Generate Multiple copies of same Invoice using XML Publisher

Hello All
I have a requirement wherein the existing XML report Output should print the same Invoice twice one orginal and one a Customer Copy.
i.e say Earlier the Invoice was INVOICE-ABC Customer and ran into 3 pages with Page 1 of 3, Page 2 of 3, Page 3 of 3.
Then now the requirement is to print same once more with a new Heading Invoice Copy- ABC Customer Page 1 of 3, Page 2 of 3 Page 3 of 3.
Has any one of you faced a similar requirment.
Suggestions/Inputs would help a lot.
Thanks!!

as idea
create main concurrent and run INVOICE-ABC Customer and Invoice Copy- ABC Customer by
fnd_request.submit_requestso if you want to use one template and changing Heading for 'COPY' then you can add parameter for invoice concurrent for identify type (copy or not)
so in parameter not 'COPY' then Heading is 'INVOICE-ABC Customer' else 'Invoice Copy- ABC Customer'
if you can't change template then copy and change Heading and in main run two concurrents

Inbound Invoice thru XML Gateway

Hi to all,

Hi,
Thru Oracle Transport Agent Send Imbound , i send an Inbound Invoice using XML
the interface tables AP_INVOICES_INTERFACE and AP_INVOICE_LINES_INTERFACE are updated correctly and then i run the concurrent "Payable Open Interface Import"
When the concurrent finish i receive an error "Insufficient Receipt Information" and the invoice can not be imported into AP tables
From PO view, the PO is correct , and also there is a Receipt
Invoice also match with Receipt , also the Supplier --> Invoices match with Receipt
The above xml created based on 171_process_invoice_002.dtd, and i dont know how to pass the information of Receipt Number
the above articles you mention in your post does not describe how you have to declare the element into xml file so RECEIPT_NUMBER in AP_INVOICE_LINES_INTERFACE must fill

A website I need to get information from returns a message stating that I do not have the most recent XML parser, and suggests using IE 5.5 or newer. This, of course, I have no intention of doing. Any suggestions?

This is supposed to be an animated Help page. However, when Itry to click on it, it gives me the message:
Your browser does not seem to have the most updated XML parser.
Please use Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5 or up for PointingTheWay features.
System Can Not Proceed any further.

Unfortunately, it's a member-only page, with member id and password required. I'm trying to contact their IT dept., but without much luck, so far!

Parse an Aggregate in XML Document using PL/SQL

Hi. I've been successful with parsing a TAG in XML Document stored in CLOB using PL/SQL XML Parser.
However, I need help on how to get the whole aggregate in XML Document stored in CLOB.
sample XML Doc :
<library>
<book>
<title>Oracle Complete Reference</title>
<author>Kevin</Author>
<year>2000</year>
</book>
<video>
<title>Learning C++</title>
<length>2 hours</length>
<video>
</library>
I need a function that will accept an Input which is the aggregate name and will return the aggregate value.
With the sample XML above, say the input is 'VIDEO', the function will return :
<video>
<title>Learning C++</title>
<length>2 hours</length>
<video>
I'll really appreciate any help.

I used such an example to parse several Varchar2 strings in a given DB session:
BEGIN
parser := xmlparser.newparser ;
xmlparser.parsebuffer(parser,xmlout) ;
domdoc := xmlparser.getDocument(parser) ;
xmlparser.FREEPARSER(parser) ;
parser.id := -1 ;
nodes := xslprocessor.selectNodes(
xmldom.makenode(domdoc),
'Positionen/Position') ;
for i in 1 .. xmldom.getLength(nodes) loop
node := xmldom.item(nodes,i-1) ;
-- do s/thing with the node
end loop ;
xmldom.freedocument(domdoc) ;
RETURN(komponenten) ;
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
if parser.id <> -1 then xmlparser.freeparser(parser) ;
end if ;
if domdoc.id <> -1 then xmldom.freedocument(domdoc) ;
end if ;
RAISE ;
END ;
However, after about 2000 of nodes lists parsed, I get an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException from XMLNodeCover. Obviously, I should release the nodes or the nodelist, but I have not found any procedure to do this.

Invoice Print - How to customize using XML

We want to customize Invoice Print using XML. Currently it is in PDF format.
When we define the data defintion, what xml schemea needs to be put for Invoice Print and where can I find the file .xsd related to Invoice Print.
Similary we want to do it for Dunning Letters as well as Statements.
Your help will be much appreciated.

