SOAP Call from SAP Web AS ERP2004

[Former Member]

Hi

Is it possible to make a soap call to an external non-SAP System from SAP ERP2004 using ABAP programs without using any tools like XI or Business Connector.

If yes do you have any examples for that?

Hi, Girish!

You can use the Web Service Toolset available with NW04. For consuming a Web Service, create a Client Proxy based on any WSDL from a UDDI or other URL.

You' ll find the procedure described in <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/bf/d005244e9d1d4d92b2fe7935556b4c/content.htm">Consuming a Web Service</a>.

If you' ve any further questions, please don' t hesitate to ask.

Regards,

Thomas

Hi

I consumed a soap call via se80 and generated a client proxy.

Created the logical port .

Now while testing via standard single test. I am getting the following error.
