Prbolem with BURSTING

Question

Hi XMLP Gurus,
I am trying to generate Purchase Order report using Bursting API.
Requirement is to generate PDF document, containing POs, per vendor site.
What I am doing is generating XML Data file using Java DataEngine API, which contains POs for all the vednor sites. Then, I burst the file at vendor site level.
I would like to generate one document for one vendor site.
The following is the control file I am using.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xapi:requestset xmlns:xapi="http://xmlns.oracle.com/oxp/xapi">
     <xapi:request select="/G_VENDOR_SITES/LIST_G_VENDOR_SITE/G_VENDOR_SITE">
          <xapi:delivery>
               <xapi:filesystem id="file" output="/tmp/coe/xmlp/data/${P_VENDOR_SITE_ID}.pdf" />
          </xapi:delivery>
          <xapi:document output-type="pdf" delivery="file">
               <xapi:template type="rtf" location="/tmp/coe/xmlp/templates/RTF_TEMPLATE_LAYOUT.rtf">
                    <!--xapi:data location="/tmp/coe/xmlp/data/coePoPrintXML.xml"/-->
               </xapi:template>
          </xapi:document>
     </xapi:request>
</xapi:requestset>
Structure of my file:
+<G_VENDOR_SITES>
++<LIST_G_VENDOR_SITE>
+++<G_VENDOR_SITE>
++++<P_VENDOR_SITE_ID>1970</P_VENDOR_SITE_ID>
++++<COUNTRY>US</COUNTRY>
++++<LIST_G_PO_HDR>
++++...
++++<G_PO_HDR>
++++...
+++++++lines..
+++++++++++shipments..
+++++++++++++++distributions..
I am facing couple of problems as follows:
1) Dynamic file name generation is not working.
<xapi:filesystem id="file" output="/tmp/coe/xmlp/data/${P_VENDOR_SITE_ID}.pdf" />.
This is not substituting the value of ${P_VENDOR_SITE_ID}. So I get only one file namely, ".pdf"
2) In the next version of my report, I would like to deliver the document based on Vendor site's notification preference. It means, delivery should be dynamic. Eg. if vendor site has Email as notification method, PDF generated for that Vendor site should be sent thru email. Similarly, for FAX.
Does <xapi:document> element support filter attribute?
Or I have to use multiple <request> element to achieve this?
Your thoughts gurus..
Thanks-
Ashish.

Hi Ashish,
if u got the solution for your requirement pls let me know, I am also working on the same report.
my requirement is if i run a batch (for example batch contains 6 PO's with 3 PO's C_PRINT_FAX_FLAG ='E' (Email) and other three PO's C_PRINT_FAX_FLAG ='F' (Fax) ) based on the filter="//G_HEADERS[C_PRINT_FAX_FLAG ='E' or filter="//G_HEADERS[C_PRINT_FAX_FLAG ='F' the program should burst on the respective flags.And if C_PRINT_FAX_FLAG ='E' i have to email those PO's to different suppliers OR if C_PRINT_FAX_FLAG ='F' i have to fax those PO's to respective supplier faxnumbers.
but now it is not bursting the program sending all the 6 PO's output as a single PDF file to all the suppliers and supplier faxnumbers (irrespective of Flag value)
ex:
----PO No: | --------- Flag:-------------------- |--supplier email address:-----
----------------| --------------------------------- -----| -------------------------------------------
##PO1001 | C_PRINT_FAX_FLAG ='E' | [email protected]
##PO1002 | C_PRINT_FAX_FLAG ='E' | [email protected]
##PO1003 | C_PRINT_FAX_FLAG ='E' | [email protected]
##PO1004 | C_PRINT_FAX_FLAG ='F' | [email protected]
##PO1005 | C_PRINT_FAX_FLAG ='F' | [email protected]
##PO1006 | C_PRINT_FAX_FLAG ='E' | [email protected]
for the above PO's :
1. ##PO1001, ##PO1002 should email to [email protected]
2.##PO1003 should email to [email protected]
and
3.##PO1004,##PO1005 should fax to [email protected]
##PO1006 should fax to [email protected]
