1.

Creating Custom Application:

Navigation
System Administrator->Application->Register

2.Registering Concurrent Program

Navigation
System Administrator->Program -> Define

See the Program is Registered in the Custom Application ABC Custom and Executable name is
‘XDODTEXE’ and Output Format ‘XML’.
3.Creating Data Definition
Navigation
XML Publisher Administrator->Home->Data Definitions->Create Data Definition
N.B : Data Definition Short code Must Match your Concurrent Program Short Code

4.Attach Data Template

Here we need to attach the Data Source (xml) File.

5.Attach the XML File

Click Apply
The XML Data Source File Content
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<dataTemplate name="ABC_PO_REPORT" description="Purchase Order Report" version="1.0">
<properties>
<property name="include_parameters" value="false" />
<property name="include_null_Element" value="false" />
</properties>
<parameters>
<parameter name="pd_from_date" dataType="date"/>
<parameter name="pd_to_date" dataType="date"/>
</parameters>
<dataQuery>
<sqlStatement name="Q1">
<![CDATA[SELECT poh.segment1 "PO Number",
poh.creation_date "PO Date"
FROM po_headers_all poh
WHERE poh.creation_date BETWEEN :pd_from_date and :pd_to_date]]>
</sqlStatement>
</dataQuery>
<dataStructure>
<group name="ROW" source="Q1">
<element name = "SEGMENT1" value="PO Number"/>
<element name = "CREATION_DATE" value="PO Date"/>
</group>
</dataStructure>
</dataTemplate>

6. Now we need to attach RTF

Navigation
XML Publisher Administrator -> Home -> Template->Create New Template

RTF File Screen shot:

N.B: You can give any short code to Template but You should attach the
Correct Data Definition.
Now the XMLP Report is Ready for Execution.
7.Now we should also have a look at migration of the same
Migration of the same comprise of several steps:
Perquisites for Migration
a. LDT Commands for Migrating AOL Objects
b. XDO Loader Commands to Load Physical files (XML, RTF) files in this case.
Perquisites for Migration
a. Download all LDT Files for AOL Objects as well as physical files
b. Make sure to move the Physical files to a specific location in the Unix box.
Preferably it should be placed in $CUSTOM_TOP/publisher/templates.
By default this folder may not exist you should create one then.
Place your RTF and XML file in this location.
LDT Commands to Download AOL Objects
1. FNDLOAD Command for Concurrent Program
FNDLOAD $CLIENT_USERNAME/$CLIENT_PASSWORD 0 Y DOWNLOAD
$FND_TOP/patch/115/import/afcpprog.lct ABC_PO_REPORT_CP.ldt PROGRAM

‘ABC_PO_REPORT’
2. FNDLOAD Command for Data Definition and Template
FNDLOAD $CLIENT_USERNAME/$CLIENT_PASSWORD 0 Y DOWNLOAD
$XDO_TOP/patch/115/import/xdotmpl.lct ABC_PO_REPORT_DD.ldt XDO_DS_DEFINITIONS
APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME = ‘ABCCUST’ DATA_SOURCE_CODE = ‘ABC_PO_REPORT’
TMPL_APP_SHORT_NAME=’ABCCUST’ TEMPLATE_CODE=’ABC_PO_REPORT_RTF’
3. XDOLOAD Command to Download Data Definition File
java oracle.apps.xdo.oa.util.XDOLoader DOWNLOAD

N.B :
ABCCUST – Application Short Name
-DB_USERNAME = Apps Username
-DB_PASSWORD = Apps Pasword( Database password for apps user)
-JDBC_CONNECTION = Connection Details ( TNS Entry)
-LOB_TYPE = AOL Type for XML Objects
-LOB_CODE = Short Code
-Language = Language for Data Definition /RTF . For English use ‘en’
-TERRITORY = Geographical Location. For United States use ‘US’
-lct_FILE = Configuration File
