Multiple Information Views between App Providers Problem

Hello,
I had mapped an information view that was showing up fine on the view between App provider A and App Provider B.
Then I added another information view flowing from A->B in Static_Application_Provider_Architecture in Protege.
The viewer now shows that there are two information views and separates them with a comma. However, when I click on the information view hyperlink it shows an empty page for the Information View. See screenshots.
Why am I getting a blank page?

Hi Jamal,
Instead of adding a new information view to the existing relationship, you should be creating a new relationship for each information flow. This also allows you to set attributes for that specific flow such as frequency and method. This view will render a new arrow for each relationship.
Hope this helps
Neil

Hi Jamal,
We discussed here that there could be scenario where multiple Views are transferred in a single transaction so to support that we've made a tweak to the view to support that.
I've attached here and it'll will go into a subsequent release.
To use this, simply copy the file to the "applications" folder of the web app.
Thanks
Neil

Thank you so much for the clarification. I created a new relationship and it worked fine.
Also appreciate the new xsl. But before I update the code, can you please give me an example where multiple views could be part of a single transaction?
Also, I am getting a bit confused about the difference between a Data Object and a View. I have a dataobject called Oil Well which has several attributes. This object is passed from system A to system B (A->B). To get the arrows from A->B in the viewer I have to create a view (which I'm calling Oil Well because that's what the flow really is. Now I have a Data object called "Oil Well" and a view also called "oil Well"! In the view "Oil Well"...I am simply adding the "Oil Well" data object. In my case the creation of the view seems redundant. Am I using the view correctly?
Thanks

Hi Jamal,
Apologies, the file I sent is only compatible with Essential v5 which I assumed you were running.
I'll look at getting a v4 version for you but it make take a few days before I can look at this
Cheers
Neil
