Oracle Matrix Report output to XML Publisher

We have an Oracle matrix report (rdf) registered in our applications and we are trying to format the report output using XML publisher.
I have taken XML output of the report by changing the Report output to XML in concurrent program definition. Using this XML output we have started designing the RTF template using Template Builder for Word 5.6.2.
I am not able to get the MAtrix output in XML publisher. I am not sure how to design a Matrix Report using Template builder for word. I am not sure whether the XML output of Original Report has Tags mentioning Matrix report attributes or Not.
Can anyone help me by explaining how to design a Matrix Report template using XML report output. Appreicate your help.

I have posted a Blog on our blog site about how to create a matrix report in XML-Publisher

Perhaps this helps.

  • Report VS Excel output using XML Publisher tool (DBMS_XMLGEN)

    Hi All,
    Currently I am working on report generation in MRP module with Excel output using XML Publisher tool.
    XML tool works based on query.
    I have developed PLSQL block by using DBMS_XMLGEN – database package, to generate XML output of query.
    My question is how we can put generated xml on above PLSQL block into OUT file (APPS).
    Because DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE( ) has limitation, it allow 255 character string only.
    But I do not know, Is FND_FILE.PUT_LINE (FND_FILE.OUTPUT,’’) allow for large data?
    If it does not allow what will be the other solution in oracle application to resolve above problem.
    Let me know any queries regarding to this problem.
    Thanks and Regards,

    Hi Prakash,
    Thanks for the reply. We did apply the one-off patch and got rid of the problem of not viewing 'Excel' output using XMLP.
    Now we are looking at a different perspective:
    Basically our client is looking for the following:
    1. Mathematical functions in the resulting XLS (like SUM, AVG etc..) ouput
    2. Use of macros if possible.
    And to do this i am looking out for a sample template that gives me output in excel format I have a TAR with Oracle for this purpose, but the TAR has so far been unsuccessful in providing us with any material in the direction.
    Our client remembers seeing this as a demo at the Oracle Conference this yr at San Fransisco, but does not have a sample to provide us. We are looking for such a sample.
    Thx,

  • Oracle Matrix Rpt output to Microsoft Excel File

    I am looking for a solution that would take my current Oracle 9i matrix report output directly to an excel file. I have clients that need to see the report not in a pdf format(which I currently use) but in an excel format.
    Thanks,

    You could either use:
    a) DELIMITED output, assuming that the matrix isn't too large.
    b) DELIMITEDDATA output, which will just give you a dump of the data, and you'd need to construct the cross tab directly.
    c) In you're using 9i, then you could use jsp tags to output directly into an Excel html file (this could get pretty complicated for a matrix report). See an example of this at http://otn.oracle.com/products/reports/htdocs/getstart/demonstrations/index.html

  • Report output in XML format

    Is it possible to save (or export) report output in XML format, it is ok with either WebI or DeskI report, here we are concerned about output format not what type of report we can use to produce the output in XML format.
    Thank you,
    Srini

    Hi Srinivas,
    Only options available in WEBI or DESKI is to save documents in Excel or PDF format.
    As a workaround you can use Excel as an intermediate between your WEBI or DESKI document to XML format.
    When you try to save WEBI document in XML Data format you may get following Error because the Excel sheet does not contain any XML format that requires.
    u201CCan Not save XML data because the workbook does not contain any XML mappingsu201D
    Solution:
    1. Excel cannot save all or part of your workbook as XML Data if you have not created one or more mapped ranges.
    2. If you haven't added an XML map to your workbook, or your data is not contained within an XML list, then you can save your workbook in the XML Spreadsheet file format.
    If you have added an XML map to your workbook, follow these steps to map XML elements to your worksheet:
    1. On the Data menu, point to XML, and then click XML Source to open the XML Source task pane.
    2. To map one or more elements to your worksheet, select the elements in the XML Source task pane. To select nonadjacent elements, click one element, and then hold down CTRL and click each element.
    3. Drag the selected elements to the worksheet location where you want them to appear.
    I Hope this helps to find  the path of solution with Ease.
    Thanks...

