The output to the actual archive page works perfectly, i can see all the posts; however when i create the new Domdocument and save it (all within the wp loop) it saves the page (name.xml) but it only shows a single post and not all the posts in that post type loop.

Thanks Hazard that was closest to the solution.
I created an archive-custom-pt.php and used $title= get_field('title'); to populate the XML document.

Sample idea

$doc = new DOMDocument('1.0','UTF-8');
$doc->formatOutput = true; 
$doc->preserveWhiteSpace = false;

$root = $doc->createElement('Book');
$root = $doc->appendChild($root);

// Title
$title = $doc->createElement('title');
$title = $root->appendChild($title);

$doc->save("books.xml");

The only issue i have now is it will write the post custom field data to the books.xml but only a single post and not all the posts.

Thank you for your help!