Hi Roy,
That's a very good question and I have 2 options for you:
1. Create transformer (see Transformation Service documentation to know how and there are examples) that will filter the RSS items according to content of the items. Connect this new transformer to your XML iView in the XML iView editor so it will be the first one and the built-in RSS transformer is second. SAX transformers are faster for filtering so I recommend adding this transformer.
2. Create your own RSS XSL transformer (again like in the documentation) that will filter the items and create the UI.
I hope this will help you.

How can (parse) i use XML file with missing EndTag

hi,
i have an application which writes an "XML file".
another application should read that XML file, build an DOM and
access the nodes with xpath.
my problem. if the first application is not finished there are tags
missing. e.g. </xml>. but the seconds application cannot wait until the first application finishes it task.
if i now read the XML file the parser cannot load it because the end tags are missing.
my question:
how can i deactivate the check or how can i read the XML file and access it via XPath (my application is using at the moment XPath to access the nodes and i dont want to change that)
as parser i am using XERCES
alex

As far as I know, you can't do this - xml must be well formed (this is sort of a bedrock of xml). There may be some work around's, but I'm not aware of any - and they would most likely be hacks.

HO w to use SAX parser to create an XML file on the fly

Hi All,
Currently I am using the DOM parser to create an XML file from a text file. But as the DOM takes much memory and inefficient, I need to convert the DOM translator to SAX translator. Can I do that ?? If YES then how to go about that and if NO then what may be the workaround for that.
Please help me out
Thanx in advance
kaushik

Incidentally, look at this thread:
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=34&thread=252415
It has an example of how to transform an XML file via XSLT. If you change this to use the zero-argument form of newTransformer, it will apply the "identity transformation" to your input, thus outputting your XML in valid form. Now you just need to figure out how to provide SAX input to this, and the JAXP download includes an example of that.

Trying to use XML SAX parser with JDK2 ...

Hi,
I'm pretty new to Java.
I'm trying to write and use java sample using XML SAX parser. I try with XP and XML4J.
Each time I compile it give me a error message like
"SAX01.java:23: unreported exception java.lang.Exception; must be caught or declared to be
thrown
(new SAX01()).countBooks();
^
Note: SAX01.java uses or overrides a deprecated API.

1 error"
For what I found, it seems that "deprecated" mean usage of old classes or methods. What should I do ?
Wait for the XML parser to be rewrite ? ....
Thank's

Using XML-based object structures to represent data in code/at run-time

Hello,
I have quite a "high level" question which has be bothering me for some time, and I haven't found the subject tackled in any books. I believe J2SE/J2EE is not an important divide here.
Lets say I want to develop a J2SE game application with two programs: a "level designer", and a "level viewer", and I want to store the level files in an XML format.
My question, and I use this example only to try and illustrate it, is:
when coding the level designer or viewer, is it reasonable to use an XML-based object hierarchy for representing a level in code/at run-time, i.e. using the standard Java DOM APIs? Or should one (as I would have done before XML came along) develop a set of classes much closer to modelling the real form of a level, and then add a means to convert those objects to/from to XML format?
This second option of course I would use/would have used if I wasn't thinking about XML, but isn't it sometimes easier to just read in an XML file into a DOM representation and just use the data straight out of that structure, rather than go through the bother of parsing the XML into a set of unrelated objects defined by a different family of classes? What shapes your decision here? And if the second option is best, what is the easiest way of converting to/from the XML?
Thank you for any advice.
Greg

Hi Christian,
Can I ask: what about if your domain was quite 'close' to an object/DOM representation of XML?
For instance, what if a game operated by acting out a theatrical script, a spoken conversation, between two characters, perhaps somehow influenced at points by the user, and a particular level was just a different script for the characters.
One could imagine that the object representation of this would in the end be quite similar to how you'd represent XML, i.e. like a tree of nodes, where each node was a line from the script, and some nodes were a decision point where different nodes could be chosen from.
Would you still want to avoid using XML-based classes to represent the underlying 'game', or is there a point where you would 'give it' to the similarity and use existing XML structures directly?
Thank you for any advice
Greg

I had a similar error which when I searched, came up with this thread.
My issue was resolved after I discovered that my RTF template was not really RTF. It was sill in MS Word DOC format. This was discovered by reviewing two templates in NOTEPAD. The MS-DOC files have a lot of "special" characters in them. My RTF was not really RTF.
After doing a SAVE AS - RTF format, then the preview worked as expected.
