XML Publisher Template File Missing
The following SQL links together the XML publisher Report Definition, Data Source, Template, and Template file, to identify any reports that have a template where the template file definition is missing. Here's what the template definition looks like when the template file definition is missing:
Reporting Tools > XML Publisher > Report Definition > Template tab
![]() |
If you a run an XML publisher report with a template file missing, you will generally get a message like this in your standard output log:
Active template file not found in the template definition <TEMPLATE_NAME> for date <EFFDT>. (235,2515)
