XSL-XML Templates

Hello,
My requirement is generate xml output file using BI Publisher. I think xsl-xml template will generate xml output from xml extract.
Is there a easy way of developing xsl-xml templates using BI Publisher for given XML Extract? I know we can write a xsl file manually but looking for a tool where I can drag and drop. I read this article: http://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/entry/building_xsl_templates
However, In my Jdev, I do not see an option of Inregration tier to map. Any info. on this is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I have changed the filter but still not showing up Integration tier. I am on JDev 11g Release2. Please let me know if I have to switch to different version of JDev or any other settings that I need to do.
Thanks again for your info.

  • Using XSL-XML template to convert name value pairs into XML elements

    Hi,
    I have a xml document in the format:
    <?xml version=”1.0”?>
    <body title="Mr" firstName="Joesph" middeNames="George Harry" lastname="Smith" countrycode="GBP"/>
    I need to convert this using a XSL-XML template in BI publisher to return XML in the following format, while doing some conversion, e.g. converting countrycode from GBP to UK:
    <?xml version=”1.0”?>
    <body>
    <title>Mr</title>
    <firstName>Joseph</firstName>
    <middleNames>George Harry</middleNames>
    <lastname>Smith</lastname>
    <countrycode>UK</countrycode>
    </body>
    Would appreciate if anyone could point me in the correct direction.

    Hi Sweta,
    Why MTB??? Message Transformation bean is used to change the format of the message... If you are planning to call any XSLT or java mapping through that then you can give it a try..
    >>how to get the last and first 3 special characters in the output text using MTB?
    Put them in message mapping itself and write it in File

  • Need to add one extra field in to Purchase Order XSL-FO Template

    Hi All,
    I am working on Purchase order XSL-FO template. I need to Customize it. I want to add few more fields in XSL-FO template which are getting the values from database. May be these columns are not present in XML data file , which the printing purchase order concurrent program is using.
    Suggest me, what should i do?
    regards
    Ravi

    Hi Paul,
    I need to customise the standard PO XSL-FO template but my problem is, this xsl-fo template has to be used by the seeded Oracle rdf report for display purpose.
    As far as i know, the xsl-fo template for PO is called by a java conc program
    and the Printed PO report(portrait) program uses the normal rdf layout.
    I think the xml data structure/tags produced by the rdf is not similar to the one produced by the java conc program.So, the XSL-FO template can't use the rdf report for displaying.
    If you have any info on this please let me know.
    Thanks,

  • Xsl:import and xsl:call-template errors for xslt in mediator (ORAMED-03601)

    Hello,
    I decided for performance issues with bpel execution to use a mediator instead.
    In my requester i have a mediator that justs recieves an xml message, uses an xsl transformation (version 2) on that message and then sends it to the EBS.
    The xsl file that's works correctly when used in a bpel process has both <xsl:import..../>and <xsl:call_template.../> tags.
    When i tried and used the same xsl in the mediator i get an ORAMED-03601 error:
    ORAMED-03601:[Invalid transformer configuration]Unable to create transformer. It could be because of transformation file or configuration issues. Reason : "xsl/Xform_PriceListListABMReqMsg_to_PriceListEBMReqMsg.xsl"Possible Fix:Check log file for any exceptions and contact Oracle Support Services for further help
    It works correctly again if i comment/remove all the imports and call-template and incorporate them in the xsl file itself.
    Do anyone know if there are some limitations using xsl in a mediator instead of a bpel?

    Hi,
    I have a problem with call-template. I have passed
    sed some parameter with call-template tag and used
    that parameter in the conditional check tag <xsl:if>
    i am getting the error. Can any body tell how to use
    this? I actuall want to dynamically pass the tag name
    as the parameter and check the attribute value of the
    tag passed in the if condition and then i want to
    person some action. How can i do it?
    Here is the call-template code:
    <xsl:call-template name="selected-unselected">
    <xsl:with-param
    ram name="currentTag">motor-carrier</xsl:with-param>
    </xsl:call-template>
    Here is the template definition:
    <xsl:template name="selected-unselected">
    <xsl:param
    m name="currentTag">Quick-Quote</xsl:param>
         <xsl:if test="./{$currentTag}/@selected='true'">
              <xsl:text>checked</xsl:text>
         </xsl:if>
         <xsl:if test="./{$currentTag}/@selected='false'">
              <xsl:text>Unchecked</xsl:text>
         </xsl:if>
    </xsl:template>
    Here is the sample xml code:
    <motor-carrier selected="true"/>
    <motor-truck selected="false"/>
    <sched-mobile-equip selected="false"/>
    Here instead of writing the condition check for every
    tag i want to write it once and dynamically pass the
    tag name as parameter to the template. If the
    attribute of the tag has value true then one message
    should be displayed otherwise a different message
    should be displayed.try this:
    <xsl:template name="selected-unselected">
         <xsl:paramm name="currentTag">Quick-Quote</xsl:param>
         <xsl:if test="./*[name()=$currentTag]/@selected='true'">
              <xsl:text>checked</xsl:text>
         </xsl:if>
         <xsl:if test="./*[name()=$currentTag]/@selected='false'">
              <xsl:text>Unchecked</xsl:text>
         </xsl:if>
    </xsl:template>

