I have a requirement where i need to transform my xml.
This is the xml given to me
<InvoiceDocument>
<Invoice>
<d>100</d>
<a>120</a>
<Products>
<Product>
<b>11</b>
<c>12</c>
</Product>
<Product>
<b>13</b>
<c>14</c>
</Product>
</Products>
</Invoice>
</InvoiceDocument>
This is the xml that i require
<MessageParts xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2008/01/documents/LedgerGeneralJournal">
<LedgerJournalTable class="entity">
<r:z>50</r:z>
<LedgerJournalTrans class="entity">
<r:e>120</r:e>
</LedgerJournalTrans>
<LedgerJournalTrans class="entity">
<r:g>11</r:g>
<r:h>12</r:h>
</LedgerJournalTrans>
<LedgerJournalTrans class="entity">
<r:g>13</r:g>
<r:h>14</r:h>
</LedgerJournalTrans>
</LedgerJournalTable>
</MessageParts>
I tried to use this code for transforming my xml, I was able to transform most of the xml just was getting xmlns="" in each
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:r="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2008/01/documents/LedgerGeneralJournal">
<xsl:template match="InvoiceDocument">
<MessageParts
xmlns:r="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2008/01/documents/LedgerGeneralJournal">
<LedgerJournalTable class="entity">
<r:z>50</r:z>
<xsl:apply-templates select="Invoice"/>
</LedgerJournalTable>
</MessageParts>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="Invoice">
<LedgerJournalTrans class="entity'>
<r:e><xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(a/text()[1])"/></r:e>
</LedgerJournalTrans>
<xsl:apply-templates select="Products"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="Products">
<xsl:apply-templates select="Product"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="Product">
<LedgerJournalTrans class="entity'>
<g><xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(b/text()[1])"/></g>
<h><xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(c/text()[1])"/></h>
</LedgerJournalTrans>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
The output i am getting after applying this xlst is this, there is xmlns="" in the
<MessageParts xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2008/01/documents/LedgerGeneralJournal">
<LedgerJournalTable class="entity">
<r:z>50</r:z>
<LedgerJournalTrans class="entity" xmlns="">
<r:e>120</r:e>
</LedgerJournalTrans>
<LedgerJournalTrans class="entity" xmlns="">
<r:g>11</r:g>
<r:h>12</r:h>
</LedgerJournalTrans>
<LedgerJournalTrans class="entity" xmlns="">
<r:g>13</r:g>
<r:h>14</r:h>
</LedgerJournalTrans>
</LedgerJournalTable>
</MessageParts>
So can you help me to remove this xmlns=""

