for consuming webservice you need to create proxy class and this class can be used for using webservice.

check this link [webservice|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/bf/d005244e9d1d4d92b2fe7935556b4c/frameset.htm]

you can also use wizardby following mehod after creating proxy class.

Right click on your webdynpro component Create->service Call

It will open a wizard and in the third step you can choose Webservice proxy as service type .

Web Dynpro ABAP doesn't really consume Web Services directly. It can only interact with Web Service Proxy Classes (and that process is really no different than calling any normal classs). There is a service wizard, but mostly it just helps with creating the context that matches the interface of the proxy method.

Here is a link to a video that shows the process of creating and configuring the proxy. It was developed on 7.1 but a lot of the functionality (like SOAMANAGER) has been backported to 7.0 in the later support packages:

If you have an older SP level, you would still use LPCONFIG instead of SOAMANAGER. Here is a blog that shows the process at this older level:
