Generating the XML File for Inventories

Use the Inventory - POL - 74P program (R74P513) to generate the XML file for inventories. The system uses the values that you have set up in the processing options or during data selection to identify the records to include in the report.

The system runs the report based on the value specified in the Business Unit processing option. If the processing option is blank, the system runs the report based on the Company information.

When you run the R74P513 program to print the XML file, the system checks the inventory section that is mapped to the reporting company from the Inventory Section Mapping - POL - 74P table (F74P513). Then, the system retrieves the inventory information for the mapped inventory section from the Item Ledger File table (F4111) and prints the retrieved inventory information in the XML file.

Before you print the XML file, you can print the report as a PDF and Microsoft Excel document to verify the selected records in a format that is easy to review. To print the report in these formats, you use the XJDE0002 version of the Inventory - POL - 74P program (R74P513) on the Available Versions form.
