If you need to map entire or some portion of xml source structure to a single field element in target , we use this option. This is a new feature available since 7.1.

Hi,

The Return as XML will provide the entire XML tag name in the payload. Usually this will be used in case of barcode printing. In this barcode printing if you are sending sending data from SAP to printer for printing the barcode lables. In this case we can use this return as XML oprion.
