioffice/services/saw?WSDL.
When I try to open such page on BI server - I get same error.

When I put this link in client browser http://serverhost:9704/bioffice/services/saw?WSDL - all is OK.
When in Login dialog put :
Server Name: server1
Server BI office: serverhost
port:9704,
When test connection - I get an error:
Error while connection: http://serverhost:9704/bioffice/services/saw?WSDL

Template Builder (XML Publisher Report) for Open Office

Hi,
Do any body has any idea, if can have template builder for Open Office also, My company has un installed MS Office from my machine, and they dont have license now.
Thanks and Regards,
Nidhi Gupta

Hi All,
I think Oracle can provide a BI Publisher Software for the Open Office, since the licencing cost for MS Office is very high.
"OpenOffice Writer" is a open source alternative to MS Word and can be used on Linux. If I am using Linux OS and have to work on BI Publisher templates then certainly I will have to install Windows or use WINE ( I donno how it works but heard of it)
Other Oracle tools such as SQL Developer, etc are platform independent.. then why only BI Publisher is limited for windows/MS Office.
Tim,
Can you please answer..
I think it should integrate with OpenOffice too!!

Dynamic image does not work in the template builder plug-in (Apex-BI Intgr)

Hi all, I posted this problem in the BI Publisher topic but nobody responded maybe this is because mods thought this is an Apex-BI integration issue.
If I'm in the wrong place, please do warn me.
The documentation says:
Direct Insertion
Insert the jpg, gif, or png image directly in your template.
...This works obviously
URL Reference
1. Insert a dummy image in your template.
2. In Microsoft Word's Format Picture dialog box select the Web tab. Enter the following syntax in the Alternative text region to reference the image URL:
url:{'http://image location'}
For example, enter: url:{'http://www.oracle.com/images/ora_log.gif'}
...This works too when I hardcode an url as url:{'http://www.google.com.tr/images/firefox/mobiledownload.png'}
Element Reference from XML File
1. Insert a dummy image in your template.
2. In Microsoft Word's Format Picture dialog box select the Web tab. Enter the following syntax in the Alternative text region to reference the image URL:
url:{IMAGE_LOCATION}
where IMAGE_LOCATION is an element from your XML file that holds the full URL to the image.
...This, however, does not work.
I use Apex' report query tool and My query is like
select 'http://www.google.com.tr/images/firefox/mobiledownload.png' IMAGE_LOCATION from ... (a single result set for my template)
the xml data is generated with an IMAGE_LOCATION tag. I load it to word template plug-in. The Url successfully displays in the report if I make it a plain-simple field.
But when it's in the image format->web->alt text as url:{IMAGE_LOCATION} no image displayed.
I need to keep this design procedure simple so a simple word user could design a report via using just template builder plug-in. I don't wish to explore the xsl-fo area...yet.
Could you tell me why I can't get this url:{IMAGE_LOCATION} to work?
Regards
PS: My BI version: 10.1.3.4.1

Hi Oeren,
your steps seem basically to be correct. I have a tutorial how to do this here (in german)
http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/de/community/apex/tipps/pdf-dyn-images/index.html
when you see the URL corrently as long as you have it as a plain text field, the XML tag and the
referencing seem to be OK.
Here are two thought - the issue might be one of these ...
How did you insert the dummy image into the word document - did you do it via "insert" or
via "link to file". "Link to File" does not work - you must choose the simple "insert".
Another one: Does your BI Server have a connection to the internet - is the proxy server correctly set ..?
Does this help ..?

Hi,

<G_REQ>
<BUYER_ID>DENIECE</BUYER_ID>
<BUYER_GROUP>1</BUYER_GROUP>
<BUYER_SUBGROUP>ADMIN</BUYER_SUBGROUP>

</LIST_G_REQ>
So to group by BUYER_SUBGROUP, your code will be
<?for-each-group:G_REC;BUYER_SUBGROUP?>
<?end for-each?>
I dont know what you mean by BUYER_GROUP_TOTAL and BUYER_SUBGROUP_TOTAL here.

XML Publisher Template Builder for Adobe Acrobat

Need a XML Publisher Template Builder for adobe acrobat as is available for word.

I did so.. however, publisher is not able to substitute xsl syntax by the actual value..
eg.
i had a <?X_PO_NUM?> in word (either using text field or manually writing this..) and i converted the word doc into pdf using third party s/w..
when i uploaded this template pdf with sample data file using xmlp admin repsonsibility, and tried to preview the output,
substitution is not happening..
the requirement here is, to have some input fields in final PDF output for which report-users should be able to type values in.
for which I assume initial template has to be in PDF itself..
any ideas or pointers will be much appreciated..

