XSL Grouping not giving any result - xslt

Question

I want to group on "zero:PosNo"
If I remove the group-commands it returns a result, but obviously it returns this:
INSERT INTO RAPP_ADM.MTO_POS_IMP_TAB (PROJECT_NO, MTO_OWNER_NO, POS_NO, PART_NO, DESCRIPTION, QTY, UNIT, TOT_LEN, TOT_WEIGHT, DRAWING, GRADE, TRACE, BI_PRODUCT, SURFACE, CALC, DISCIPLINE, MADE_BY, POS_NO2, PLT_SEQ, OBJECT_SQ, OBJECT_REVISION)

</xsl:for-each-group>
</xsl:for-each>
This is what I want to achieve:
I want the numbers on PosNo 1 to be summarized, so that it returns just one insert for PosNo 1, and not two.
The same for Posno 2, 3 etc.

I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. Am I making any obvious mistakes?

Answer 1

I guess instead of
<xsl:for-each select="/zero:Zero/zero:MTOOwner/zero:DocumentNo/zero:BiProduct/zero:Part">
<xsl:for-each-group select="/" group-by="zero:POS_NO">
<xsl:sort select="zero:PosNo" />
you want
<xsl:for-each-group select="/zero:Zero/zero:MTOOwner/zero:DocumentNo/zero:BiProduct/zero:Part" group-by="zero:POS_NO">
<xsl:sort select="current-grouping-key()" />
But is is a guess, show us your input structure and the desired result structure.

Answer 2

<xsl:for-each-group select="/">
has to be wrong, because "/" selects a single node and grouping a single node is never useful.
But without seeing the input XML, it's hard to tell you what you should have written instead.
