Good luck.

Thanks Jason. But, My error is kind of unique. Usually it happens with strings in the end. For me its displaying as Schema. I'm not sure how to resolve. I dont see this problem occurring for anybody else so far.

Can you share your XML?

Hello Jason, 


Here is the part of the XML. I think this should be sufficient since i have just removed the elments, company name etc.

Kindly let me know where could be the issue. I appreciate your help. Thank you!

Digging in to it, but one thing I noticed is that you are using SOAP 1.2, I think the latest Salesforce supports is 1.1.
See here: http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/api/Content/sforce_api_quickstart_intro.htm

How did you know that its a SOAP 1.2? 
Jason Curtis NBSFDGJason Curtis NBSFDG
xmlns:soap12="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap12/"

Did that work?

Shri RajShri Raj

Ohh! So basicially Soap12 means its a 1.2 version. I get it. 

Now, How to overcome this problem to integrate both the systems? Isint there a possiblitiy at all Jason?

Hello Jason, 

I appreciate your time so far in helping me to find a solution. I have searched a lot on Google as well to convert a 1.2 WSDL version to 1.1. There isint a specific and best way of doing it since every WSDL is differnt in its own way based on the elements and tags included. if some thing else changes in the.client side schema i felt its not a best practice to clean up the WSDL everytime and parse it inside Salesforce. I'm looking into other ways of integrating now. Like Informatica, or Command Line batch, REST, or through any other middleware system.
