Date issue - Data Template

Hi,
I am using a data template plus CP combination to generate XMLP reports. From CP i am passing a standard date parameter to the data template. The issue is that there seems to be a problem accesing this variable in the data template SQL where conditions.
for ex:-
The value that CP passes => "2007-05-11 00:00:00.0"
In data template the parameter is like <parameter name="endDate" dataType="date"/>
The where condition is like h.end_date <= nvl(:endDate,h.end_date)
Here :endDate is always null. Interestingly in the XML output the date value is displayed properly for the parameter endDate like <endDate>2007-05-11 00:00:00.0</endDate>
What is the issue here. Pls. suggest on how to handle dates.
Thanks,
Suresh.

Data Template Issue

Hi,
I am just starting off with Data templates, and am facing some strange issues.
I am trying to extract all the employees for all the departments and print the department level salary and Grand Total (total salary of all the departments).
The DT that i am using is :
<dataTemplate name="Emp" defaultPackage="" description="Employees: Sample Data Template">

<property name="include_parameters" value="true"/>

                    from scott.dept

                         DEPTNO

<element name ="SAL" value="SAL" function=""/>
     <element name ="COMM" value="COMM" function=""/>
</group>
</group>
</dataStructure>
</dataTemplate>
When I run this from the Concurrent Program, It gets the correct data for Department 10, But for Depts 20,30 and 40, it again prints the same employee record as that of dept 10.
I am not sure where i am going wrong.

Hi,
Combining into 1 query will not always be feasible. The example in question is very elementary. However, real life problems would be very complex and would require different queries to be joined.
From the user guide:
"XML Publisher tests have shown that using bind variables is more efficient than using the link tag."
I even tried with <link> (from another example on the XML Publisher blog (http://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/2007/02/16#a147) but it gives me more errors:
<sqlStatement name="Q1">
<![CDATA[
    SELECT DEPTNO,DNAME,LOC from scott.dept
    order by deptno ]]>
</sqlStatement>
<sqlStatement name="Q2">
<![CDATA[
     SELECT DEPTNO, EMPNO,ENAME,JOB,MGR,HIREDATE,SAL,nvl(COMM,0) COMM
     from scott.EMP ]]>
</sqlStatement>
<link name="DEPTEMP_LINK" parentQuery="Q1" parentColumn="DEPTNO" childQuery="Q2" childColumn="DEPTNO"/>
I get the following runtime error:

Issues with using Outer join in Data Template

Hi all,
this is my data in two tables .
Table Ronny1
colA colB
1 u
2 v
3 x
Table Ronny2
colC colD
1 q
2 r
This is my data template
<dataTemplate name="MGF" dataSourceRef="Source1">
     <dataQuery>
          <sqlStatement name="Q1" dataSourceRef="Source1">
               <![CDATA[select C, D from Ronny2]]>
          </sqlStatement>
          <sqlStatement name="Q2" dataSourceRef="Source2">
               <![CDATA[select A , B from lokesh1 where A = :C]]>
          </sqlStatement>
     </dataQuery>
     <dataStructure>
          <group name="G1" source="Q1">
               <group name="G2" source="Q2">
                    <element name="A" value="A"/>
                    <element name="B" value="B"/>
               </group>
          </group>
     </dataStructure>
</dataTemplate>
Now this would give me result as
A B
1 u
2 v
however my requirement is this
A B
1 u
2 v
3 x
that is, i want to display all the rows of table Ronny1 and matching rows from table Ronny2. I tried modifiying my second sql as
<![CDATA[select A , B from lokesh1 where A = :C (+)]]> ( using a outer join)
but this does give me correct data and comes back with the cartesion product.
Can anyone please answer this for me that how can we use the outer join in data templaes.
Thanks
Ronny

hey vetsrini,
sorry for the confusion here,
actually i want to display all the rows from table Ronny1 and i am also pulling in the matching rows from table Ronny2 and my data structure looks as ( pulling in column D from table Ronny2)
<dataStructure>
<group name="G1" source="Q1">
<group name="G2" source="Q2">
<element name="A" value="A"/>
<element name="B" value="B"/>
<element name="D" value="D"/>
</group>
</group>
</dataStructure>
and this is what i want the output to be
A B D
1 u q
2 v r
3 x
Hence the row where A <> C the data in the D column will be null, same as in the case of outer join.
any suggestions
Thx
Ronny