  • Background color change for  XML Template

    Hi All,
    We have created a xml template for creation of news using xml form builder. When we are creating a news by using this template the background color of the news always shows SAP default color (light blue) for both Renderlist and Show forms. Our requirement is to change the background color.
    Any help can be appreciated  and points will be rewarded immediately.
    Thanks,
    Satya

    Hi Satyadev,
    You have 3 options:
    Within the forms builder you can get a white background by setting the form to either "border" or "no border".  This is done by clicking anywhere on the form (where there is no other element) and modifying the "style" property
    You can modify the portal theme so that the background colour is your choice.  However this will affect all forms in the portal, not just this one.
    Or you can manually modify the form XSL stylesheet.  This involves typing the html code to apply your chosen colour.  However, this modification is lost if you re-generate the XML forms project, so this should be a last resort.
    Hope this helps,
    Chris

    Hi
    You should not have a problem. When you upgraded did you run the post install step?
    Step 5 Run XML Publisher Template Re-Generator concurrent program. (Required for Upgrades Only) (System Administrator)
    If you are upgrading from an earlier version of XML Publisher, you must run the XML Publisher Template Re-Generator concurrent program. Use Standard Request Submission to submit this request from the XML Publisher Administrator responsibility. The request will prompt you for the following parameter:
    Regeneration Criteria
    Select "Outdated" to regenerate only outdated templates.
    Select "All" to regenerate all templates.

  • Problem with xsl:import and xsl:apply-templates select="element_name"

    I import a xsl tranformation into another xsl file.
    During the transformation i want to limit the transformation to certain xml elements using the select attribute in apply-templates. However if I want restrict to xml elements whose templates are defined in the imported file, they will not be called.
    I'm using currently JWSDP1.4 but problem was also with 1.3.
    Can anybody help: Is this not xslt spec compliant or just a bug inXALAN ?
    regards pszawlow

    Solved it by myself:
    the problem was not the import but the following:
    xml file: looks like:
    <a>
       <b>
       </b>
        <c>
        </c>
    </a>xsl file looked like and should omit output of <c> </c>:
    <xsl:template match="/">
    <xsl:apply-templates select="b" />
    </xsl:template>
    <xsl:template match="b">
    </xsl:template>
    However / is not the level <a>, which I thought. So there was no matching <b>.
    I changed the xsl file to:
    <xsl:template match="/">
    <xsl:apply-templates />
    </xsl:template>
    <xsl:template match="a">
    <xsl:apply-templates select="b" />
    </xsl:template>
    <xsl:template match="b">
    </xsl:template>
    and it worked !

  • How to convert DTD files into XML(template) by using Java ?

    I am a beginner to java,and want to convert a random DTD file
    into a XML template(having no data).
    any guys can give me some suggestions ?
    thanks very much

    DTD allow you to validate a XML file.
    To do so, you can use API such as dom or xalan.
    To transform an XML file from a vocabulary A to vocabulary B, you have to write a XSLT style sheet, and use xerces to perform the transformation.
    Using tools such as XSL-FO, you can transform your XML into PDF.

  • How to view the xsl-fo template's output in BI Publisher

    Hi,
    How can we view the output for the xsl-fo template that is uploaded to the BI Publisher in our local itself?
    For RTF Template, we have plugin to view the output in MS-Word itself by clicking the output formats such as PDF / Excel / RTF, similarly can we view the xsl-fo template's output in local itself before we upload it to the Publisher URL.
    Any help please on this..
    Thanks in Advance

    Hello,
    open your report for editing, so you see the page with your layouts. Then click on the Link "Show as List" on the upper right. In the List of the output formats select "FO Formatted XML". This enables FO Export.
    Then execute your report, click on the small menu item at the upper right. The Menu opens, select Export -> FO.
    Hope that helps.

