Calling a SOAP web service from SAP Business Workflow

[Dart, Jocelyn]

If you want SOAP you really need to look at using XI to send the message
and communicating between workflow and XI.

Subject: Calling a SOAP web service from SAP Business Workflow

Hi Guys,

Is it possible to call a SOAP web service from SAP Business Workflow in 
release 700?  Note  946793 says that SOAP bindings are unsupported even
in 
the latest support package 9 in transaction WFWS so I am assuming that
they 
are unsupported unless you can define the web service directly in
WF_EXTSRV. 
  Has anyone come up with any workarounds if they are unsupported other
than 
developing the solution from scratch?  If I need to I will create a
client 
proxy using the WSDL file and crete a method to execute the client proxy
but 
this means I am not making use of any of the standard functionality.