Go to DSO -> manage.
On content Tab, you get option for selective deletion (last button "selective").
Mention your selections inside Delete Selection & start the job.
This will delete the selected data only from active table.
Please note the data from change log will not be deleted. No selective deletion is possible on Change log. However, you can delete the older change logs if not necessary. Go to Environment -> Delete Change Log Data & specify the date or days.

Report Based on XML Data Template is timing out

Hi there,
i have an XML publisher report based on an XML data template that i've written. The report is working fine except when there is huge data that is supposed to come out, its timing out. Ive set the db_fetch_size parameter to 20 and scalable_mode to on but its still timing out.
If anyone has a solutiom or a thought it would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

Thanks for the reply.
Well when i'm opening the report , i wait for about 15 seconds then 'Page Cannot be Displayed' appears on my browser. I'm having this case only when i'm expecting huge data. By huge data i mean that the report gets informations about a deal, when the deal has 10 categories the report runs fine, but when i add all catgories, about 1000, it gives me the 'Page cannot be displayed' error. I'm guessing its a time out issue since i've set the scalable_mode parameter to on. Any thoughts ???

Problem with parameters in Data Template

Hello,
I created some reports using the data template and didn't have any problems. I wanted to change the name of a couple of my parameters and now I can't get any data returned in my reports. If I remove the parameters data is returned or if I rename the parameters to something else data is returned. It seems like it has something to do with these two names of the parameters that I'm using that is causing the report not to run, but I have no idea why or where to even look.
Here is my example report:
With parameter names P_JUR and P_TAXYR my report runs without any problems.
<dataTemplate name="test" description="test Report">
     <parameters>
          <parameter name="P_JUR" dataType="character"/>
          <parameter name="P_TAXYR" dataType="number"/>
     </parameters>
     <dataQuery>
          <sqlStatement name="RP"><![CDATA[select p.jur, p.parid, p.taxyr,
       p.luc, p.nbhd, o.own1, p.adrno,
       p.adrdir||decode(p.adrdir,'','',' ')||p.adrstr||decode(p.adrsuf,'','',' ')||p.adrsuf addr
        from pardat p, owndat o
where p.jur = o.jur
   and p.parid = o.parid
   and p.taxyr = o.taxyr
   and p.cur = o.cur
     and p.cur = 'Y'
   and p.jur = :p_jur
   and p.taxyr = :p_taxyr
and rownum < 10]]></sqlStatement>
     </dataQuery>
     <dataTrigger name="beforeReport" source="bipub.SETUSERIDSESSION(:P_USERNAME)"/>
     <dataStructure>
          <group name="RP" source="RP">
               <element name="JUR" value="JUR"/>
               <element name="PARID" value="PARID"/>
               <element name="TAXYR" value="TAXYR"/>
               <element name="CMAP" value="CMAP"/>
               <element name="LUC" value="LUC"/>
               <element name="OWN1" value="OWN1"/>
               <element name="NBHD" value="NBHD"/>
               <element name="ADRNO" value="ADRNO"/>
               <element name="ADDR" value="ADDR"/>
          </group>
     </dataStructure>
</dataTemplate>
As soon as I change my parameters and remove the "P_" - changed to JUR and TAXYR my report no longer returns data:
<dataTemplate name="test" description="test Report">
     <parameters>
          <parameter name="JUR" dataType="character"/>
          <parameter name="TAXYR" dataType="number"/>
     </parameters>
     <dataQuery>
          <sqlStatement name="RP"><![CDATA[select p.jur, p.parid, p.taxyr,
       p.luc, p.nbhd, o.own1, p.adrno,
       p.adrdir||decode(p.adrdir,'','',' ')||p.adrstr||decode(p.adrsuf,'','',' ')||p.adrsuf addr
        from pardat p, owndat o
where p.jur = o.jur
   and p.parid = o.parid
   and p.taxyr = o.taxyr
   and p.cur = o.cur
     and p.cur = 'Y'
   and p.jur = :jur
   and p.taxyr = :taxyr
and rownum < 10]]></sqlStatement>
     </dataQuery>
     <dataTrigger name="beforeReport" source="bipub.SETUSERIDSESSION(:P_USERNAME)"/>
     <dataStructure>
          <group name="RP" source="RP">
               <element name="JUR" value="JUR"/>
               <element name="PARID" value="PARID"/>
               <element name="TAXYR" value="TAXYR"/>
               <element name="CMAP" value="CMAP"/>
               <element name="LUC" value="LUC"/>
               <element name="OWN1" value="OWN1"/>
               <element name="NBHD" value="NBHD"/>
               <element name="ADRNO" value="ADRNO"/>
               <element name="ADDR" value="ADDR"/>
          </group>
     </dataStructure>
</dataTemplate>
I know it's getting my values because when I run the report I get this output:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <TEST>
<JUR>040</JUR>
<TAXYR>2008.0</TAXYR>
<LIST_RP />
</TEST>
I can change the parameter names to BOB, TOM, A, B, C, etc. and the report runs fine. It's just those two parameters JUR and TAXYR that do not work. I'm integrating this with another system which is why it's important is uses JUR and TAXYR. Anyone have any idea where to check or what I can check to see why it wouldn't work with only those two parameter names?
Thanks

