Printing the XML Publisher report output from different trays of printer.

I am generating the XML Publisher report and the output is in 5 pages and that is sent to the printer
In the printer there are two trays one tray(tray 1) consists of company watermarked papers and the other tray(tray 2) will be consisting of ordinary papers
I want to print the first two pages of the report on the papers of first tray and the remaining pages to be printed from another tray consisting of ordinary papers.
How can i do this in XML Publisher.
Any response will be appreciated
Thanks
Saurav

Look at the links AJ gave.
Basically what you will do is create a Data Definition and assign a Data Template to it. Create a (document) Template and assign it to your data definition. You will use the XML Publisher Java API classes to pass parameters to your data template and extract the XML data. Then you will use this in conjunction with your document template and the OAF integration region to present the final output to the user.
All of these things are in the XML Publisher documentation and Javadocs.

XML Publisher Report Output from OAF Page

Hi,
I created a button in a OAF page, and called the XML publisher Report program on click of this button. The concurrent request was ran when check from View Requests. When I click on viewout, the pdf document was open with the option, open, save, cancel. But this is not coming up in the OAF page. when debugged the code, the url is null.
Please see the below code.
OADBTransactionImpl oadbtransactionimpl = (OADBTransactionImpl)paramOAPageContext.getRootApplicationModule().getOADBTransaction();
String s1 = oadbtransactionimpl.getAppsContext().getEnvStore().getEnv("TWO_TASK");
System.out.println("s1 = " + s1);
String s2 = oadbtransactionimpl.getAppsContext().getEnvStore().getEnv("GWYUID");
System.out.println("s2 = " + s2);
String s3 = "BEGIN :1 := fnd_webfile.get_url(fnd_webfile.request_out, :2, :3, :4, 2); end;";
CallableStatement callablestatement = paramOAPageContext.getApplicationModule(paramOAWebBean).getOADBTransaction().createCallableStatement(s3, 1);
System.out.println("s3 = " + s3);
if(requestId != 0)
try
Number number = new Number(requestId);
callablestatement.registerOutParameter(1, 12);
callablestatement.setInt(2, number.intValue());
callablestatement.setString(3, s2);
callablestatement.setString(4, s1);
callablestatement.execute();
String s4 = callablestatement.getString(1);
System.out.println("Before S4 if statement");
if(s4 == null || s4.equals(""))
// throw new RuntimeException();
System.out.println("URL is null");
System.out.println(" print ouput url - " + s4 );
// throw OAException.wrapperException(exception);
oadbtransactionimpl.putValue("OutputURL", s4);
System.out.println(" print ouput url - " + s4 );

Excel output for the xml publisher report when it is [b]scheduled [/b]

How to get the excel output for the xml publisher report when it is scheduled by a apps user? Like what is the user profile option (for the apps user who runs the report) and what are the other things that needs to be taken care of so that only this xml publisher report run by this apps user produces a EXCEL output (When scheduled) ???
Really appreciate it if any one can help me in this regards.
Thanks
Munna

Hi Munna,
For eBusiness Suite (apps user) the report output is stored the same way whether executed immediately or scheduled.,To get excel set the options > output format to Excel. Only the user that submitted the report can view it, or you can get the output file from the server. Or you can set the notify option so that a Workflow Notification is sent when the request completes.

Printing of XML publisher report

Hi All,
This is in regards to the printing of XML publisher report in Oracle E-Business Suite.
we have a XML Publisher report in Oracle EBS,which generates the output in PDF without any issues. But the same output is printed in XML Tags when it goes to the printer.
Can you please throw some light why this is happening only for this particaular report,other XML reports in the system does not have this problem.
Thanks in Advance for your help.

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:

Hi,
Anyone used Code128 Barcode to print the BI Publisher Report?
Meetu

Hi,
I have used in some of my reports.
Before developing reports with Barcode, there are few setups to be implemented.
1. Install Barcode fonts.
2. Install Oracle Reports Barcode PLL library.
3. Call below function in your query.
idautomation_uni.Code128(<column_value>, 'TRUE')

How to call the XML Publisher Report thro Standard PO Output for Comm.