    Numbers does not have anything specifically called an event registration template.  There are several options:
    1) search using your favorite search engine (google found quite a few hits when I searched using "Event Registration Template"
    2) build your own in Numbers
    Option (2) shouldn't be too difficult.

  • How to print output of XML Publisher report in different trays of a printer

    Hi All,
    I have a requirement in XML Publisher Report. I need to print all pages other than last one in one tray of a printer and the last page has to be printed in another tray of the same printer.
    Can anyone help me out...
    Thank You..

    I do not think it is possible to send all the pages to one tray and send only the last page to a different tray. However, you may review the following notes:

  • Oracle 6i Report Output Japanese Characters to XML on UNIX?

    I have a 6i report which reads text from the database and outputs everything to XML. There is now a requirement for it to handle Japanese characters.
    I was able to do this successfully in Windows by changing my NLS_LANG to UTF8 and changing the field font to a Unicode font. I then ran the report, and the XML that was output contains the correct Japanese characters from the underlying database query.
    When I port the report to UNIX, the report runs, but the Japanese characters all show up as upside-down question marks in the XML. If I open the report in Reports Builder from the server, I do not see any Unicode fonts, but it changed my selected font to "clear".
    Can anyone suggest the fix to get this working in UNIX? Does a new font need to be installed on the server to support this?
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

    we used UTF8 which worked fine with that.

  • No output for XML Publisher Report using CASE/DECODE in Where Clause

    Hi,
    I've a business requirement to modify an existing report which has two input parameters,
    -> p_statcode (Closed Status) which can have values 'Y' or 'N'
    -> p_overdue (Overdue Flag) which can have values 'Y' or 'N'
    The Overdue Flag is an evaluated column having values of Y/N and it is evaluated as follows,
    ONTF_MOD_VAL(NVL (
                                         (TRUNC (SYSDATE)
                                          - (TO_DATE (oe_order_lines.attribute18,
                                                      'DD-MON-RRRR')
                                             + TO_NUMBER (fnd_lookup_values.meaning))),
                                         0
                            overdue_flagThe user requirement now is they needs to be a third option for parameter p_overdue called ALL,
    passing which the output should include records having
    p_statcode is Y ELSE p_statcode is N AND p_overdue is Y OR p_overdue is N
    In other words records having both Y and N vlaues for Overdue Flag have to be returned irrespective of the value given to Closed Status.
    Original where clause in the Data Definition file is as follows,
    WHERE Closed_Status = nvl(:p_statcode,Closed_Status)
                       AND overdue_flag = nvl(:p_overdue,overdue_flag)My modified code is as follows,
    WHERE   Closed_Status = NVL (:p_statcode, Closed_Status)
             AND overdue_flag = (CASE
             WHEN :p_overdue = 'Y' THEN 'Y'
             WHEN :p_overdue = 'N' THEN 'N'
             ELSE overdue_flag
             END)
    OR
    WHERE   Closed_Status = NVL (:p_statcode, Closed_Status)
             AND overdue_flag = DECODE (:p_overdue, 'Y', 'Y', 'N', 'N',overdue_flag)Both approaches have the same problem.
    The output is in EXCEL format. The modified query works fine for p_overdue as Y or N but when p_overdue is passed as ALL it returns an empty EXCEL sheet with just the report output column headers.
    Any help as to why this is the case ?? What is wrong in my approach ?
    Regards,
    Vishal

    not clear about p_overdue = ALL
    which values needed for p_overdue = ALL ?
    try smth like
    WHERE   Closed_Status = NVL (:p_statcode, Closed_Status)
    AND (
       overdue_flag = DECODE (:p_overdue, 'Y', 'Y', 'N', 'N',overdue_flag) and :p_overdue != 'ALL'
       or
      :p_overdue = 'ALL' and (overdue_flag = 'Y' or overdue_flag = 'N')
    )for overdue_flag which has more then 'Y', 'N' values
    if overdue_flag only in ('Y','N') then
    WHERE   Closed_Status = NVL (:p_statcode, Closed_Status)
    AND (
       overdue_flag = DECODE (:p_overdue, 'Y', 'Y', 'N', 'N',overdue_flag) and :p_overdue != 'ALL'
       or
      :p_overdue = 'ALL'
    )

