Date Parameter in XML Publisher Enterprise

Hello,
Can someone tell me how to set up a date parameter in XML Publisher Enterprise? I cannot seem to get the right format for a date parameter, so my report will run. This report requires a date to be entered before the report can run. I am trying to use the format 'YYYY-MM-DD'.
Any help would be greatly appreciated...
Thank you,
Susan

Hi Susan,
I also had some problems but found out the spelling is the key, so letters for day and years has to be small letter, letter for month has to be capital - a sample date format looks like
dd-MM-yyyy ( check the possible formats of fields in RTF-Templates! )
But anyway using date parameters seems a little instable in 5.6.2 - I have to save the parameter all the time even if I didn't change anything otherwise there was runtime errors

Xml publisher enterprise!!! create rtf file dynamically with load xml data

i am new to xml publisher enterprise , i want a solution for this question ...
i want create rtf file dynamically with loading xml data....means i wrote a program in jsp where the the output in xml file simultaneously create rtf file..but i enable load the xml data in rtf file but when i goto rtf file from where data in that load xml then it genrate the columns..but i want in dynamiclly to load the data will you please guide me ......

Hi Atiq
Im not quite clear on the requirement here:
1. Do you just want to be able to extract the data and apply a template to the XML data from your jdp and render output?
If so then you can use the XMLP APIs ... the are in the user guide. Particularly:
RTFProcessor - converts RTF template to XSLFO stylesheet
FOProcessor - takes, XML data, XSLFO stylesheet and output format and generates the required output.
2. Do you want a template that will accept any data and just format it into rows and columns ? This can be written but your XML structure is going to have to be static, the data of course can be dynamic.

Hi Vladimir
Can you test the data template posted here. http://static7.userland.com/oracle/gems/leslieStuddard/EMPLOYEES.xml
It needs to connect to the sample scott schema, hopefully you have it installed?
Let me know if you get the same error.

XML Publisher Enterprise Installation

I installed Xml Publisher Enterprise version 5.6.2 to our test PC with its own oracle home as c:\ora_xmlp. The installation ran successfully. But when I ran xmlpserverstart.bat, it stopped at the line: "Oracle containers for J2EE log (10.1.3.0) initialized..." and didn't go on. Should I use the same path as oracle database or application server?
Please help, Thanks.
- Jessie

Hi Jessie.
That's what it's supposed to do. That message means the OC4J engine started properly. Now you can access the application by going to:
http://localhost:15101/xmlpserver
unless you changed anything in the install (which I'm assuming from the formulation of your note is nothing).
Cheers,
Dave

Issue using data link in XML Publisher

Dear All,
I am new to XML Publisher, for the first time trying data link concept in XML Publisher tool. The issue is very simple, I have two queries Q1(say it fetches sales_order_number, application_name ) and Q2 (say it fetches sales_order_number , error_number, error_description). And sales_order_number is passed as input using data link to Query Q2 from query Q1 and Q2 will retrive more than one row for a given sales_order_number.
Say for a given dept_name 1001 the output will be something similiar like
Q1:
SO# | Appl.Name
1001 | 'Invoice '
Q2:
SO# | Error.# | Error Desc
1001 | 1512 | No Data Found
1001 | 1513 | Invalid Entry
1001 | 2674 | Error while inserting the record
and the query which I have used in XML template goes like this
<dataQuery>
<sqlStatement name="Q1">
<![CDATA[select sales_order_number, application_name
                  from T1
                 where sales_order_number = :in_sales_order_num]]>
</sqlStatement>
<sqlStatement name="LINES">
<![CDATA[
select sales_order_number , error_number, error_description
from T2]]>
</sqlStatement>
<link name="Dummy_LINK" parentQuery="Q1" parentColumn="sales_order_number" childQuery="Q2" childColumn="sales_order_number" condition="="/>
</dataQuery>
<daraStructure/>
And the grouping is as follows
<group name="G_Q1" source="Q1">
     <element name="sales_order_number" value="sales_order_number"/>
     <element name="application_name" value="application_name"/>
<group name="G_Q2" source="Q2">
     <element name="sales_order_number" value="sales_order_number"/>
     <element name="error_number" value="error_number"/>
     <element name="error_description" value="error_description"/>
</group>
</group>
And in the RTF template I have properly used <?for-each:G_Q1?> <?for-each:G_Q2?>- --
<?end for-each?><?end for-each?>
Ideally the header (Q1) should have one row and the lines (Q2) should have 3 rows. But the issue here is even Q1 produces 3 rows.
If in case Q2 has 4 records, then Q1 also plots 4 records in the report output. Hope I am explaining the issue correctly. Any help to resolve the issue would be a great. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Antony.

<?if: (TYPE='A') or (TYPE= 'B')?><TABLE STRUCTURE><?end if?>

Problem with data size in XML Publisher report

Hi Experts,
I am working on EBS11i and database 9i. I working on XML Publisher reports, i have one XML Publisher report with generating output in EXCEL format. If i submit the report, if the data is huge (like 2.3 million records), it's ending up with warning, but if data is less, it's completing normal. Could somebody help me why it's behaving like this, is it because the report is XML Report, the xml file it's generating not have enough memory in server side if the data is huge.
Could somebody help me how to solve this issue.
Note: I need output in EXCEL format only.

Pl identify the version of XMLP you are using.
Pl post the complete warning message from the concurrent log file. Are there any additional error messages in the Output Post Processor log file ? Have you specified enough temp space using the XML Publisher Administrator responsibility ?

Multiple Data Sources for XML Publisher in APPS?

Is it possible to draw data from two different reports (i.e. two different data sources) into a single template, using XML Publisher in APPS?

Gareth is correct if it's only ONE report. It's my understanding that it's two reports that you want to merge into one report. If this is the case then the options I gave you are still correct.
Option 3: You could add a third option which is to keep the reports the same, set the output in the concurrent program(s) to xml. You will still have to merge the xml files and apply the format template which would require a javaConcurrentProgram.
Option 4. You could do option three but with a twist. Create two format templates, apply them to each xml output, then use the pdfMerger utility to create a single document. This may or may not work based on your requirements.
