Hi,
You can create a Page with source table as the table that you want data from.
Add Fields to the page that you need. If require add filters in the page properties.
Once all done. Create a Webservice for the page created.
Once the web service is created and published, you can use the SOAP URL for getting the data in XML Format.
** Remember use SOAP URL not the ODATA URL for getting data in XML Format.
Let us know if any issues.

Hi Sowkarthika,
I have already tried what you have suggested.
But how can I get access to the schema of the NAV database which i can use as XML Mapping so that i can create a .xml document from Excel.
Can you provide more details on your requirement ?
Guess this is what you are looking for : You can create an XML port and add tables & fields required. Then you can run the XML port and export it. You will get the format of XML Mapping.
