Can we cal non sap third party system in webservice

[Former Member]

we had a RFC function module for credit card validation

I had created a service provider and service consumer .

This web service sends information to another system and gets answer from third party system.can you please let me know which wsdl do I need to use in the configuration of service consumer ?

1) third party wsdl

or

2) wsdl obtained for the rfc in soamanager

then how will the web service work? If am calling this function module for which we created web service inside another program ? will it work?

if so how?

Do we need to use third party URL while consuming ?

If we use then how can it work for the function module in a method?

Pls help me.

Thanks in advance,

Hi Gowthami,

Please clarify you exact requirement.

What role does the service provider play in your scenario?

For the service consumer:

- You need to create a Consumer Proxy in SAP and a corresponding logical port for the proxy (using the 3rd party WSDL for both the proxy creation and logical port configuration)

Are you referring to the service provider you created here?

Please clarify what the service consumer role is and what should the service provider role be for a better understanding.

Hi

I am not sure if I understand you requirement correctly :

1. Yes SAP can consume third party Web services ( When you import third party WSDL into SAP we just need consider certain limitation).

2. In your case you need to configure SAP Consumer proxy(Consuming third party service) . (Logical Port or PI)

Thank you
