Bursting in XML/ BI Publisher

In this article i will give an overview of Bursting in BI Publisher (Formerly XML Publisher ) and the Pre requisites to enable Bursting .

Background / Business Requirement for Bursting

In Oracle Purchasing we have PO Print Report which can be used to print new or selected Purchase order. Organizations usually

schedule this program on a daily basis to print new purchase orders. If we want to integrate this Oracle Report to XML/BI

Publisher to create eye candy layouts and email the PO automatically to the suppliers, the common issue we face is :-

How to split the XML file created by report ? This is because report will create a single XML file consisting of the all the PO selected and if we apply

the template on this XML file , it will create a s ingle PDF file consisting of all the PO’s , and we definitely don’t want purchase orders sent to a

supplier which is not related to him .If we have to send PO to individual supplier there has to be a way to parse the XML file generated from the PO

Print Report.After parsing the XML file we can break the XML into smaller chunks based on the PO Number and then email the PO to respective

Suppliers.

Advantages of XMLP bursting

a. No Additional Coding, just need to create XML bursting File. ( Isn't it exciting , otherwise we would have to write java program to split the XML File

and then use XMLP delivery manager API to send emails .

b. Process of Creating XML data Definition and Template remains AS – IS .

Prerequisites

a. Apply patch 5968876 if not already applied

b. Verify XMLP version is 5.6.3

Steps to Verify if XMLP is indeed 5.6.3

1. adident Header $OA_JAVA/oracle/apps/xdo/common/MetaInfo.class

Below matrix shows the the version you are and the patch to be applied to come to 5.6.3

d. After the Patch is applied we will see a new Bursting control file button in the XML Publisher Data Definition Page

To check this, please go to Responsibility "XML Publisher Administrator", and search for any existing report, and click on Update. While updating an

existing data-definition, you should see the button Bursting Control File.

Now since we have finished setting up , now we will see how to implement Bursting . The major component in this is bursting control file

What is a bursting file ?

Its an XML file which tells bursting engine

a) How to split the XML File created ?

b) How to deliver the Documents ?

Lets see a sample bursting file and its components

a) <xapi:request select> tag tells busting engine , bursting should be done at the occurrence of which tag ?

b) <xapi:delivery > tag tells bursting engine , which delivery mechanism to be used and on what condition ?

Sample bursting file

<xapi:requestset xmlns:xapi="http://xmlns.oracle.com/oxp/xapi" type="bursting">

<xapi:request select="/xxx_HQ_XML_POXPRPOL/LIST_G_INIT_INFO/G_INIT_INFO/LIST_G_HEADERS/G_HEADERS">

<xapi:delivery>

<xapi:email id="123" server="xxxort" port="25" from=" [email protected]" reply-to=" [email protected]">

<xapi:message id="123" to="${CF_VENDOR_EMAIL}" attachment="true" subject=" Purchase Order No: ${POH_PO_NUM}">

Please review the attached PO ${POH_PO_NUM}

</xapi:message>

</xapi:email>

</xapi:delivery>

<xapi:document output-type="pdf" delivery="123">

<xapi:template type="rtf" location="/u0350/app/apps/UAT/xx/1.0/data/XXHPAPOPRINT.rtf">

</xapi:template>

</xapi:document>

</xapi:request>

</xapi:requestset>

Please Note : While doing testing please change the "to address" to your email address , else it will send the documents out to that email address

.

Data Definition

Create the Data Definition and Template the normal way, where the Short name of the data definition is same as the short name of concurrent

program to which you are integrating XMLP.While creating Data Definition Upload you bursting XML File . If there are any parsing issues in the XML

file it will give error , please correct the format of the file and try to upload again .

Template File

Create the Template and Upload your Template file

Concurrent Program Registeration

In the Concurrent Program give the Output fomat as XML and the Concurrent Program Short name should be same as the data definition name .

After Report Trigger Changes

Now the Final Step , in the After report Trigger of your .RDf add the following code to call bursting program . This will lanuch the bursting program

from your report , otherwise you will have to run the Bursting program ( which is a Java Concurrent Program ) manually .

Now you are all set to do the testing , run the report , please keep in mind to change "to email address" in the bursting control file to your email id

while doing the testing . you will see the PO pdf coming to the email address given in the bursting control file.

Just burst my first BI Publisher report! Thanks for taking the time to write the article.

I got a bit hung up on the template location as I'm working in the e-business suite.

The solution was to use the following bit of sql

select lt.application_short_name || '.' || lt.template_code || '.' || lt.default_language || '.' || lt.default_territory as burst_template_xdo_location

from xdo_templates_b lt

where lt.template_code like 'MY_TEMPLATE%'

then code the location as

Also if you are trying to track down your concurrent request id (for the call to XDOBURSTREP) you can find it in PL/SQL using the profile

function

FND_PROFILE.VALUE('CONC_REQUEST_ID');

Question on how to publish the same information content to multiple recipient groups

This is the issue I have. We have 5 number of regions and 10 number of recipient groups with in each region. Therefore I need to publish

50 reports. I am planning to do a row-level filtering based on the

region input within the one single report and also hide or show different sections of data using the one template based on the recipient

group user input. Now I don't want to run the concurrent programs 50 times to generate and send 50 reports but rather use the bursting

control file in some way. At the same time, I don't want the report to be split up in any way. Hope this makes sense.

Need to develop mechanism for varying XML Publisher output by instance....

w ritten by nilesh , March 19, 2009

I am facing some problem in this issue.

Please help me....

I need to develop mechanism for varying XML Publisher output by instance in other words Instance based Output of XML Report Publisher

without customizing particular rdf or package.

for this we need to call particular template or format that template depend upon Instance name.

So we need instance name in XML file but we don't have instance name in that particular XML Data file.

How can I add Instance name in rtf template and XML data file without customizing XML Source package or rdf Report to compare that

Instance name with current instance name in RTF Template.

For example:

If Instance name = Production then call watermark of company logo otherwise simple report output.

Note: don’t have Instance name in XML Data file.

Hi Prasad.

Thanks for the sharing a very nice document on XML bursting concepts.

In my case I have done XML bursting with RTF template.

I tired with the above example but it didnt worked.

Your help will be appreciated.

Thanks
