Matthieu, Thank you for the information about correlation. However, we are currently trying to figure out how the BPEL interacts with jax-ws web service asynchronously, and how to make it happen. Due to the nature of our project, we have to have BPEL call jax-ws web service asynchronously, would you help us on that issue?