  • Creating a text output using XML Publisher

    Hi All,
    Recently i created a  report for my client using XMl Publisher. The Data Definition was XML and the template type was RTF and i got the output in a PDF format. All was going smoothly until the client decided at the last moment that they wanted to print this in a dot matrix printer!
    I've read some articles on XSL- Text layout templates. But i can't get my head around it (I'm Functio-Technical as opposed to Techno-Functional )
    How do i convert my RTF template to give me a text output?
    Miranga

    From what I know, you will have to create another template based on "XSL" layout or eText layout (both of them require different coding methods). The RTF can not create text outputs even in 11g. This is based on my experience so far. You can create RTF output (available by default) based on the current layout that you use for PDF and see if it can be printed in a dot matrix printer though.

  • How to generate PDF from XML output without XML publisher

    Hi,
    I am facing a problem while splitting the rdf generated XML output.
    Problem Description:
    I have a oracle invoice report which runs once every day (scheduled program). This report fetches me the invoices generated on that day and needs to be Mailed / Faxed to the customers.
    So i developed the report in such a way that it generates the output order by customers...since the output generated will be as one .out file in APPLCSF/out directory...the .out file needs to be splitted by customers, for which i have written a cursor which takes the data of the main query and submits that many requests as many as customers are there.....There is a possibility of having 1000 customers per day also. If that is the case then my main program will fire that many requests.
    Is there a different approach......any inputs are highly appreciated.
    Also, i am generating the output in XML format. Is there a way from which i can directly generate a PDF from that XML output rather using any other tool.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Lakshmi Kalyan Vara Prasad.

    Hi,
    with Reports Bursting and the defined "distributions" it's possible to have one report splittet to several parts with different receipients. Have a look at http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14504_01/dl/bi/B13673_01/pbr_dist.htm.
    With xsl-fo it's possible to create pdf out of xml ... that's what xml publisher is doing.

  • 'Move order pick slip report' Report not picking XML publisher Template.

    Hi,
    SUB: i have to create one XML report on .RDF(move order pick slip report).
    Submitting procedure move order pick slip report : i have created one Discrete Job and released that Job, then Component pick release for that particular job. then move order number will generates. then automatically fires the 'Move Order Pick Slip' Report.
    NOTE: what i meant to say is i am not submitting the report from SRS window. it will fires automatically when Component pick release.
    For this i have taken .xml and generated .rtf according to my layout and i have registered with XML publisher also.it is correct . But while running the report i am geting output as XML codes not in template(wht i have .rtf) format.
    if i have to see the output in template from. (i have taken in conc program output as XML also) still same problem.
    please help me if anybody having solutions.
    Thanks
    Valli

    Hi Valli,
    1:The first thing i would suggest that please check the BI Publisher version you are using (on apps/and on template builder also).
    2: In any case if your report is not picking up the template and generating the xml output , i suggest you to attach one program "XML Report Publisher" in your SRS.
    Oncwe you run your report and its generate the xml output. you have to take the request id & from view ---> submit request--->XML Report Publisher. run this request again.
    it will ask for the request id , select the appropriate request id and it will generate the pdf output as per your requirement.
    But this is temporary solution , i strongly recommend you to check the updated version of BI Publisher and instaal it on your oracle apps instance. also use the updated version of bi publisher for Layout(Template Builder).
    Regards