Preview Etext template in XML Publisher Desktop (Template Builder)

Is there a way, or are there plans, to be able to preview an eText template using the template builder, in MS Word, like you can with PDF type templates. This is a great feature when creating PDF output and saves a lot of time. It would be great to be able to do the same for eText templates.
Cheers,
Dave

You can create a dummy data definition and dummy template(etext) in xml publisher admin responsibility.
For the Data definition , in the bottom if you scroll down you will see a link for upload preview xml data file.
After uploading the xml file access your template and you can see a preview icon.If you click it you will see a txt file popping up
thanks

Template Builder (BIPublisherDesktop.exe) installation for multiple users

Hello,
I tried to install version 10.1.3.4 of the template builder on a Citrix server (Metaframe 4.0) running under Windows 2003 SP2, and with Office 2003. Framework .NET 2.0 and JRE Sun 1.6 are also installed.
It works, but, in Word 2003, the "Oracle BI Publisher" menu is only available for the user who have made the installation. Other users can"t see it ?
I have monitored the registry during installation, and most of the keys are created in HKEY_CURRENT_USER, explaining why others can't see it.
Is there a way to make one install available for all users ?
Thanks.

Template Builder error(unable to load data)

Hi All.
When I try to load xml data into my document the template builder throws up the follwoing error
The macro cannot be found or has been disabled because of you macro security settings
This message can appear if:
The macro was deleted from the template.
The template was not loaded or referenced in the Templates and Add-ins command.
The macro was turned off by the macro security settings of your system.
If the macro security settings are not allowing the macro to run, you should confirm the origin of the macro to be sure it can be trusted (contact the developer or the source for the macro). You can temporarily lower your macro security level to Medium, close the file, and then re-open it and enable each of the macros that you want to run. If you do change your macro security settings, be sure to raise them again after you accept the macro or trust the template the macro is stored in (usually requires copying the template to the same folder as other trusted templates).
If the macro is not accessible because the template is not loaded, click Tools | Templates and Add-ins and browse to the template and click either Attach or Add. If the macro is not in the template, you may need to copy the macro from one template to another. Click the Organizer button at the bottom of the Templates and Add-ins dialog to start the Organizer utility.
More information about this error message online. The macro setting in my document was set to medium.
Tool-->>macro-->>security under security level tab it is medium.
I followed all the steps mentioned in Tim's blog..but it didn't help any..

Configuration Template Builder WL8.1 does not work

Hello,
     After spending nearly 2 days now trying to get a Configuration Template
built, I've concluded this simply does not work. Has anyone used the
Config Template builder to package a semi-complex application on top of WLI?
     I'm trying to have 2 of my applications, the JMS and JDBC resources,
and a WLI event generator packaged up for easy deployment to someone
else's server configuration. The problem with this is that there are
required resources for WLI, namely a database. The Pointbase database
included for WLI does not get included in the template automatically.
There are also some flat-out bugs:
If you choose to include a resource adapter "application", such as
jms-xa-adp.rar, the template builder does not bundle this in the
template and deploy it correctly. The template builder restricts you to
putting applications in the relative path starting at ./
For jms-xa-adp.rar, its original location is in $WL_HOME/server/lib, and
the template builder defaults to put it in ./lib of your template.
However, when you create a domain with the template, jms-xa-adp.rar does
not get placed in your ./lib directory. This causes you to then go and
manually edit your config.xml to point back at $WL_HOME/server/lib or to
manually copy jms-xa-adp.rar into your ./lib directory (which the
template mechanism should do for you).
Relative paths in the config.xml file require you to execute the config
builder from the directory of the domain you are making a template for.
The template builder should instead be smart enough to realize that
relative paths in the config.xml file are relative to the directory that
the config.xml is in, not the one you are running the template builder
from. You'll get an error when trying to create the template cause it
won't find the resources if you're not in that directory.
If anyone has successfully used this to package a WLI application in a
template, please share your experiences and how to do so. In the
meantime, I'm claiming there is no way to nicely package up a server
configuration for a WLI app in Weblogic, and this is a big shortcoming.
Weblogic needs a simple transferrable way of creating server
configurations (it tries to do this with the template, but that is
failing). With JBoss, for example, you simply copy your server directory
into another installation. This doesn't work with Weblogic unfortunately
because it puts hard-coded paths in the config.xml file.
Thanks

