The Web Service Consumer transformation receives a product line, date, and a sequence number as input. The transformation consumes the Get_Order_Info web service operation to retrieve the order information.
When you create the Web Service Consumer transformation, choose a WSDL data object that describes the request and response web service messages. A web service message contains hierarchical groups of XML elements. An element can contain other elements. Some elements occur multiple times. Create the transformation from the Order_Info WSDL object in the repository.
Configure the transformation input ports and map the ports to the operation input hierarchy. Map nodes from the operation output hierarchy to the output ports. Define the web services connection and run-time properties.
