Generally in order to call a webservice from anyother system you need to import the WSDL provided by the system that generated the webservice

so you need to import the same in PI also ...

only thing may be if it is external WS then need to check the ports opened in your org for calling the same which needs to be checked with the netwrok team..

Hi,

Please elaborate on your requirement as you have mentioned that it is not a standard webservice requirement.

If you need to call a third party webservice then following are the steps to be performed:

a) Get the external webservice wsdl, import it in IR.

b) Create a inbound service interface and select the message type from the imported wsdl.

c) Use the endpoint details from the wsdl and configure accordingly in the receiver type soap channel.
