Generate Data Model XML

Using Oracle BI Publisher, you can create custom layout templates by adding the subscription data model attributes supplied with the application. By default, there's only one template supplied: Subscription template.

To find the subscription data model attributes, use the Generate Data Model XML action to download the latest data model attributes as a static XML file.

In Subscription Management, when you open a subscription and you look at it in the Summary - Overview page, you can use the Actions menu and select Preview. This preview creates a printable PDF output that you can use to preview the subscription.

Here's the list of attribute types included in the downloaded data model XML file:

  • Subscription

  • Subscription additional parties

  • Subscription team

  • Subscription parties contacts

  • Subscription product

  • Subscription product charges

  • Subscription product charge adjustments

  • Subscription product charge tiers

  • Subscription product bill lines

  • Subscription product bill adjustments

  • Subscription covered levels (all child entities)

  • Subscription coverage line (coverage entitlement)

  • Subscription product relationships

  • Custom child attributes at subscription header and product level
