Choose statement in rtf template

Hi Gurus!
I'm building a report on rtf template (Bi Publisher Addin for MSword).
If I insert a "Choose statement", every time I run the report the content of choose go on a new row.
I want to avoid this behavior and that the "choose" is show on the row where i put it in the template builder.
Any Idea?
Regards,
Daniele

not exactly a guru, but have you investigated using the @inlines context in your template?
e.g.
My condition was <?choose@inlines:?><?when@inlines:MY_CONDITION='1'?>One<?end when?>
<?when@inlines:MY_CONDITION='2'?>Two<?end when?>
<?otherwise@inlines:?>something completely different<?end otherwise?>
<?end choose?>

Conditional statements, in the user guide or the report developer guide, depending on the version you use.
Page 7-62 in the 10.1.3.2 user guide:
Use an if statement to define a simple condition; for example, if a data field is a specific value.
1. Insert the following syntax to designate the beginning of the conditional area.
<?if:condition?>
2. Insert the following syntax at the end of the conditional area: <?end if?>.
For example, to set up the Payables Invoice Register to display invoices only when the Supplier name is "Company A", insert the syntax <?if:VENDOR_NAME='COMPANYA'?> before the Supplier field on the template.
Enter the <?end if?> tag after the invoices table.Thanks for the reply. But what about two conditions in one if statement? That was my question. :)

BI Publisher : SELECT statement in RTF template

Hi Guys
I have written a BI Publisher Report using XML file created from Oracle Reports(in Oracle Apps).
Repors runs from Oracle Apps perfectly ok. Now I need to fetch some data from couple of tables and display on the Report.
I am wondering whether I can directly code SELECT statement in RTF file rather than messing with Oracle Report(.rdf) file.
Please advise.
Thanks and Regards
Vijay

Hey Vijay,
You cannot query in RTF using select :)..
You have to mess/play with RDF to do it ;)
Oh wait, did i say , we cannot in RTF, we can , but that is difficult approach to go with., keep this as an end of the world option.

And/or if statement in rtf templates.

Hi all,
I'm using XML Publisher 4.5.
I have created a word template file (rtf) for my reports. I need to be able to show some content in the template file by using and and/or if statement.
fx. <?if:doc_type='STANDARD'?> OR <?if:doc_type='DEFAULT'?>
How can I do this?
In advance thank you.
Best regards
Kenneth

Hi D,
Thank you for your answer.
I have seriously thought about that solution; but I don't think it's a smart way to do it.
If i do it like that, i need to copy the whole table and paste it inside the if statements.
I have two xml elements that I need to make the decisions on. POH_PO_TYPE & CP_RELEASE_NUM.
POH_PO_TYPE can be: STANDARD, RELEASE or BLANKET.
CP_RELEASE_NUM can be: '' or N
If POH_PO_TYPE is RELEASE AND CP_RELEASE_NUM is not ''
OR POH_PO_TYPE is STANDARD
OR POH_PO_TYPE is BLANKET AND CP_RELEASE_NUM is ''
THEN show table (which contains the whole PO).
It shall show the content of the PO in any of these cases.

Problem with IF THEN ELSE in RTF template

HI ALL,
I have two layouts in the RTF template. Based on the parameter value it has to show the value.
For example if P_State='United States' then first layout should come. else second one should come.
I tried to use the IF Then else logic through the form field but i am getting error.
Please help on this to get it.
Regards
Boopathi

You can do that.
i guess, the syntax you are using is wrong.
please refer documentation or this forum for choose:
Use choose statement. it s better.
Or send me the template to my id in my profile. or upload it here http://apps2fusion.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=60

Subtrating variables in RTF templates

Hi,
I am trying to subtract two variables, but it seems something is wrong.Please help me out.
Here's my code:
<?choose:?>
<?when:xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'Var2')=(xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'Var1'))?>-<?end when?>
<?otherwise:?><?xdoxslt:div((xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'Var2')-xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'Var1')),xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'Var1'))?><?end otherwise?>

I am trying to subtract dates in an RTF template
<?xdofx:if substr(EXP1_3,1,10) - substr(INVOICE_DT,1,10) >= 91 then (PYMNT_GROSS_AMT) end if?>

My EXP1_3 value is 05/31/2012 and one of my INVOICE_DT values is 04/12/2012,, in which case this statement should NOT be true and it should not return the value of PYMNT_GROSS_AMT,,but it does ?