I'm familiar with simple muenchian grouping in XSL, but I've encountered a problem, which I honestly don't even know, how to approach it.
So I've got an XML:
<whiskies>
<whisky name="ABC" percent="" region="" type="">
<tastingNotesCollection/>
<bottles>
<bottle price="" size="" level="0" date=""/>
<bottle price="" size="" level="70" date=""/>
<bottle price="" size="" level="100" date=""/>
</bottles>
<comments/>
</whisky>
<whisky name="DEF" percent="" region="" type="">
<tastingNotesCollection/>
<bottles>
<bottle price="" size="" level="0" date=""/>
<bottle price="" size="" level="100" date=""/>
</bottles>
<comments/>
</whisky>
<whisky name="GHI" percent="" region="" type="">
<tastingNotesCollection/>
<bottles>
<bottle price="" size="" level="30" date=""/>
</bottles>
<comments/>
</whisky>
<whiskies>
And the goal is to group the whiskies by levels of a bottle:
So level="0" is considered empty.
Anything from level="1" to level="99" is considered open.
And level="100" is considered unopened.
So the transformed result (will be done in HTML) should look like this:
<h1>Empty</h1>
<ul>
<li>ABC</li>
<li>DEF</li>
</ul>
<h1>Open</h1>
<ul>
<li>ABC</li>
<li>GHI</li>
</ul>
<h1>Unopened</h1>
<ul>
<li>ABC</li>
<li>DEF</li>
</ul>
As you can see, the same whisky can show up in multiple groups, depending on how much bottles there are and how full those bottles are.
The second problem is, that the "Open" group doesn't have an exact value and can be aynthing from 1 to 99.
So yeah, don't really know if this can be solved at all or how to even start on this. Any tips appreciated.
I don't think you want to use Muenchian grouping for this. You would need to define a key that enumerates all values in the range from 1 to 99 - and I believe that would take away any advantage that using a key would otherwise bring.
Since your result has either exactly or at most 3 groups (your question is ambiguous in this respect), you could do simply:
XSLT 1.0
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/whiskies">
<output>
<group status="empty">
<xsl:for-each select="whisky[bottles/bottle/#level=0]">
<name>
<xsl:value-of select="#name"/>
</name>
</xsl:for-each>
</group>
<group status="open">
<xsl:for-each select="whisky[bottles/bottle[#level>0 and #level < 100]]">
<name>
<xsl:value-of select="#name"/>
</name>
</xsl:for-each>
</group>
<group status="unopened">
<xsl:for-each select="whisky[bottles/bottle/#level=100]">
<name>
<xsl:value-of select="#name"/>
</name>
</xsl:for-each>
</group>
</output>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
to get (after fixing the input to be a well-formed XML!):
Result
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<output>
<group status="empty">
<name>ABC</name>
<name>DEF</name>
</group>
<group status="open">
<name>ABC</name>
<name>GHI</name>
</group>
<group status="unopened">
<name>ABC</name>
<name>DEF</name>
</group>
</output>
Make your own adjustment for HTML output.
Added:
Here is an alternative approach using keys (though still not Muenchian grouping) which might be more performant:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:key name="w" match="whisky" use="bottles/bottle/#level" />
<xsl:key name="w1" match="whisky" use="boolean(bottles/bottle[#level!=0 and #level!=100])" />
<xsl:template match="/whiskies">
<output>
<group status="empty">
<xsl:for-each select="key('w', 0)">
<name>
<xsl:value-of select="#name"/>
</name>
</xsl:for-each>
</group>
<group status="open">
<xsl:for-each select="key('w1', true())">
<name>
<xsl:value-of select="#name"/>
</name>
</xsl:for-each>
</group>
<group status="unopened">
<xsl:for-each select="key('w', 100)">
<name>
<xsl:value-of select="#name"/>
</name>
</xsl:for-each>
</group>
</output>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Or even:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:key name="bottle" match="bottle" use="ceiling(#level div 99)" />
<xsl:template match="/whiskies">
<output>
<group status="empty">
<xsl:for-each select="key('bottle', 0)/../..">
<name>
<xsl:value-of select="#name"/>
</name>
</xsl:for-each>
</group>
<group status="open">
<xsl:for-each select="key('bottle', 1)/../..">
<name>
<xsl:value-of select="#name"/>
</name>
</xsl:for-each>
</group>
<group status="unopened">
<xsl:for-each select="key('bottle', 2)/../..">
<name>
<xsl:value-of select="#name"/>
</name>
</xsl:for-each>
</group>
</output>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
If you did want to use xsl:key, you could create 3 of them with the filter criteria:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output indent="yes" />
<xsl:key name="Empty" match="whisky[bottles/bottle/#level=0]" use="#name"/>
<xsl:key name="Open" match="whisky[bottles/bottle/#level[. > 1 and . < 99]]" use="#name"/>
<xsl:key name="Unopened" match="whisky[bottles/bottle/#level=100]" use="#name"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:variable name="whiskies" select="/whiskies/whisky/#name"/>
<xsl:for-each select="document('')/xsl:stylesheet/xsl:key/#name">
<xsl:variable name="status" select="."/>
<h1><xsl:value-of select="$status"/></h1>
<ul>
<xsl:for-each select="$whiskies[key($status, .)]">
<li><xsl:value-of select="."/></li>
</xsl:for-each>
</ul>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

I tried matching the Object element but was unable to since i am already matching its parent element that is RunObject
Your mistake is that you cannot define a template inside of a template. So move the <xsl:template match="r:Object[#class='entity']> to the root level and add an <xsl:apply-templates select="r:Object" /> at its place.
The stylesheet could look like this:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:m="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2011/01/documents/Message" xmlns:r="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2008/01/documents/Run" exclude-result-prefixes="m r">
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<!-- move all elements to no namespace -->
<xsl:template match="*">
<xsl:element name="{local-name()}">
<xsl:copy-of select="#*"/>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
<!-- rename MessageParts to Document + skip the Run wrapper -->
<xsl:template match="m:MessageParts">
<Document>
<xsl:apply-templates select="r:Run/*"/>
</Document>
</xsl:template>
<!-- rename RunObject to Item + reorder child nodes -->
<xsl:template match="r:RunObject[#class='entity']">
<Item>
<xsl:apply-templates select="r:A1" />
<xsl:apply-templates select="r:A2" />
<xsl:apply-templates select="r:Object" />
<xsl:apply-templates select="r:A4" />
</Item>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="r:Object[#class='entity']">
<Base>
<xsl:apply-templates select="r:A3" />
</Base>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Its output is (nearly) as desired:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Envelope>
<Header>
<MessageId>{A124-B421-C325-D467}</MessageId>
<Action>find</Action>
</Header>
<Body>
<Document>
<Item>
<A1>NA</A1>
<A2>False</A2>
<Base>
<A3>02</A3>
</Base>
<A4>ER</A4>
</Item>
</Document>
</Body>
</Envelope>
I added the adjective "nearly", because this result has no namespace, while the sample of your desired outcome is in the namespace
xmlns:m="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2011/01/documents/Message"
But because you defined a template that removes the namespaces of all elements, I did ignore that. I simply assume that this part of your question is erroneous.
If you like to change that, restrict the first template and add a general identity template:
<!-- move all elements to no namespace -->
<xsl:template match="*[namespace-uri() != 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2011/01/documents/Message']">
<xsl:element name="{local-name()}">
<xsl:copy-of select="#*"/>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="node()|#*">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="node()|#*"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
This would make your output containing the root namespace:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Envelope xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2011/01/documents/Message">
<Header>
<MessageId>{A124-B421-C325-D467}</MessageId>

