XML INVOICE REPORT- MULTIPLE COPIES

Question

Hi All,
I am developing report for sales invoice. The source for the report is RDF and template designed using RTF for difffent operating units.
Now We have an requirement to to print the invoice - 3 copies every time when user submit the request. In RDF we tried the option copies (system parameters) but it is not repeating the xml code thrice and for RTF layouts not working.
Using Version
Oracle Apps Release 12
Oralce XML Publisher 5.6.2
Word 2003

Answer 1

We have a requirement, where an Invoice batch job will run
at night and pick up all the entire invoices, batch would contain invoices of
different customers.
Each customer will have DFF at site level informing number
of copies required to be printed.
Eg:
Customer ABC Invoice ABC111 No. of Copies -4
Customer PQR Invoice PQR222 No. of Copies -2
Customer XYZ Invoice XYZ3333 No. of Copies -1
I am trying to use following variable in the RTF, for the data to loop but it creates various problems
Grouping and Variables:
<?for-each@section:G_HEADER?>
<?for-each@section:xdoxslt:foreach_number($_XDOCTX,1,DFF,1)?>  --- value coming in XML tag from DFF
<?for-each:/?>
The actual invoice tables and rtf
<?end for-each?>
Problems:
If I remove <?for-each:/?> tag, I am
getting the looping of data but the output file has no data from tags – only column
labels / headers appear ---- But looping happens
a.) With <?for-each:/?> tag,
sometimes the RTF works and looping happens along with data and something the RTF crashes with below error
              oracle.xdo.XDOException:java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException
b.) When I try with a data containing just single invoice – looping and everything works as expected.
However, if I load data which has multiple invoices each having different value in DFF for looping, entire file only contains first invoice ---- Looping happens still but does not proceed to next group
Solutions:
Can someone please guide me to the solution?
Please recommend what would be the correct syntax, so that each invoice gets looped dynamically in the RTF.