  • PO XML Template

    Hi,
    My name is James Shieh. Does anyone has a PO XML template out there? I want to take the standard Oracle PO report (rdf file) and make it a XML report. Does anyone has a XML template already setup to go? Please advice.
    Thanks.

    The template is in XSL-FO format rather than RTF format.
    You can use an XML editing tool such as 'XMLSpy' to modify this template and add logos, additional fields, layout as required:
    http://www.altova.com/products/xmlspy/xml_editor.html
    Yes - it is very frustrating that Oracle Development created this template in XSL-FO format rather than using Word or RTF or something that is easier to manipulate! However, XSL-FO isn't that hard to learn if you put in a day or so of background study ;-)

    Thank you Eugen and Hussein.
    The problem is not with the template.
    It seems to be a problem in that particular instance.
    Uploaded it in a different instance.
    However once i run the program, i cannot view the output as the browser window flashes and disappears.
    My colleague says , it is to do with the trusted site to download something from the browser.
    Can you please guide me on how to fix this ?

  • How to sort Data in XML template (rtf) file?

    Hi, I have an oracle 11i custom report (rdf) with an xml output to a PDF. There is a formula column in the report. Now I need the data to be sorted on this formula column. As we cannot sort on formula column, i have decided to find a way to sort it in the data in the XML template. But I don't really know how to sort and also where to specify the sort tag in the rtf file. I appreciate your response.
    Databse version : 9.2.0.8.0
    E-Biz Version : 11.5.10.2
    Oracle Reports Version : 6.0.8.27.0
    Oracle BI version : 10.1.3.2.1
    Note : I posted this question under : XML General forum also. But did not get any response. I assumed that may be thats not the right place to post it as my report is in e-Biz environment.

    Hi
    As long as you don't have your ^field commands grouped inside a ^group the order in the .dat file is not important. Your last command
    ^field BG_DOC_LN__LN_AM
    246624.12
    should populate field BG_DOC_LN_AM wherever you place it on your form. Obviously you need to name the fields according to your ^field commands and not just use tab (move to next field).
    Shout if this was not what you are asking.

  • Working with Flash content in XML template

    My knowledge base of html and DWCS3 is limited. My knowledge of Flash CS3 is better and have built a web site using it.
    This is a newbie DW question. Am working on an XML template, which contained the following folders:
    site_flash folder containing:  main_v8.swf, tfile_main.xml, style.css, index (firefox doc) (+gallery stuff)
    flash folder containing: main_v8.swf, main_v8.fla, tfile_main.xml, AC_RunActiveContent (JSS file) (+gallery stuff)
    I was told by the template people to use the site_flash folder but there are no visuals (Design views), to work with and could not access Flash through DW to alter the files in Flash. When I can get a Design view in DW, all I get is the f symbol. In all the tutorials I've watched on DW, there is a Design view to work with.
    SO, I used the flash folder and adjusted the main layout in the .fla file to suit my needs, and worked on the tfile_main.xml document in DW and they seemed to be 'talking' as my changes were recognized. When I test the file from either Flash or DW, it is perfect. But when I run it from my test folder through the server, the page formatting is off (page pushed down, menu buttons squashed, etc). There is no style.css sheet in the flash folder.
    Am willing to go back and start over with the site_flash folder with CSS page if this will resolve things, but don’t know how to edit the flash layout through DW. I need a Design view…am very weak in the html side of things.
    Test run:  http://www.mackenziemode.com.au/test.html
    Any advice you can give would be helpful.
    The Not-feeling-so-Handy Ma'am  

    In followup to my own frenzied query, in case anyone else is having the same problem, the solution to the 'squashed'
    web site (that's works perfectly on testing outside the browser) is to upload the main.xml file in binary mode.

  • Issue generating pdf from xml template, data and StreamServer webservices

    We purchased Abode LiveCycle Premium Print ES4. It included a product called StreamServe which we planned to use to merge xml templates and data into a pdf file using a StreamServe webservice (for developers). It seems the StreamServe webservices are not equal to that task.  Can anyone offer a hint how this automated pdf generation can be achieved using LCPP?  (I suspect it can be done using Workbench but I don't know this to be a fact.)