Hi
We need to call our custom report(XML Publisher Report) from the standard PO Output for Communication Report.
There is a parameter(Purchase Order Layout) in PO Output for Communication in which we can see no. of standard reports. We want to add our custom report in that list so that when we will run this standard report by selecting our custom report for Purchase Order Layout parameter, we should get the output as per our Custom report.
Since PO Output for Communication is a Java Concurrent Program, we are not able to place our custom report in the list of Purchase Order layout Parameter.

If employee id is the same should not print on the xml publisher report

Hi Dear,
I met with one problem and needs some suggestion on the best approach on it. It is a xml publisher report.
We have multiple rows for the same employee , but for the same employee only the first row needs to print the emplid.
Do we need to write the if statement , how to get the value of the last row emplid ?
For example :
EMPLID EMP_RCD STATE
1001 0 CA
1 TX
Any suggestion is appreciated.
Thanks,
Dennis

I understand your requirement is as follows:
Requirement:_
The data is this ->
EMPLID COLUMN 1 COLUMN 2 COLUMN 3
EMPLID_01 DATA_01_01 DATA_02_01 DATA_03_01
EMPLID_01 DATA_01_02 DATA_02_02 DATA_03_02
EMPLID_01 DATA_01_03 DATA_02_03 DATA_03_03
EMPLID_02 DATA_01_04 DATA_02_04 DATA_03_04
And you need report in this format:
EMPLID_01 DATA_01_01 DATA_02_01 DATA_03_01
DATA_01_02 DATA_02_02 DATA_03_02
DATA_01_03 DATA_02_03 DATA_03_03
EMPLID_02 DATA_01_03 DATA_02_04 DATA_03_04
Solution:_
If my understanding is correct, then you can make use of variables
at start of template set the variable to 0
*<?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX,'PREV_EMPLID',0)?>*
at the end of each data row, reset the variable
*<?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX,'PREV_EMPLID',EMPLID)?>*
while printing emplid in that row use IF condition
*<?if:(xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX, 'PREV_EMPLID'))!=EMPLID?>*
The above If condition will print emplid on the row only when there is change in EMPLID, so effectively printing emplid only on the 1st row of data for each employee id.
Also, you need to ensure that you group by employee id before you print each row.
Let me know if this works for you.

XML Publisher Report Output

Hi,
For one of our XML Publisher report, the output is varying from one instance to another. The data output is same.
There are nine records that need to be displayed.
In the first instance, all the nine records are being displayed in the first page.
In the second instance, eight records are being displayed in the first page and the last record is being displayed in the next page.
Please let me know what could be the cause/resolution for this issue.
Thanks,
Krishna

before all you need to check version of publisher with patches
Liviu Iliescu-Oracle how data source can impact to output in this case ?

The data output is same.

XML Publisher report output in RTF format does not display full page

Problem in XML Publisher Report submission from OAF Pages

Hi,
I am trying to submit Concurrent Program from OAF Page which is an XML Publisher Report.
The request is Submitting and Completing successfully but when we open to view the out put we are able to view the HTML tags.
We checked the same Concurrent program by submitting from the SRS window After completing if we click on view output the rtf file is getting opened correctly.
I tested with normal rdf report it is working fine with standard Concurrent program used in OAF
So my doubt is
Does the Standard Concurrent program used in OAF supports the rtf reports.
Please suggest if any modifications to be done in the Concurrent program
Krishna

