You have to read the requirements from this other business in particular the reply message. Will they send it to you and you have to receive, catch it at any time? Or is it an automatic return from the soap message you initially send?
I have done a few service apps and they are a lot of work as they start to grow in capability. Heads up on the communication with their service. In some cases after you pass security checks they will send you an empty document, xml object in reality that is schema. You have to put in the correct settings and pass it back for them to get to the step you want to be at, submission of your soap message. I had to interact with local county service for court data. After security they would send a what type of data are you interested in form. My situation was always pulling data for local consumption instead of uploading data. You may have it a lot easier.
