XML (Add_field_section)

I am confused as to using XML with Intermedia....Is there a way to feed an
XML document into Intermedia and have it recognize the tags, or do I have to
use the add_field_section command for each
tag in the XML document....My XML documents
have hundreds of tags....
Is there an easy way to do this....

Which version of the database are you using? I beleive you need to to do it for 8.1.5 but not 8.1.6.

Problem in creating xml section group

I have created xml section group with some sections defined in the field.Now my attributes are repeated with different root nodes.so i have put braces for differentiation and created context index.

now when i am trying to run the query
select * from xyz_indexes where contains(xyzcolumn,'(LORI WITHIN abLName)
& ("BELAND" WITHIN abFName)')>0
It is not returning anything.
Can anyone provide me some help on it.

I changed your data to match what you were searching for, then I noticed that your third parameters for add_field_section were wrong, so I changed that. The query then returns rows, as demonstrated below. However, I suspect that add_field_section is not what you want to use with your XML data since you have tags with the same names within different categories.

Storing and searching XML in CLOBs

Speaking to an oracle employee at the Oracle booth at JavaOne
recently. They suggested I store XML in CLOBs
and use the DOM or SAX to reparse the XML later as needed.
I agreed that this was the best solution for my problem
(which was how to manage many different XML documents using many
different DTDs in a document management system)
The big problem was searching this document repository
to locate relevant information.
This is where Intermedia seemed ideal (still does).
It would be nice to see an example of setting this up using
Intermedia in Oracle 8i, demonstrating how to define the
XML_SECTION_GROUP and where to use a ZONE as opposed to a FIELD
etc.
Anybody care to take a shot at this ????
For example:
How would I define Intermedia parameters
so that I would be able to search my CLOB
column for records that had the <keyword>
"aorta" and "damage" in the <caption>
using the following
XML (DTD implied)
<image filename="OurImageName.gif">
<fname>WellKnownFileName.gif</fname>
<keyword>echocardiogram</keyword>
<keyword>aorta</keyword>
<caption>This is an image of the vessel damage</caption>
</image>
Thanks

The example he gave involves exactly that -- searching for
text within XML elements. interMedia can do this.
: It also does not do attributes.
Upcoming 8.1.6 version allows searching within
attribute text. That's something like:
dog within book@author
We're working on attribute value sensitive search,
more like:
dog within book[@author = "Eric"]

create index myidx on mytab(mytxtcolumn)
indextype is ctxsys.context
parameters ('section group mygrp');
select * from mytab
where contains(mytxtcolumn, 'aorta within keyword')>0;
options:
* use XML section group instead of basic section group
if your tags have attributes or you need case-sensitive
tag detection
* use zone sections instead of field sections if your
sections overlap, or if you need to distinguish
between instances. For instance, keywords. If keywords
is a field section, then
(aorta and echocardiogram) within keywords
finds the document. if it is a zone section, then it
doesn't, because they are not in the SAME instance of
keywords.

Determining Where Hits Were Found (XML Section Groups)

Hello all,
Hoping for a bit of help. It's my first time posting here, but I've benefitted from reading a lot of your posts. I have created a single Oracle Text index for a resume database of sorts. It utilizes a user datastore. The procedure I use gathers a a single user's information in my database and organizes it via XML tags that are assigned in the procedure - outputs a CLOB. I did this in order to try the AUTO SECTION GROUP option when indexing, so that I could use the WITHIN operator.
So, for example, the procedure is given the rowid for a single employee, and the output may be:
<ALL>
<PERSONAL>
83019
John Smith
10/05/1973
Baltimore, MD
</PERSONAL>
<SKILLS>
Oracle Database Administrator
.NET Developer
</SKILLS>
</ALL>
My problem is I wish to know the SPECIFIC section groups where hits were registered if I search all of the XML
SELECT EMPLOYEE_ID
FROM EMPLOYEE_TBL
WHERE CONTAINS (DUMMY_COLUMN, 'developer WITHIN ALL', 1) > 0
ORDER BY SCORE (1) DESC
My output is:
EMPLOYEE_ID
83019
Is there any way I can also list the sections where hits were registered for this user? In this example, I'd want the "SKILLS" section to show up in the result set.

skMed,
Yes, that is a problem. Alternatives are the first method using UNION ALL or creating a MATERIALIZED VIEW and indexing that, similar to what I demonstrated to the other poster on this thread, or CTX_DOC.HIGHLIGHT as Roger said. I have provided a demonstration of the problem below, followed by an alternative solution that uses CTX_DOC.HIGHLIGHT as Roger suggested. I used a function but Roger may have a more elegant method.

Intermedia/XML Support...PLEASE ORANET

Is there someone out there who can provide some real world examples of performing this simple task....
I have an XML document, I want to feed it into 8i and search by content using the tags...
Remember my XML document has over 100 tags,
do I have to sit their and do an ADD_FIELD_SECTION for every tag....If not, where is this documented...
Thanks for helping us Dummies....

