Error when trying to run an FSG Report via XML Publisher...

hello.
Hope someone can help.
This is our first look into the benefits of XML Publisher in order convince Manager to start using it. Thing is, we really need to get both FSG reports and Dunning Letters working.
We've currently got XML Publisher 5.0.0 and BI Publisher Template Builder for Word v10.1.3.2.0
First up, FSG reports. Having followed this link here:
http://solutionbeacon.blogspot.com/2007/07/simple-tutorial-for-publishing-fsg.html
Ive managed to create a template based upon the basic FSG template supplied. I’ve follwed easy steps but on submitting the request against ANY [its what the notes said] FSG report the error messages from both the log and output files are given.. Those being..
Output file displayed the most productive error message:
DECLARE
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-06550: line 133, column 8:
PLS-00306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'SUBMIT_XML_REQUEST'
ORA-06550: line 133, column 5:
PL/SQL: Statement ignored
Can anyone help please? Or perhaps suggest an alternative to running FSG reports through XML Publisher.
Other thought was, do I need any different versions and/or Publisher Enterprise installing?
Many thanks for reading this..
Steven

..having tried an alternative presentation I got a singular FSG report to generate in PDF via XML Publisher..

List of reports in BI Publisher

Hi,
Could you please let me know how I can get the list of reports in BI Publisher 10g without using any Web Services...
Something similar to what I do in OBIEE Catalog Manager where I can export the Presentation Catalog to a file...
Thanks & Regards,
dmaze

You need first to get access to BI Publisher Enterprise (this is not the same as BI Publisher template builder). Either install one on your PC, or get access to the company's one. Once you logged in, you will be able to define reports, upload templates, etc. Please refer to the BIP Enterprise documentation for more detailed instruciotns.

From Oracle Reports to Bi Publisher :) [Closed]

Hello.. First I'll explain our situation :)
In our company when we create reports (using oracle reports) we have to insert in our before report trigger this: srw.user_exit('FND SRWINIT') ..An in the after report trigger this: srw.user_exit('FND SRWEXIT') Because this is needed for the CEMLIs (configurations, extensions, modifications, localization, and integrations) of the company in order to measure the time each report takes to finish.
I’ve made some reports using XML Publisher (Bi Publisher) and they are working great :) ..But now some people here are asking me if I could use those same instructions in order to get the information of the time.
I read at Tim’s Blog this:
“.. In good ol Oracle Reports you just added the following command in your before report trigger: srw.user_exit('FND SRWINIT') and it was all done for you. In the world of BIP we go one step further. The executable that runs your data template sets the org id for you so you do not have to do anything. Now there is a caveat to this, as long as you are using the BIP delivered executable (XDODTEXE) in EBS to call the data engine to run your data templates you're fine..” (http://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/2007/03/22)
We are using the executable XDODTEXE in EBS so I told them we don’t need to use those commands. But when they tested a process in order to get the info of the time (CEMLIs) they got no information.
Now I’m trying to insert in the data template the beforeReport and afterReport Triggers. But.. I don’t know what I should insert as the source:
<dataTrigger name=”beforeReport” source=”???????”/>
*Should I use something like SRW.INIT?
*Or is this already done when we run the concurrent using the XDODTEXE executable? (if yes, how can I verify this?)
*Is any of this possible (use those instructions of reports in bi publisher)?
Any help would be appreciated.. Thanks :)
~ Cori ~
(sorry if I misspelled something.. my English is not very good hehe :P)

Hello Tim, Thanks for your reply :)
Some people of Oracle told us we needed to use this command because with this a trace file is created. This are the steps they gave us (this is only used at OnDemand):
1) to be able to run a CEMLI, on the report you have to use in a before report trigger: srw.user_exit('FND SRWINIT'). In the after report trigger: srw.user_exit('FND SRWEXIT') (we didn't follow this step because we're using XDODTEXE as the executable)
2) in the report add a numeric parameter named ‘P_CONC_REQUEST_ID’
3) activate the Trace Option in the concurrent of the report.
4) execute the concurrent of the report
5) execute the concurrent ‘CEMLI Performance Checker’
6) fill the cemli_performance_standard file (this is a .xls file we have) with the information that was on the output of step No 5
We weren't getting the output of step No 5.. But now we could make it work :D
We were skipping step No 2, we just added the parameter and now everything is working fine :)
Thanks :)

Kindly Help me in resolving this issue

i know the issue,i can give quick fix, but in-order to make sure you don't get another glitch like this.
I would recommend, you to install the scheduler in another schema or another db.
Re-installing the scheduler schema tables will fix this.

Hi,
check in your Report definition if there's a parameter defined as Type MENU but without a corresponding LOV.

Excel Output for Standard Reports using XML Publisher

Hi All,
Customer wants to get Excel Output for the existing Standard/Custom Reports using XML Publisher. I followed the following procedure.
1. Changed the output to XML for Concurrent program ( Trial Balance - Detail )
2. Used the Existing seeded Template
3. Ran the Report using EXCEL as the output.
When I clicked on View Output, I am not able to see the Excel output. I am seeing the HTML tags in the output window. Verified that Viewer Options existed for Excel as follows:
File Format=Excel, Mime Type=application/vnd.ms-excel.
When I ran the report with PDF output. I can see the PDF output.
Ran the HTML output with new Viewer Option ( File Format=HTML, Mime Type=application/vnd.ms-excel) then I can see the output in Browser in the Excel format. I did this test after going through the Metalink Note: Note:316752.1
My question is.. Do I need always choose the HTML ouput in the options window to trigger the Viewer option for HTML. Customer may not like this idea. He would like to choose the Excel Output and see the output in Excel format either in the Browser or Microsoft Excel.
Can someone in this situation before help me out.
Thanks,
V

Questions rephrase:
1. Is the output is same for HTML and Excel options ?
2. Why the output is viewable with HTML option and not with Excel option ?
Customer has XML Publisher Version 5.0.1 and in the process of applying 5.6.1
Thanks,
V
