The simplest way of grabing ReportSuccesses is to use SetPropertyRule.
See documentation in digester distribution for this.

Basically you will have to create digester, attach rule (with alias
since ReportSuccesses is not valid bean name), add pattern (something
like  IDTDebitInterface/DebitRequests in your case) and parse file with
digester parse method. When parsing is finished you will have property
of your bean setted.

As for your second question. No. Digester can not create XML documents,
but you can look for DOM4J for example witch will suite your needs.
