Interpreting XML Output

You generate XML output by running a batch version or a report definition with a batch version. You use the XML output when creating BI Publisher templates with the Microsoft Word Template Builder.

See Oracle® Business Intelligence Publisher User's Guide.

The XML output contains information from the batch version specifications. Some of the kinds of information that you should consider when you review your XML output are:

• Section tags.

• Item tags.

• Formatted numbers.

• Formatted dates.

• Page headers and page footers.

• Conditional sections.

• Special characters.

• Level break sections.

• Child sections.

• Report properties.
