XML Publisher Reprot Changing Default Output

Is there anyway we can set default Preview mode from PDF to excel so that while submitting XML report for excel output we need not to go to option screen to set Format as excel. This is really cumbersome for users, I want Default output must be EXCEL instead of PDF.
Thanks

Please see these docs.

Changing Default Output Medium in VOFM

Hello All,
I need to change the default output medium of an invoice to whatever medium the customer has maintained in the customer master. I need to default this medium into the header output screen as the default output, overlaying whatever other default value may be set up. I tried doing this in a V3 VOFM routine by changing XNAST, and that isn't working. Could anyone please steer me in the tright direction, or let me know if I'm taking the wrong approach? I had thought entering an appropriate value in XNAST would do it, but so far, no. Thank you very much!

Hi
Try to mantain it with customizing tools. ie: tcodes VV31/VV32/VV33. If you need additional sequences you can customize it and change it in the customizing of message type (tcode V/40). For more details, go to SD and billing forums.
I hope this helps you
Regards
Eduardo

XML publisher report not generating output for huge XML files

Changed Depreciation Projections Report output type to XML.
Defined a Data Definition and a new Data Template (RTF) for this report.
Ran the Depreciation Projection Report to generate the XML output.
Ran the XML Report Publisher report to generate teh PDF/Excel output of the above report.
Output generated for smaller XML files. When XML size is big, the program is running for hours without generating the output.
Teh RTF template is basically a matrix report in which the number of columns in the report is based on the number of periods the report is run for.
The same is not working in the Desktop version also. The system is hanging when i try to view the preview pdf.
The XML file size is approximately 33 MB.
Please let me know if there is any way we can increase the memory size to see the output.
Thanks,
Ram.

Xml publisher excel output

Hi.
I have the rtf-template for xml-publisher report with excel output.
There is the table there. I need format the table according appointed requirements (in output excel file). For example, width of the columns of the table must be fixed width. How I can define width of the columns with xsl language in rtf-template?
[email protected]
Best regards

UP
There is positive progress there.
For example, I can change height of the heading row of the table by this way:
<xsl:attribute name = "height" xdofo:ctx="block-container">40mm</xsl:attribute>.
These xsl tags I put it in the text field of the rtf template between <?split-column-header:GROUP?> and <?VALUE?> tags (There are dinamic columns in the table).
But <xsl:attribute name = "width" xdofo:ctx="block-container">40mm</xsl:attribute> tags work incorrect, not as I need (Some cells is spanned in the height and division of the text is by the word).
May be I need some others tags? Or I need different object or property?
I want to note that xml-publisher's tags <?split-column-width:@width?> and <?split-column-width:width?> are not working in excel output (or I use it incorrect).
I am really need your help. How I can define exact width of dinamic columns?
Thanks.

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.

Turkish Character and Check Box "?" Problem in XML Publisher

In aplication and XML Publisher I must use Turkish Characters e.g. 'ş','ı','ğ','ç','ö' and check boxes. In html preview there is no problem, I can see all of them correctly. Hovewer in PDF preview in XML Publisher and also PDF output in Oracle Application all these Turkish Characters and Check Boxes looks like question mark (?). How can I solve this problem ?
Thanks for helps....

Hi Tim,
Related to Special Italian characters, when I try with "Courier New" font with static data,the XML Preview display those characters.But when those chars come from XML source file,they get vanished.I tried two cases:
Case1 ) IN EBS,I have attached courbi.ttf(font file) to the template manager(followed as per instructions in Font mapping section in User Guide).
When I try running the report ,its getting completed with Warning.
Case 2) I have also modified xdo.cfg ( as per Doc ID:400755.1 www.metalink.oracle.com)-
In both cases ,I am not acheving the desired results.
Please let me know where I am going wrong.

Problem with data size in XML Publisher report

Hi Experts,
I am working on EBS11i and database 9i. I working on XML Publisher reports, i have one XML Publisher report with generating output in EXCEL format. If i submit the report, if the data is huge (like 2.3 million records), it's ending up with warning, but if data is less, it's completing normal. Could somebody help me why it's behaving like this, is it because the report is XML Report, the xml file it's generating not have enough memory in server side if the data is huge.
Could somebody help me how to solve this issue.
Note: I need output in EXCEL format only.

Change default boot display, is it possible?

Hi!
I have MSI N660 TF 2GD5 OC card with two devices connected: 1) LCD monitor via DVI-D, 2) Projector via DVI-A.
Every time I turn on the PC I don't see anything on monitor until Windows starts. Video output during boot process goes to projector even though it's turned off.
Is it possible to change default output during system start up?
Swapping connectors isn't possible physically, because DVI-A have extra pins that won't fit to another socket.
If not, whats socket "default priority"? I'm thinking of buying hdmi cable for my projector to fix issue, will it help?

The dual link DVI-I connector you are most likely using for the DVI-A device is the primary connector. If it is connected to any display it will always be used for primary display when starting.
Solution would be to use the Projector with a DVI-A or I to HDMI or Displayport adapter or DVI-A or I to DVI-D adapter so you can use the monitor with the DVI-I connector.
