I guess that my questions are: 1). Is the remote URL exposed as a Web Service that you can consume? - Then YES definately - do a "Set Fields" to push the data to the remote host. 2) If the remote URL is not exposed as a Web Service - you can manually construct a WSDL to load in and perform #1 - although I do not prefer this method 3). If the remote URL is not a exposed Web Service - can it be created as one?
If not - then you are more than likely stuck with the Run Process.
