APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• In Rpc/Literal style WSDL, the String type is defined as a
  top-level input parameter type. When you use web service
  integration to integrate with such an external web service, the
  parameter value might be truncated incorrectly.
  
  For example, an output simple value such as 010203151218328 is
  truncated to 10203151218328 in the output soap message:
  
  <soapenv:Envelope
  xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
  xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"><soapenv:B
  ody><ns0:ObterAnalistaSinistro xmlns:ns0="http://xxx"
  xmlns:axis2ns4="http://xxx"><pSinistro>10203151218328</pSinistro
  ></ns0:ObterAnalistaSinistro></soapenv:Body></soapenv:Envelope>
