I have posted about the new server side versions of BIP (10.1.3.2.x) and EBS (5.6.3) being available now ... what I neglected to mention was the availability of a new version of the Template Builder for Word. There are some new enhancements for both BIP and EBS user alike:
- Crosstab Wizard
- Multiple Levels
- Level and report Totals
- Enhanced Chart Dialog
- Multiple Line Charts
- 3D Charts with gradient fills
- Real time preview
- Table wizard
- Translation testing support
- Template Validation Checker
Those of you using BIP Server you get a few more bells and whistles. Rather than download sample data to your desktop and manually load it to the template builder, you can now connect to the BIP server, find a report, create a new template or modify an existing one, test and then upload to the server from the builder ... makes the whole development process much smoother.
You can get the new version from the OTN download page, http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/publishing/index.html
Get Templating !

Tim,
Thank you for these timely updated and what version goes where!
One follow-up for Template Builder for Word for EBS is that version 5.6.45 or a newer one? Additionally is it on OTN or on Metalink?
Thank you,
David

We are currently using 5.6 Build 45 (with Apps). Is 5.6.3 a newer version? (Just doublechecking)
Thanks!
