EBS-OTM Item Integration BPEL Console question

Question

Hello All,
I apologize in advance if this is the incorrect category in which to post the question.
We are trying to customize the Item Integration piece that comes into OTM (6.1.0) from EBS Order Management (11.10). We have made our changes to the APPS package and the JAR files in the WshSendItemRefDataToOtm bpel instance.
When we test our changes, we can see our new elements and their values (DOMAIN NAME TMS and XID CASE) coming through during the G_getEBSItemInfo_OutputVariable in the BPEL audit (InvokeEBSItemPL) but the values are not there for the outputVariable from WshXFormToOutput. Our new elements show in its XML, but they are empty? Any ideas?
InvokeEBSItemPl:
(we have added the PACKAGEDITEMSPECREF element)

I suppose you are using seeded BPEL jar for OTM-EBS integration. I think you need to make the changes to code. unzip the jar and in .xslt file make the changes. Once done you have to Jar the file again and deploy it.
We had a similar issue when we added new fields, but we found out it alwyas better to write our own custom code than using oracle provided BPEL code.
