XML Publisher Looping

Question

Hello everyone,
I have an Invoice XML source which has the following grouping structure:
- <TMP002>
- <LIST_G_ORDER_BY>
- <G_ORDER_BY>
<ORDER_BY>111</ORDER_BY>
- <LIST_G_INVOICE>
- <G_INVOICE>
<BILL_CUST_NAME>Name 1</BILL_CUST_NAME>
<BILL_ADDRESS1>Addr 1</BILL_ADDRESS1>
<BILL_ADDRESS2>Addr 11</BILL_ADDRESS2>
- <LIST_G_INV_TERM>
- <G_INV_TERM>
- <LIST_G_LINE_TOTAL>
- <G_LINE_TOTAL>
- <LIST_G_LINES>
- <G_LINES>
<LINE_NUMBER>1</LINE_NUMBER>
<LINE_TYPE>LINE</LINE_TYPE>
<ITEM_DESCRIPTION>ITEM_1</ITEM_DESCRIPTION>
<TRX_NUMBER>11</TRX_NUMBER>
</G_LINES>
</LIST_G_LINES>
</G_LINE_TOTAL>
</LIST_G_LINE_TOTAL>
</G_INV_TERM>
</LIST_G_INV_TERM>
</G_INVOICE>
</LIST_G_INVOICE>
</ORDER_BY>
- <G_ORDER_BY>
<ORDER_BY>222</ORDER_BY>
- <LIST_G_INVOICE>
- <G_INVOICE>
<BILL_CUST_NAME>Name 2</BILL_CUST_NAME>
<BILL_ADDRESS1>Addr 2</BILL_ADDRESS1>
<BILL_ADDRESS2>Addr 22</BILL_ADDRESS2>
- <LIST_G_INV_TERM>
- <G_INV_TERM>
- <LIST_G_LINE_TOTAL>
- <G_LINE_TOTAL>
- <LIST_G_LINES>
- <G_LINES>
<LINE_NUMBER>1</LINE_NUMBER>
<LINE_TYPE>LINE</LINE_TYPE>
<ITEM_DESCRIPTION>ITEM_2</ITEM_DESCRIPTION>
<TRX_NUMBER>22</TRX_NUMBER>
</G_LINES>
</LIST_G_LINES>
</G_LINE_TOTAL>
</LIST_G_LINE_TOTAL>
</G_INV_TERM>
</LIST_G_INV_TERM>
</G_INVOICE>
</LIST_G_INVOICE>
</ORDER_BY>
</G_ORDER_BY>
</LIST_G_ORDER_BY>
</TMP002>
I am using the following looping structure within my template:
Following code has been used behind the form feilds.
Company Logo INVOICE
Header Section:
(Starting for loop for each transaction number)
<?for-each@SECTION:G_INVOICE?><?sort:TRX_NUMBER;'ascending';data-type='text'?>
(Starting for loop for each invoice term (this is used if an invoice is being paid in multiple installments. That way, each installment will be printed as saperate invoice stub))
<?for-each@SECTION:G_INV_TERM?><?sort:TERM_SEQUENCE_NUMBER;'ascending';data-type='number'?>
Customer Name: <?/TMP002/LIST_G_ORDER_BY/G_ORDER_BY/LIST_G_INVOICE/G_INVOICE/BILL_CUST_NAME?>
Address Line 1: <?/TMP002/LIST_G_ORDER_BY/G_ORDER_BY/LIST_G_INVOICE/G_INVOICE/BILL_ADDRESS1?>
Address Line 2: <?/TMP002/LIST_G_ORDER_BY/G_ORDER_BY/LIST_G_INVOICE/G_INVOICE/BILL_ADDRESS2?>
(Starting for loop for each invoice line)
<?for-each:G_LINES?>
Line Number: <?LINE_NUMBER?>
Line Type: <?LINE_TYPE?>
Trx Number: <?TRX_NUMBER?>
Item Desc: <?ITEM_DESCRIPTION?>
(Ending loop 1)
<?end for-each-group?>
(Ending loop 2)
<?end for-each-group?>
(Ending loop 3)
<?end for-each-group?>
Now, here starts the problem:
Previewing the report gives me an output like this.
Invoice 1:
Company Name Logo
Customer Name: Name 1
Address Line 1: Addr 1
Address Line 2: Addr 11
Line Number: 1
Line Type: LINE
Trx Number: 11
Item: Item_1
Invoice 2:
Company Name Logo
Customer Name: Name 1
Address Line 1: Addr 1
Address Line 2: Addr 11
Line Number: 1
Line Type: LINE
Trx Number: 22
Item: Item_2
Invoice 2 should be printing the "Customer Name", "Address Line 1" and "Address Line 2" as "Name 2", "Addr 2" and "Addr 22"respectively, where as it still prints those credentials belonging to Invoice 1.
Any suggestions would be of a great help.
Thanks.
