Before Using SendSOAPRequest

You must complete a series of tasks before using SendSOAPRequest.

1. Configure the SOAP Outbound service.

   The business process must complete the following tasks:
   1. Assign a value to SOAPRequestURL. The value is the URL to which Sterling B2B Integrator should post the SOAP request.
   2. Perform an operation with InvokeBusinessProcessService as the participant, assigning SendSOAPRequest to the WDF_NAME parameter.
3. Depending on your needs, you may need to assign values to other parameters before using the SendSOAPRequest business process.
