hi,

2.when we wil use

the scenario SOAP-TO-IDOC then use the webservice concept in XI.

3how to write the webservices.

Create the sender soap communcation channel in ID. Then create the webservice in ID.

Tools -> Define the webservice.

pass the sender servuce , outbound interface and namespace .

now it will generate the wsdl file copy into local drive test this wsdl file using xmspay.

Giri,

1.what is a webservice.

By using Web services, your application can publish its function or message to the rest of the world or consume service from throught out world

The Web Services platform is a simple, interoperable, messaging framework. It still misses many important features like security and routing. But, these pieces will come once SOAP becomes more advanced.

Hopefully, Web services can make it much easier for applications to communicate.

.

2.when we wil use

we use Websericves whenwe need to interact with others method or sericves orwehne want to pulish ourmethod or services globlaly

3how to write the webservices.

in xi we can generate webservices or r/3 can also generate webservices . in XI in Directory we haveoption to generate webserices WSDL file.

Hi Sesha,

<i>1.what is a webservice.</i> - Webservice means a function which you can call from outside via internet on web and get the data which the function has to perform......but you will not get access to the code of the function.......

<i>2.when we wil use</i> - suppose you are developing a web-portal for your client, then you will have to communicate with the third party webservice to get your req data in XI........

<i>3how to write the webservices</i> - well you can write a webservice application either in JAVA, .NET depending on in which prog language you are good.....

Thanks,

Hi Sesha,

see for using a web-service means your client must be contacting a third-party for some web-service......so when you will use XI......then you will use a SOAP adapter in ID to connect to the web-service of that third party.....then you will invoke that web-service in some scenario of yours......that webservice will give you the req data in XML format........which you will use in your scenario.......

Thanks,
