  1. When populating XML files from an SCM, the SCM, LOB Type is defaulted based file extension and file data. When sourcing files files from EBS, LOB Type is defaulted to XML_SAMPLE.  Be sure to update the LOB Type to the appropriate type and regenerate the commands for bursting files, data templates, etcbased on file extension. In either case be sure to make sure that LOB Type is appropriate. For example,
    1. .pdf, .rtf, .xls, .xsl, .xlf files are TEMPLATE
    2. .xsd and .dtd files are XML_SCHEMA
  2. You must enter App Short Name, LOB Code, Territory and Language values for publisher files.
  3. Ensure the LOB Code of the XML files and Name of the Data Definition (XDO_DS_DEFINITION - AOL) match the LOB Code of the report template, as this is what ties them together.  Failure Failure to do so will result in the attachments not appearing under the data definition in EBS.
