You can catalog SOAP Web Services from a WSDL (Web Services Description Language)
definition and use them in your BPM project. Use Web Service components to
integrate with external systems using the SOAP standard.
When you catalog a SOAP service you get a BPM component which provides one method
for each SOAP operation exposed by the service. If the web service defines complex
data types, additional BPM components are generated to represent them.
