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 the report .This is because the 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 single 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.