Resetting Header and Footer in RTF templates

Hi,
I developed an RTF template (template 1). This template contains start:body and end body for printing the header and footer in all pages. After printing this template then i have to call another template(template 2) from this. I called the template (template 2) using call statement. But the probelm is that the header and footer of template1 is printed in the output of template2 .
I dont want to print this header and footer for template 2. Can anyone please suggest me in doing this. I placed start:body and end body in the second template with the assumption that 1st template's header and footer will be overwritten. But if i preview then am getting the error
Font Dir: C:\Program Files\Oracle\XML Publisher Desktop\Template Builder for Word\fonts
Run XDO Start
RTFProcessor setLocale: en-us
FOProcessor setData: C:\Documents and Settings\kpoda\Desktop\Invoice Printing Efficiencies\Sample XML Data\Sample Output4.xml
FOProcessor setLocale: en-us
each
Please sugget.
Thanks

Hi,
Do you have two templates (template1 & template2) that you want to display in the same document where the pages for template1 has one set of header and footers; and template2 has another set of header and footer?
If that is the case you can simply create a new section in your rtf template so you have section1 and section2.
In the body of section1 you call template1 and template2 in the body of section2.
You can then have different header and footers for the two templates in the same document.

In my report I have to get these record typpes as field name dynamically whichever is available in that lookup and record values against them.
its a BI Publisher report.
please suggest

if you have data in db then you can create xml with needed structure
and so you can create bip report
do you have errors or .... ?

Insert Image in RTF Template Conditionally

Can an image be inserted into an RTF Template using an If-Then statement? Like this:
<?if:FIELD1='IMAGE1' 'insert IMAGE1' else 'insert IMAGE2'?>
If this is possible what syntax needs to be where the example says 'insert IMAGE1'? The images are jpg files that exist on a local PC but the template will run on a Unix machine.
Is there a way to do this? Thank you very much.
James

you can try like this
<?template:image?>
<?if:FIELD1='IMAGE1'?>
IMAGE1
<?end if?>
<?if:FIELD1!='IMAGE1'?>
IMAGE2
<?end if?>
<?end template?>
use this tag where u need image <?call:image?>

"Or" condition in RTF Template

Hello,
In my RTF template, I try to test a statement for two values. I tried
<?xdofx:if :A!='0' or B!= '0'?>
<?if:A!='0' or B != '0'?>
It doesn't work : there isn't any error but the result is wrong.
Is there another syntax I've got to use ?
Thanks

Issue in RTF Template

Hi All,
Could you please solve the following requirement:
Requirement: In my RTF Template for the fisrst page we are displaying parameters of the report.
In the second page we have 2 tables one is for statement and other one is for Receipt.
My requirement is in the second page i need to display "statement table" at the starting of
second page[i.e @Header part] and "receipt table" at the end of the second page[i.e @tailor part].
My issue is if statement table is having many rows some of the rows are skipped and displayed at 3rd page.and the receipt table is @ 2nd page.
If receipt table is having many rows it is breks into two dispalyed at the end of second page and starting of 3rd page.
Can anyone please provide me the solution.
Thanks in Advance,
Dhanasurya

Hi Dhanasurya,
It sounds like you are using headers and footers, and that what you seeing is standard expected functionality.
You could try extending your header/footer regions to make them bigger, but if there are too many rows of course then the tables will break across pages.
Depending on your requirements you could limit the number of rows so they always if on one page, otherwise you'd need to either accept the data will break across pages, or implement something like Fixed Row Enumeration.

Condtions on Watermark in RTF template

How to use the conditions on watermark in RTF template.
How to display the Instances names on back ground of the RTF template.If it is DEV instance it should display as "This is DEV Document",if it is TST instance it should display as "This is TST Document".
For this I am using the water mark.I have written the condition on watermark text field.
<?if: INSTANCE_NAME!='PROD'?>This is DEV Document <?end if?>
In the above statement is displaying as 'This is DEV Document' on DEV instance.But if I move the same code into PROD instance it is displaying the same message.(Actually on PROD it should not display the message)
I think this condition is not working.(I think text message is displaying as it is.)
Please any body help/suggest/guide me to resolve this issue.
Thanks & Regards,

check the xml file and see if instance name is populated correctly.
for testing purpose try the reverse way around and print only if the instance_name = 'DEV'

Find and replace in RTF Template

Hi,
I'm using a if statement in my template, but i need to change a value within this statement. It's being used multiple times, therefor it would be easier to do a find and replace, is there a way to do a find and replace within the RTF template? Already openede it in Notepad++, but no luck
Osman

I don't think there is a way to find and replace all.. You can view all the code by using Field Browser -> Show All and then replace the code and update one by one from there..
Thanks,
