Problem: What is the compatability of the SRS program "Program - Publish FSG Report" with XML Publisher?



Solution:


Currently the SRS program "Program - Publish FSG Report" works only for XML Publisher 4.5. Since the internal second step is hardcoded for XML Publisher 4.5, it will error out if a different version is used.

The workaround is to first run FSG (online/SRS) with the XML output option. Then the XML Publisher (any version) should be run to pick up the output of the previous run to produce the PDF file.

NOTE: After applying FSG patch 5713082 or later, the SRS program "Program - Publish FSG Report" works with XML Publisher versions 4.5, 5.0, 5.5, 5.6.0, 5.6.1, 5.6.3.
After patch 5713082 (or later) is applied, FSG XML output now has < fsg:RptCell > new attribute RealNum that contains a real number value. All previous XML templates still work in the same way as they did before. However now a new template can be created from an old one, and modified to use instead of , to work with real numbers - not formatted numbers.

This new feature/attribute is the default, after patch 5713082.
To disable this feature and use the old formatted numbers, do the following:

Define the Profile.
Go to "Application Developer" -> Profile -> create new profile with:
Name : RG_CREATE_NUMBERS_XML
Application : Application Report Generator
User Profile Name : FSG: Create Numbers in XML
Description : Create Numbers in XML
Active Dates Start : 01/01/1951
All check boxes should be checked.
Save it.

Assign the Profile.
Go to "System Administrator" -> Profiles -> System -> Query all profiles with name starting as "FSG%".
Go to profile "FSG: Create Numbers in XML" , enter proper value on a site level, save it.
Proper values are :
N - do not create numbers in XML;
If profile "FSG: Create Numbers in XML" is not present, FSG creates the new attribute in XML output.