What follows is the content of the aforementioned demo file.
It sets up the tables, types, and object views for the XSQL Insurance Claim Demo (that you try try live on our OTN demo site at http://technet.oracle.com/tech/xml/demo/demo1.htm )
The intermedia-related part starts at the line that reads: ctx_ddl.drop_preference()
In this example, an insurance claim
has a "DamageReport" which is an
XML Document fragment. The intermedia
stuff at the end shows how to
setup an XML searching index on
the <CAUSE> and <MOTIVE> tags in
this "DamageReport" document fragment.
Hope this helps.

XML Quote report

We have a problem with our XML Quote report that cuts off the report at 26 pages when it should go to about 200 pages.
We have another report the Acknowledge Quote and it works fine.

Finally we found the solution for this problem.
1. Open qotSCocPrint.jsp and add below line inside <SELECT id="qotOutFrmt" name="qotOutFrmt"> statement. This line should be added after "for" loop.
<OPTION value="EXCEL">Excel Format</option>
We can add as many options the XML Publisher supports.
2. Decompile oracle.apps.aso.print.webui.MainCO.class (Controller).
Change the below line
httpservletresponse.setContentType("application/pdf");
to
httpservletresponse.setContentType("application/"+quoteOutputFormat.toLowerCase());
Take a backup of the original file, compile the java in the same directory.
3. Decompile oracle.apps.aso.print.server.PrintQuoteAMImpl.class and change this line
Field field = class2.getDeclaredField("OUTPUT_TYPE_PDF");
to
String outputFormat="OUTPUT_TYPE"+as[12].trim();
Field field = class2.getDeclaredField(outputFormat);
Bounce Apache and generate the Quote output in desired format.

Issue in Creation of XML file from ABAP data

Hi,
I need to create a XML file, but am not facing some issues in creation of XML file, the in the required format.
The required format is
-<Header1 1st field= u201CValueu201D 2nd field= u201CValueu201D>
   - <Header2 1st field= u201CValueu201D 2nd field= u201CValueu201Du2026u2026. Upto 10 fields>

          <Header4 1st field= u201CValueu201D 2nd field= u201CValueu201Du2026u2026. Upto 4 fields/.>
           <Header5 1st field= u201CValueu201D 2nd field= u201CValueu201Du2026u2026. Upto 6 fields/>
      </Header2>
   </Header1>
Iu2019m using the call transformation to convert ABAP data to XML file.
So please anybody can help how to define XML structure in transaction XSLT_TOOL.
And one more thing, here I need to put the condition to display the Header 3, Header 4, Header 5 values. If there is no record for a particular line item in header 3, 4 & 5, I donu2019t want to display full line items; this is only for Header 3, 4 & 5.
Please help me in this to get it resolved.

Hello,
you can use CALL TRANSFORMATION id, which will create a exact "print" of the ABAP data into the XML.
If you need to change the structure of XML, you can alter your ABAP structure to match the requirements.
Of course you can create your own XSLT but that is not that easy to describe and nobody will do that for you around here. If you would like to start with XSLT, you´d better start the search.

Rendering xml-table into logical filename in SAP R/3

Hi,
I am trying to translate an xml-table with bytes into a logical filepath in SAP R3.
Do I have to use the method gui-download or shall I loop the internal xml-table?
When I tried to loop the xml-table into a structure, and then transfering the structure into the logical filename, I get problems with the line breaks in my xml-file. How do I get the lines to break exactly the same as I wrote them in my ABAP-code?

Momento de envio do XML

Boa tarde,
Estou em um projeto de implementação e com a seguinte dúvida:
Requerimentos:
Tenho que enviar o XML assim que a Invoice+NF é gerada (VF01/VF04, etc).
Num segundo momento, após a aprovação do XML, eu poderei imprimir a DANFe.
Envio XML:
Sei que a função que mapeia o XML para a versão 2.0 é a J_1B_NF_MAP_TO_XML e a função que envia para o GRC ou outra mensageria (utilizaremos NeoGrid) é a J_1B_NFE_XML_OUT.
A pergunta é: como faço a chamada destas funções? Qual programa devo chamar? Em qual momento? É por customizing ou por uma exit no faturamento?
Obs.: entendo que estas funções já estão configuradas no monitor J1BNFE para solicitar o reenvio da nota, etc.
Impressão DANFe:
Em paralelo, na J1BJ vou ter que configurar somente o programa de impressão do DANFe (J_1BNFPR), correto? Pois assim quando eu gerar e processar o output da NAST ele irá fazer a impressão do documento, correto?
Caso não entendam as perguntas por favor me contestem que eu explico melhor.
Obrigado!

