Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP): Easy access to Webservices!

All-in Logistics facilitates open interaction with customers and enables them to send queries to All-in Logistics via Internet directly from their own ERP environment. Subsequently, the requested information is 'transferred' to their system(s). 

A web service is a collection of protocols and standards used for exchanging data between applications or systems. Software applications written in various programming languages and running on various platforms can use web services to exchange data over computer networks like the Internet in a manner similar to inter-process communication on a single computer.

SOAP is a collection of agreements translated into an XML schema.

A SOAP supported message makes it easy  to call upon Webservices and to use their functions; independent of the technical implementation of these services, the operating system or platform on which they are running. A SOAP message is a kind of envelope with a standard defined XML structure.
