Hello,

Before I only imported one file each week, now do I need to import the file every day.

Do You have a chance to update me? I have realy tried to find an own solution.

Sorry for bringing up an old thread, but I used the solution in this thread to extract data from an onix xml file. I get stuck when trying to import from a repeating field in the xml file, in particular, the author field has multiple repeating entries if there is more than one author. At the moment I can only pick up the first author. Can anyone give me any advice on how to modify the xsl file so that I can extract the other authors?

Please start a new thread and post your stylesheet as well as an example of your input. And make sure we understand how the input is supposed to map to your target table.

The way to do such translations is

  1. To make export of 1 record pr table that you would like to import to with as low amount of fields as possible, yet as many as needed.
  2. Make one XSLT pr table you would like to translate your XML to; UBL as an example, using the exports from pt 1 as template
  3. Import once pr XSLT and you will have populated that field you exported in pt 1