Olá, Fernando.
Por favor veja se pode nos ajudar.
Estamos tendo o mesmo problema com o envio do XML para a mensageria (não GRC).
Seguindo as parametrizações indicadas acima:

     Funções gerais de aplicação

O local de negócios está configurado como RFC CALL vazio (segue descrição abaixo):
"Execução RFC e atualização banco dados na mesma LUW (padrão)"
Porém, ao tentar enviar a nota fiscal (ex: J1B1N), ocorre um erro na SM58 e o XML não é enviado para o sistema de mensageria.
Analisando o programa SAPLJ_1B_NFE, no include LJ_1B_NFEF42, vemos que para mensagerias não GRC o programa chama a função J_1B_NFE_XML_OUT em background task, o que ocasiona o erro abaixo na SM58.

Generate prov.xml for Creative Cloud. Return Code 27

We're trying to follow this guide (Creative Cloud Help | Using Adobe Provisioning Toolkit Enterprise Edition) to serialize a package (or something). We're stuck on generating prov.xml. My best attempt at an entry is:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE\PDApp\CCP\utilities\APTEE>adobe_prtk.exe --tool=VolumeSerialize --generate --serial=xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx --regsuppress=ss --eulasuppress --locales=en_US --provfilepath=C:\Program Fil
es (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE\PDApp\CCP
It says half of this is optional, but I'm skeptical.
Anyway, I'm getting return code 27. This indicates that it is unable to edit the prov.xml file specified. I didn't specify a prov.xml file, I'm trying to make one. The syntax I'm using differs from what I found on the page I linked, as that was giving me syntax errors. I lifted this off someone else's code. I've tried just about every variation I can think of. Any help would be appreciated.
This is on Windows

Generate xml source file for Oracle Order Capture Print Quote

Hi,
I am new to xml and need to work on creating templates for Print Quote.
I am trying to generate the xml source file for which I enabled the report in system administrator and set the output to XML and assigned to Quoting Reports responsiblity. I then assigned XML Report Publisher to the same responsiblity.
I ran the report (Print Quote) and then I am trying to run the XML Report Publisher but I cannot get the request id in the list of values.
I am able to generate xml source file for other reports like Printed Purchase Order etc.,
The view output for the (Print Quote) report is as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
- 
<ASOPQTER />
How do I get the xml source file? Or are there seeded templates that I can use to create more templates? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Ravi

Hi, I am in the same position - did this issue ever ger resolved by anyone. I have done a few XMLP reports successfully now using the Word add-in, but customising the Quote output differs from other standard reports.
If you look at the data definition for Quote it is a 'dummy' definition and has no XML file attached. Does anyone know how I can get the XML format for the report output?
Also the template uses XSL-FO ?!?!?! rather than RTF - not sure how to work with this, the Oracle docs are not very helpful in this regard either.
Has anyone successfully managed to customise the Quote print report? Many thanks,
Roger

Using a SQL data source and XML data source in the same template

I am trying to develop a template for the Request for Quote report generated in Apps 11.5.10. I have loaded the data from the XML output into the template, but I am missing one field - I need the org_id from the po_headers table. Is it possible to use a sql data source (i.e., "select org_id from po_headers_all where po_header_id = [insert header_id from xml data]...") in addition to the xml data source to populate the template at runtime? When you use the Insert > SQL functionality is it static at the time the template is created, or does it call to the database at runtime? I've looked through all the docs I could find, but this isn't clear.
Thanks for any help or suggestions you may have.
Rhonda

Hi Pablo
Thats a tough one ... if you go custom with a data template you will at least get support on the data template functionality ie you have a problem when you try and build one. You will not get support on the query inside the data template as you might have gotten with the Oracle Report, well you could at least log a bug against development for a bad query.
Eventually that Oracle Report will be converted by development anyway, theres an R12 project going on right now to switch the shipped OReports to data templates. AT this point you'll be fully supported again but:
1. You have to have R12 and
2. You'll need to wait for the patch
On reflection, if you are confident enough in the query then Oracle will support you on its implementation within a data template. Going forward you may be able to swap out your DT and out in the Oracle one without too much effort.

Questions on LDAP w.r.t XML Publisher 5.6.2

Hi all,
I have 2 questions on LDAP integration w.r.t XML P 5.6.2
1) Is OID the only supported LDAP repository? I tried to set up a Iplanet directory server against XMLP, but could not. Did I miss something, or it is not supported?
Other than OID, any other LDAP supported?
2) Suppose, my use-case is: I want to show some values from the database, and also in the same report, print out the user attributes from the LDAP (like email id of the user, for example) who fired the report, then is this possible?
Thanks,
Ambarish,

Ok. Question 1 - I have answered myself. I could not set up SunONE Directory server against XMLP :-(
But I could set up against openldap. :-)
I plan to contribute to the blog in 2/3 days time on how this can be done.
But I still need some help on the question 2. How can I create a report which has all the data from both the backend database, and well as from the LDAP repository. For example, report like:
Report Fired By:
EMAIL id:
Mobile:
