How to not repeat the column values if repeated on next line and so on..?

Question

Hi all,
The XmlP template that is designed gives me the output as follows :
COL1 COL2 COL3 COL4 COL5 COL6 COL7
abc 1 1000.00 10.00 95.00 695.00 cad
abc 2 1000.00 100.00 95.00 695.00 cad
abc 3 1000.00 100.00 95.00 695.00 cad
But my requirement is as follows :
COL1 COL2 COL3 COL4 COL5 COL6 COL7
abc 1 1000.00 10.00 95.00 795.00 cad
- 2 - 100.00 - - -
- 3 - 100.00 - - -
Note : "-" indicates blank column values (gaps are being filled)
How do I not repeat the column values if repeated?
Please let me know if you have answer for it?
Thanks in Advance

Answer 1

Iam trying to design the xml publisher template using xmlp template builder.
My requirement is :
For a receipt number, I have receipt amount, applied amount, unapplied amount and on account amount. And for each receipt, there can be multiple applied amount ( as the receipt can be applied multiple times), but the unapplied amount, on account amount and receipt amount is single.
By using the logic as said above from http://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/2007/04/13
Iam getting the output something like this:
Receipt Number| Receipt Amount | App Amount |UnappAmount|OnaccountAmount|
111-b|249.28|249.28|0.00|0.00|
1110|1,000.00|10.00|95.00|795.00|
1110| -|10.00|-|-|
1112|1500.00|1,271.02|-|-|
1112|-|228.98|-|-|
My requirement is to go get something like this:
Receipt Number| Receipt Amount | App Amount |UnappAmount|OnaccountAmount|
111-b|249.28|249.28|0.00|0.00|
1110|1,000.00|10.00|95.00|795.00|
1110| -|10.00|-|-|
1112|1500.00|1,271.02|0.00|0.00| ---> here lies the difference
1112|-|228.98|-|-|
How do i check the duplicate of the column values only for a receipt number??
Because as for receipt no. 111-b the unapplied amount and on account amount is 0.00, the the unapplied amount and on account amount for receipt number 1112 is getting hided( because its a duplicate) . In reality, it should be 0.00 and any other line for that receipt number (1112) should be hided. except for the applied amount.
Note We can see that last 2 columns in the last record( for receipt number 1112) is getting hided that is as expected but for 4th record the unapplied amount and on account amount should be 0.00 respecively.
'-' indicates hided value
Please help.
Thanks in Advance
