Comsume Web Service via ABAP SAP 4.7

166 Views

Hello Experts

We wanted use an ABAP program to call a web service. We were only given the target WSDL file. Not sure what to do with this and what information can we get from this.

As I checked, the format is different from the conventional web service I found in the blogs. Usually the WSDL URL is format below.

http://www.webservicex.net/airport.asmx?wsdl

and you can see and test the services from this URL http://www.webservicex.net/airport.asmx

But in our case, this the WSDL URL is below.

http://<host>/dd10/services/shipRSS?wsdl

and we cannot see and test service from http://<host>/dd10/services/shipRSS this is what we are getting.

"shipRSS

Hi there, this is an AXIS service!

Perhaps there will be a form for invoking the service here..."

Having this kind of WSDL, can we still create an ABAP program that can consume this? Is there difference in the programming and parameters. Currently we are using the program template from this blog /people/durairaj.athavanraja/blog/2004/09/20/consuming-web-service-from-abap as we are only running on SAP 4.7 but it seems not to be working. Any thoughts?

Thank you very much!
