Looks like small data discrepancy in hr_api_transactions.transaction_document for Talent Management

Question

Hi,
I have some problem with the XML data in transaction document for Talent Management
Unable to perform transaction on the record.
Cause: The record has deleted by another user
When checked manually from back end, there objectives (IDs) that are there in XML type, aren't there in per_objectives table. The error seems right.
My task now is to find how many cases(objectives) are there like this. Logic is, look for objectives (that are marked as Update/Delete) in XML and find the ID existing in per_objectives or not. I could make-up the SQL for listing all objectives as a table result as below:
  select
   extractvalue(VALUE(xx_row), '/ObjectiveEORow/Name') AS objective_name,
   extractvalue(VALUE(xx_row), '/ObjectiveEORow/ObjectiveId') oid
  from hr_api_transactions txn,
       TABLE(xmlsequence(extract(xmlparse(document txn.transaction_document wellformed),'/Transaction/TransCache/AM/TXN/EO/ObjectiveEORow'))) xx_row
  where extractvalue(xmlparse(document transaction_document wellformed),'/Transaction/TransCtx/TransactionRefId')  = '26308'
  and txn.transaction_id = 1946469;
Problem now is, to distinguish only the PS="3" (Delete) and PS="2"(Update) objectives. This table doesn;t show the PS attribute of the "ObjectiveEORow" node in XML.
               <ObjectiveEORow PS="3">
                  <ObjectiveId>1813772</ObjectiveId>
               </ObjectiveEORow>
Please help me in making the SQL show the XML attribute "PS" value for node "ObjectiveEORow".
regards,
Raj.

I could get the solution. Thanks everyone !
  select 'E'||ppf.employee_number employee_number,ppf.full_name,txn.transaction_document,txn.transaction_id, i.*
  from per_all_people_f         ppf,
      per_personal_scorecards  psc,
      hr_api_transactions      txn,
         xmltable('/Transaction/TransCache/AM/TXN/EO/ObjectiveEORow'
            passing xmltype(transaction_document)
            columns
             PS varchar2(800) path '@PS',
             oid  number      path 'ObjectiveId'
            ) i
    where txn.transaction_ref_table = 'PER_PERSONAL_SCORECARDS'
    and psc.scorecard_id = txn.transaction_ref_id
    and ppf.person_id = psc.person_id
    and trunc(sysdate) between ppf.effective_start_date and ppf.effective_end_date
    --and psc.plan_id = 146
    and i.ps in ('2','3')
    and ppf.employee_number in ('4018','5072','6389')
    and not exists (
       select 1
       from per_objectives o
       where o.objective_id = i.oid)