</Header>
<Body>
<Document xmlns="">
<Item>
<A1>NA</A1>

<Base>
<A3>02</A3>

<A4>ER</A4>

I tried the above code but was not able to change the format of the xml
Instead of:
<xsl:template match="m:Envelope"/>
that removes the Envelope node and all its descendants, you need to remove only the Envelope wrapper and continue processing its contents:
<xsl:template match="m:Envelope">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
Likewise for the other wrappers. In fact, you could replace all of these:
<xsl:template match="m:Envelope"/>
<xsl:template match="m:Header"/>
<xsl:template match="m:MessageId"/>
<xsl:template match="m:Action"/>
<xsl:template match="m:Body"/>
with:
<xsl:template match="m:*">
<xsl:apply-templates select="*"/>
</xsl:template>
How to rename the parent node and rearrange the child nodes simultaneously.
I tried some code but was unable to get the desired output.

I wanted to remove the namespaces, rename the Parent tags and rearrange the child tags.
So i used this code
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"

<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<!-- move all elements to no namespace -->
<xsl:template match="*">
<xsl:element name="{local-name()}">
<xsl:copy-of select="#*"/>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
<!-- rename MessageParts to Document + skip the Run wrapper -->
<xsl:template match="m:MessageParts">
<Document>
<xsl:apply-templates select="r:Run/*"/>
</Document>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="r:RunObject[#class='entity']">
<xsl:copy>

<xsl:apply-templates select="A4" />
<xsl:apply-templates select="A2" />
<xsl:apply-templates select="A1" />
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<!-- rename RunObject to Item -->
<xsl:template match="r:RunObject[#class='entity']">
<Item>
<xsl:apply-templates />
</Item>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
I was able to remove the namespaces, rename the parent tags but was unable to rearrange the child tags. The output i got was this
?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

But the desired output is this

Problem #1:
You have two templates matching the same nodes:
<xsl:template match="r:RunObject[#class='entity']">
Only the last one of these will be applied.
Problem #2:
The elements A1, A2, A3 and A4 are in a namespace inherited from their Run ancestor. You need to use the prefix bound to that namespace when selecting them.
See if this works for you:
XSLT 1.0

I have tried various things but still i am not to make one final change.
I am not able to change <Runobject class="Entity"> to <Item>.
This the xslt code that i used to alter the xml format
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:s="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2008/01/documents/Run"
>
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>
**Removes the run tag along with the namespace
<xsl:template match="s:Run">
<xsl:apply-templates select="*"/>
</xsl:template>
**Copies all the tags
<xsl:template match="#* | node()">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="#* | node()"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
**Used this code to replace the <RunObject class="entity"> with <Item> but is not working
<xsl:template match="RunObject[#class='Entity']">
<xsl:element name="Item">
<xsl:apply-templates />
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
**Removes all namespaces
<xsl:template match="*">
<xsl:element name="{local-name()}">
<xsl:apply-templates select="#* | node()"/>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
**Copies attributes
<xsl:template match="#*">
<xsl:attribute name="{local-name()}">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:template>
<!-- template to copy the rest of the nodes -->
<xsl:template match="comment() | text() | processing-instruction()">
<xsl:copy/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
I am fairly new to xslt so i mght have certain mistakes while writing the code
There are two reasons why your template:
<xsl:template match="RunObject[#class='Entity']">
<xsl:element name="Item">
<xsl:apply-templates />
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
does not match anything:
RunObject is in a namespace, and you are not using a prefix;
XML is case-sensitive; the class attribute contains "entity", not "Entity".
It should work if you do:
<xsl:template match="s:RunObject[#class='entity']">
<xsl:element name="Item">
<xsl:apply-templates />
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
Other than that, I believe you could shorten the entire thing considerably - say:
XSLT 1.0
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:m="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2011/01/documents/Message"
xmlns:r="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2008/01/documents/Run"
exclude-result-prefixes="m r">
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<!-- move all elements to no namespace -->
<xsl:template match="*">
<xsl:element name="{local-name()}">
<xsl:copy-of select="#*"/>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
<!-- rename MessageParts to Document + skip the Run wrapper -->
<xsl:template match="m:MessageParts">
<Document>
<xsl:apply-templates select="r:Run/*"/>
</Document>
</xsl:template>
<!-- rename RunObject to Item -->
<xsl:template match="r:RunObject[#class='entity']">
<Item>
<xsl:apply-templates />
</Item>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
