A while back, I created a few tutorials for doing some very basic POI operations that may be helpful to get started:
Create an Excel File using Java and POI
Read Contents of an Excel File using Java and POI
Set Background Color and Add Border to a Cell in an Excel File Using Java and POI

It depends on what you aim to do with POI. Do you want to generate files only for Excel? Other formats too?
There is plenty of docs and tutorials on the official website and on the web
