Code:
awk 'BEGIN { FS="[<>]";      OFS=",";s1="\""         }
# Single close-tag
(NF==3) && /^[ \t]*<[/]/        {
         $0=""
         if(!TITLE)      # Print a title line
        {
                for(N=1; N<=L; N++)     $N=T[N]
                print
                TITLE=1
        }
         for(N=1; N<=L; N++)     {       $N=s1 A[T[N]] s1;     delete A[T[N]]  }
        print 
         }
 $2 && $4 && ($2 == substr($4, 2)) {
        if(!T[$2]) { T[$2]=++L; T[L]=$2 }       # Save titles for later
        gsub(/^[ \t]*/, "", $3);                # Get rid of spaces in data
        gsub(/[ \t]*$/, "", $3);
        A[$2]=$3                                # Save for later
}'   Input_file

Output will be as follows.
Code:
workOrderCode,branchCode,demand,demandLineItem,priority,completionDate
"313194073","2021:1206","","","","2016-07-10T08:00:00"

Above has been tested with your provided Input_file, if you have more things to do then please mention into your post with complete details.

Thanks,

Hi,

When I use the above code it shows like below

Code:
awk -f jobxml.awk WorkOrders.xml

Code:
awk: jobxml.awk:1: awk 'BEGIN { FS="[<>]";      OFS=",";s1="\""         }
awk: jobxml.awk:1:     ^ invalid char ''' in expression

Thanks,
Viswa

Test::use::ok(3)					User Contributed Perl Documentation					  Test::use::ok(3)

NAME
Test::use::ok - Alternative to Test::More::use_ok SYNOPSIS
use ok 'Some::Module'; DESCRIPTION
According to the Test::More documentation, it is recommended to run "use_ok()" inside a "BEGIN" block, so functions are exported at compile-time and prototypes are properly honored. That is, instead of writing this: use_ok( 'Some::Module' ); use_ok( 'Other::Module' ); One should write this: BEGIN { use_ok( 'Some::Module' ); } BEGIN { use_ok( 'Other::Module' ); } However, people often either forget to add "BEGIN", or mistakenly group "use_ok" with other tests in a single "BEGIN" block, which can create subtle differences in execution order. With this module, simply change all "use_ok" in test scripts to "use ok", and they will be executed at "BEGIN" time. The explicit space after "use" makes it clear that this is a single compile-time action. SEE ALSO