Always keep the parameter name with some standard :) to avoid these kind of issues.
keep PARAM_XYZ
like PARAM_TZXYR , PARAM_JUR

Hi Rani,
I see one issue in the Q2 with the where statement:
and pv.segment1=(pv.segment1=:VENDOR_NUM or pv.vendor_name=:VENDOR_NAME)
the right one should be
and pv.vendor_id = :VEN_VENDOR_ID
the variable VEN_VENDOR_ID you have to select from the first query Q1. Add here after select
pv.vendor_id VEN_VENDOR_ID,
Regarding the other question about the data types, well, number and varchar2 is fine, perhaps char also, but go with varchar2 instead.
One last note: you should not mix uppercase and lowercase, keep it clear and structured, check your element names and values.
Best Regards
Volker

Generally the DBAs are aware of the OPP service log. They can tell you the cause of the problem.
Anyway, how did you resolve the issue?

Bursting entire report as a single file by using Data Template

Hi,
I have created a report by using data template, which consists of 3 queries.
Is it possible to burst the entire report in one single file? without splitting based on any criteria?
Something like I want to use a constant value key so that report will split into one file ONLY.
Please advice.
Regards
Muarli.

You are right in saying that I dont want to use the burst option.. but the problem with FTP delivery, is that I can't pass the date parameter in the file name. Only fixed single file name is provided there..
Work around for this is to use bursting option to pass corresponding parameter value in output file.
I'm facing the problem that by using data template source, I can't burst in enterprise edition based on SQL statement.
Getting the below error:
oracle.apps.xdo.servlet.scheduler.ProcessingException: java.lang.NullPointerException
     at oracle.apps.xdo.servlet.scheduler.XDOJob.runBurstingReport(XDOJob.java:2116)

     Delivery Node           /SCHEME_SETT_SUMMARY/LIST_G_VALUE_DATE/G_VALUE_DATE/ssc_code
But the same report is running and I can schedule by using FTP delivery without bursting option successfully.
Please assist in resolving this issue.

Murali.

Many Thanks,

Hi Fred,
Thanks for your response. The issue was actually with the xml format. I had missed '?' at the end of 1st line of the xml.
