Consuming a Web Service 

Use

To consume a Web service, you can create a proxy for the Web service in the ABAP Workbench using a WSDL document as a basis. This can be done with just a few mouse clicks.

The role of the Web service client developer is provided for binding Web services.

The Web service client developer consumes the Web services in existing applications. He or she knows the specific requirements for the Web service and creates the client proxy. He or she then programs the client application.

Prerequisites

You have configured the Web service runtime (for more information, refer to Configuring the Web Service Runtime).

Procedure

...

       1.      Call the Object Navigator (SE80) and create the proxy object (refer also to: Generating a Proxy).

       2.      Create a logical port to define the runtime features of the Web service client proxy (refer also to Configuring a Consumer-Proxy).

       3.      Program your application (refer also to Programming with Client and Server Proxies).
