This is Rama Krishna Mateti.
How r u doing?
I have developed an RTF template and I inserted Header and Footer in the template.
When I test with the sample XML data for the template I could not able to see the Header and Footer such as Logo, Page Number...etc in the PDF but I could see
the Output in PDF when I run the same template and input XML file in the other Computer.
When I uploaded the template and register it with Oracle Apps I could succesfully see the Header and Footer report along with Output in the PDF File.
Could you tell me do I need to make any modifications/S etting in the MS Word so that I could see the header & footer in the PDF?
Thanks in advance
Just a fyi, but the same problem occurs when submitting a request through OA Framework. The fix is the same that is listed here. oracle.apps.fnd .cp.request.Con currentRequest class, there is a method called "addLayout" that uses the same parameters above. I invoked that method before submitting the request, and I was able to view my XML template with no issues... Thanks again!

In the After Report Trigger of the RDF, we call the Bursting Program to split the xml file.
Is there any way that If there is no data generated by the RDF Report, then do not call the Bursting Program??
I'm facing the same problem. First I got the message "Unable to find published output for this request", then I added the layout (fnd_request.ad d_layout) as mentioned here. Now my process completed with a warning and I did not get any output. Log says:
"Post-pro cessing of request 2331741 failed at 25-FEB-2009 12:19:53 with the error message:
One or more post-processing actions failed. Consult the OPP service log for details."
How can I solve this problem?
Thanks for all your effort.

Can anybody tell me what exectly is the problem
From the discussions I understood and experienced that there is no way to select a layout for XML Publisher using After Report Trigger automatically.
Only way is to write a pl/sql wrapper around the layout selection criteria and call the program using it.
Please confirm.
Thank s,
Saritha
I'm facing an issue with the BI reports. It is required to include the BI Conc Prog. in a request set. The program completes with warning.
On analysis, I found out that the template is not being defaulted just as mentioned above.

Were you able to resolve the issue. I am running into the same issue ? if so, can you please share the solution?
than ks,
Thank s,
Shehzad.
Thanks for sharing the solution.
But after giving the layout parameters also, I am having the same issue. we are on apps 11.5.10 and for I have downloaded BI Publisher Desktop 10.1.3.4.2, Is that the problem.
Can you please let me know what would be the version which is compatible with 11.5.10. Please help me with this as I am new to XML Publisher.
And also I want to add images in the output file so do we need to follow a different method for that to develop the rtf file.
Thanks in Advance.
Thank s,
Anusha
I am getting issue while generating the XML output in Bi pib.
•When I run it on SQL developer, I am getting the actual output.
•But when I run it on BI publisher, I am getting some selected columns value only
•Also, it will take around 18 min to run in SQL developer and around 40-50 mins to run in BI publisher.
•Nee d help to get the output for each column and also to speed up the time to get the report output.
