consuming web service

[Former Member]

Hi All,

can u please help me with the scenario from the consumer side , once the web service is ready to be consumed.

Example : if we want to use a service 'CreatePurchaseOrder' in a composite application (consumer side) what are the steps we follow to use that service.

Hi Praveena,

Counsuming of webservice means... you are using the webservice in your scenario which is already created..The webservice might be developed either java,.net anything.

Let take an example File to Soap..Here in this scenarion i am using the webservice as inbound interface..I will take the wsdl file of the webservice from the external system and I make it in the my local desktop and i same imported in to IR as external definition.