Modified your code a little bit.Use this
    public int submitCPRequest(String shipmentId) {
    System.out.println("into submitCPRequest");
        OAPageContext pageContext;
        OAWebBean webBean;
    try {
OAApplicationModule am =pageContext.getApplicationModule(webBean);
    OADBTransaction tx = (OADBTransaction)am.getOADBTransaction();
    java.sql.Connection pConncection = tx.getJdbcConnection();
    ConcurrentRequest cr = new ConcurrentRequest(pConncection);
    String applnName = new String("XXAPL"); //Application that contains the concurrent program
    System.out.println("ApplName"+ applnName);
    String cpName = new String("XXAPLPOSMPRD"); //Concurrent program name
    System.out.println("Concc Name"+ cpName);
    String cpDesc = new String(" APL PO Shipping Material Pickup Request"); // concurrent Program description
    // Pass the Arguments using vector
    // Here i have added my parameter headerId to the vector and passed the
    //vector to the concurrent program
    Vector cpArgs = new Vector();
    cpArgs.addElement(shipmentId);
    System.out.println("Args"+ cpArgs);
    // Calling the Concurrent Program
    int requestId = cr.submitRequest(applnName, cpName,cpDesc, null, false, cpArgs);
    cr.addLayout("XXAPL", "XXAPLPOSMPRT", "ENG", "US" , "RTF");
    System.out.println("Req Id"+ requestId);
    tx.commit();
    return requestId;
        catch (RequestSubmissionException e) {
        System.out.println("Into Exception");
        OAException oe = new OAException(e.getMessage());
        oe.setApplicationModule(this);
        throw oe;
        catch(Exception exception)
        throw OAException.wrapperException(exception);

Changing the seeded rdf report output from text to PDF

Hi All,
I am trying to change the seeded report "Print Requisition Report" output from text to PDF. I changed the output format in the concurrent program definition from text to pdf. The report is now getting displayed in pdf format, but the alignment of the fields are changed. The output is not printing as it was printing while in the text output format. The output looks very sloppy, with uneven fonts and too much of text wrapping.
I tried some formatting and fields are somehow getting displayed but doesnt look in proper format. I am not able to change the font style in the report builder 6i, even if i change it is printing in the same font style with uneven font size. I think reducing the font size might help, but i am unable to change.We are on 11.5.10.2. Please provide your valuable suggestions on how to go about.
Thanks
Sarvesh

Hi Hussein,
Thanks for the information. After the adjustments in the layout and the font change the report is now getting displayed without any clipping when clicked on view output. But when the same report is printed some characters on the left and and right side is getting clipped. Please help on how to solve this issue.
Thanks,
Sarvesh

Showing the XML publisher report in an iframe..

Hi all..
Please help me with this question.
Before: We had a "http page" and we are showing a XML Publisher report which is also in "http" ,in an iframe of the parent page. Previously it was working fine, as both are http.
*** Basically we are generating a URL of the report and showing it in a iframe of the web application****
Now: Recently we configured ssl to the parent page (https), and the report sever is still in "http". Because of this difference, whenever we are calling that report,it is showing a security alert and redirecting to totally wrong page.
Is there any configurations that i can do in the ""report server" to rectify this issue.Please help me with this issue.
Thank u

Hi Ravi ,
can i do it only with the xml Publisher , because when i tried it in the past and get all the staff like Template / DD / CP up and running and started the CR i get an error from the system that he is missing a report directly in the file system... so he searched for the report himself on system like a standard 6i Report. But the template and the dd is stored in the db. So my question again, can I use the XML Puplisher without a Standard Report or can i use a dummy file only for checking and after that he use my template / dd.
regards
Kay

Issue with display of Barcode in the report output from different Machines

Hi ,
I have developed a BI Publisher report to print barcode on the output.
I have configured the necessary setup in XML Publisher Responsibility
by following the steps
1) Home --> Administration
a) Create Font Files
Uploaded the ttf file
2. Create Font Mapping Set
"Special Fonts"
3.Created font Mapping under the Mapping set of type "Special Fonts"
4.Provided the Value of Font Mapping Set to ‘FO Processing ‘ under Configuration
Font Mapping Set : Special Fonts
The above configuration works fine and I am able to view the Barcode in the output.
Issue : When I try to run the same concurrent porgram from a different PC ,and if I view the output, I am not able to see the barcode.
Please let me know if anyone has faced issue of such kind.
I guess the above cannot be system specific and please let me know where it is going wrong.
Thanks,
Seshu

Hello again
I have the font file and I already put it into C:/Windows/Font folder. I just don't have the option to "Create Font Files".
I try to use this code in a xdo.cfg file:
<config version="1.0.0" xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/oxp/config/">
<fonts>
<font family="Free 3 of 9 Extended" style="normal" weight="normal">
<truetype path="FRE3OF9X.ttf"/>
</font>
</fonts>
</config>
but i just can't make the bar code appear in PDF.
Thanks a lot