Russ,
     Thank you for the detailed responses. The only one I'm currently
struggling with still is the #5, with the scripts between the two. One
of the major benefits of using a J2EE App Server is supposed to be the
portability between servers. I find it disconcerting that BEA Weblogic
restricts me to the platform I created the domain on by creating
platform-specific startup/shutdown scripts for only the platform created
on. It's understandable that a script converter would be difficult, but
at least both the .sh/.cmd files should be created from the first time
you make a domain. If the user only wants one or the other, they can
delete the appropriate one. It's also understandable that the
users/deployers shouldn't have to manually convert a startup/shutdown
script to take the domain to a different box.
     JBoss clearly has BEA beat on ease of deployment here. Their model is
the concept I'm thinking of: you have some generic startup/shutdown
scripts that can load a platform-independent server configuration. You
truly can copy directories as-is between JBoss installations.
     I was hoping to package up a server domain for use on any of the
supported platforms, but since I don't have the time to manually convert
the startup/shutdown scripts, I'm going to have to tell people it's only
for Solaris now.
     Hopefully BEA can fix this in a future SP. There's no need for this
platform-dependency. Also, if the Windows version can generate both
scripts at creation time, then the Solaris should be able to do this as
well (or at least give you the option).
Thanks again for the replies

Hi Steven,
I have several comments and questions about your last two posts. I will try to
address them in order.
1) "The Pointbase database included for WLI does not get included in the template
automatically."
     By default the template builder only includes the *.cmd and *.sh files in the
template from your domain directory. If you begin building with an existing
domain template all files that were in the template will get included. This was
done because there is no way for the builder to automatically determine all the
files that are required by your template/domain and we steered away from recursively
including all files from the directory so that unused files were not needlessly
included. We can extrapolate some files based on the application paths in the
config.xml, but the rest is left up to the template builder to be aware of what
is needed for their domain to run. So, if you need the Pointbase *.dbn and *.wal
files included in your template just select these files on the ?Add Files? panel
of the template builder and add them to the ?Domain Directory?.
2) ?If you choose to include a resource adapter "application", such as jms-xa-adp.rar,
the template builder does not bundle this in the template and deploy it correctly.?
     The template builder considers application files to be in two categories: Imported
or Internal. When you are at the ?Add Applications? panel of the builder you
will see a checklist of all the applications that are in the domain you selected.
On the right hand side there are two text fields. The top one displays the application
path as it is currently set in the config.xml of that domain. The bottom field
will be different depending on what category the application falls into. As you
click on each application in the list, you may notice that the bottom field may
change from an editable field titled ?Imported Application Path? to a non-editable
field titled ?Internal Application Path?. The difference between the two categories
is that an ?Imported? application?s files will be included in the template jar.
An ?Internal? application?s files will not be included in the template jar because
they are considered internal to the weblogic installation. The jms-xa-adp.rar
should fall into the internal category and should not get included in your template.
     From what you are describing it sounds like the builder attempted to import that
application when it should not have. In an attempt to recreate the problem you
are seeing I deployed that Connector Module through the WLS console and ended
up with an application path of ?C:\bea\weblogic81\server\lib? where ?C:\bea\weblogic81?
is my WL_HOME (a.k.a. USER_INSTALL_DIR). If I then attempt to build a template
from this domain, the builder recognizes this as an internal path and does not
include it inside my template. If the current application path you had looks
different from the one above, that may explain why the builder was attempting
to import it. What was the value of the ?Current Application Path? for that application
deployment?
3) ?Relative paths in the config.xml file require you to execute the config builder
from the directory of the domain you are making a template for.?
     The builder is ?smart? enough to determine relative paths. You should not have
to invoke it from the domain directory you are working with. There is a known
bug in the WebLogic Platform 8.1.1.0 release of the template builder that will
cause it to not find files with relative paths in your domain directory if the
application path in the config.xml is just a ?.?. If this is the case, you should
see a FileNotFoundException when you attempt to create the template. This will
be fixed in SP2 and you can work around this problem by changing those paths to
?./? instead. If this was not the case, what was the path the wizard choked
on?
4) ?Looking through the config file, it seems that it's all of the WLI components
that have absolute paths in the config file. In addition, BEA_WLS_DBMS_ADK has
an absolute path, not sure if that is WLI or WLS. ?
     BEA_WLS_DBMS_ADK is an integration application. If you created the original
domain using the configuration wizard most of the applications in an integration
enabled domain will reference paths inside of you installation directory or ?internal?
paths. For instance, I used the wizard to create a ?Basic WebLogic Integration
Domain?. The path for that application in this domain is: ?C:\bea\weblogic81/integration/adapters/dbms/lib/BEA_WLS_DBMS_ADK.ear?
where ?C:\bea\weblogic81? is my WL_HOME or USER_INSTALL_DIR. When I load this
domain into the builder it shows this application as ?internal? and the ?Internal
Application Path? is "$USER_INSTALL_DIR$/integration/adapters/dbms/lib/BEA_WLS_DBMS_ADK.ear".
This will be set as the path value of this application in the config.xml that
will be included in the template you build. When you later use the Configuration
Wizard on this template it will substitute the $USER_INSTALL_DIR$ to the value
of the installation directory of the machine you are creating it on.
     If you were to Change these to relative paths, as Mark previously suggested,
it will only work if you copy the domain directory to the same location relative
to your installation directory on the target machine. Also, if you copy the domain
in this manner you will more than likely run into problems with your start/stop
scripts and be forced to hand modify all the paths contained within. The configuration
wizard tries to alleviate these problems and make the configuration entirely portable.
This gives the user who creates the domain from your template the ability to
put it anywhere they want regardless of the paths in the config.xml.
5) ?However, there is another major problem with the Template Builder: it only
includes the startup/shutdown script for the platform you create the template
on. ???I built the template on Solaris with the UNIX scripts. However, I tried
to create a new config on Windows with this template, and the scripts were not
converted to .bat files!?
     As I stated previously, the builder will only include *.cmd and *.sh scripts
into your template by default. If you created the domain on a unix platform using
the configuration wizard it will not extract the *.cmd files since these aren?t
considered to be useful on unix. If you were then to attempt building a template
from this domain and take it onto a windows platform, it will obviously be missing
any windows scripts. Conversely, the wizard will extract *.sh scripts on windows
because they can still be useful if a user has an MKS or Cygwin type environment
installed. The config wizard and template builder do not have the ability to convert
scripts. The builder will only include existing scripts that are in your domain
directory and automatically determine any necessary string substitutions that
will be needed. Please note that since WebLogic is only supported on the NT/2K/XP
versions of windows you will find that the wizards use ?.cmd? files and not ?.bat?
files since these are more commonly associated with Win 95/98/ME.
     I will be happy to answer any more questions you may have and would also like
to take a look at your domain configuration to try and get a better understanding
of the problems you are encountering.
thanx,
russ

