Generating and Editing the Input XML File

You must use a file called jdeRequest.xml to instruct the system to create an XML input file based on a JD Edwards EnterpriseOne report. If you do not have this file available, run this command:

runubexml G CREATE_XML jdeRequest.xml

This command generates the jdeRequest.xml file, which appears as:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
  <jdeRequest type="ube" user="MYUSERID" pwd="passward" environment="MYENV" role=
"MYROLE" session="">
	<!--This document is automatically generated by the J.D. Edwards APIs-->
	<ACTION TYPE="CREATE_XML" TEMPLATE_TYPE="LAUNCH_JOB">
		<REPORT_NAME VALUE="MYREPORT"/>
		<REPORT_VERSION VALUE="MYVERSION"/>
		<JARGON_SYSTEM_CODE VALUE="1"/>
		<COMMENTS VALUE="1"/>
		<DATA_TYPING VALUE="1"/>
		<BUSINESS_VIEW VALUE="0"/>
		<PRINTER_INFORMATION VALUE="0"/>
		<POPULATED VALUE="1"/>
	</ACTION>
 </jdeRequest>

This table describes the modifications required by the jdeRequest.xml file:

Component	Description
user ="MYUSERID"	Substitute MYUSERID with your JD Edwards EnterpriseOne user id.
pwd = "passward"	Substitute passward with your JD Edwards EnterpriseOne password. The password must be submitted in plain text; therefore, the jdeRequest.xml file should be kept in a secure location on the file system.
environment ="MYENV"	Substitute MYENV with the name of the appropriate JD Edwards EnterpriseOne environment.
role ="'MYROLE"	Substitute MYROLE with your JD Edwards EnterpriseOne role.
REPORT_NAME VALUE ="MYREPORT"	Substitute MYREPORT with the object name of the report, such as R014021, on which to base the parameters for the XML input file.
REPORT_VERSION VALUE = "MYVERSION"	Substitute MYVERSION with the name of the batch version on which to base the parameters for the XML input file, such as XJDE0001. This is a required value; you cannot base the XML input file on a report template.
JARGON_SYSTEM_CODE VALUE	Enter 1 to enable jargon overrides. Enter 0 to disable jargon.
COMMENTS VALUE	Enter 1 to view XML comments in the xml file. Enter 0 to suppress comments.
DATA_TYPING VALUE	Enter 1 to view the data type (numeric, alpha, and so on.) populating the fields. Enter 0 to suppress data type identification.
BUSINESS_VIEW VALUE	Enter 1 to view which business view columns are being used to generate the report. Enter 0 to suppress business view data.
PRINTER INFORMATION VALUE	Enter 1 to view printer information for the printer to be used for the report. Enter 0 to suppress printer information. Note: Even though print values are displayed in both the jdeRequest.xml and the input XML file, you cannot override printer values with the XML input file.
POPULATED VALUE	Enter 1 to populate the resulting XML input file with the settings and options specified for the batch version. Enter 0 to generate a blank XML input file. Typically, you want to enter 1 in this field.