XML Publisher/Bi Publisher Using Oracle Package and MS Word Template builde

My Question is I want to know more about grouping of elements while creating reports in E business suite.
my approach should be 1. pl sql package with embedded XML data to create xml output. 2. Formatting the xml output using ms word template builder plugin.
My question is if grouping is required, then where should it be? While creating package to generate xml output or while formatting xml o/p in ms word?
I wanted to create a check cancellation report where the report should look like below.
Bank Name American express
Bank address 1 Cape town city Road
bank address 2 Lane 2
Bank City Cape town
Branch Docara v'dola
Check number Amount Vendor Status
1023423 225 huawei Voided
1023430 500 Ericson Voided
Signature
Now for above grouping I Written some thing like below package:
But I want to know Had I not done the grouping in Package, would it have still be possible to do the grouping in MS Word template builder?
To simply fy question: If I had not written 2 cursors and written 1 simple cursor and had got simple 1 after 1 fields without any specific grouping in ora package, would it have been possible to do the same grouping while formatting the xml output in MS word template builder?
the part of code enclosed.

Hi,
You can do grouping in either place. But ideally to avoid re-grouping in the BI Publisher Template your XML would be generated such that it is appropriate for your template.
This is really important when it comes to very large datasets as you should avoid regrouping in the template in this case.

RTF file Template Builder Clarification

I have a custom report which uses XML publisher. The RTF file has constraint with page break. i.e. If total records exceeds 30 then print another page. The problem is 30 records are embedding in single page, but going into another page. so lot of pages are required to print the whole report. I updated the page count from 30 to 20 so that it will fit properly. But still it is not updating.
here is the procedure I used to update the filed.
Template Builder->Tools->Field Browser
selected the Field, then in the edit box, I updated, I clicked UPDATE button, then REFRESH button and then CLOSE button.
It is not saving the field rather I lost all XML end tags. I am not sure why it is happening. Is there any other place which we have edit/modify the logic.
Since it is not saving, I am editing some column and trying to save it. But I am getting warning message after the execution of report. The reason is xml end tags are not present.
appreciate your help.
Thanks!!

Sounds weird. How are you testing the modified RTF?
