BJ - are you doing this in Java? I am trying to find a way to use simple methods to read in order data from the remote system and create a shopping cart. All the services available for creating a shopping cart seem to depend on a quote or order already existing in the system. I suppose I could create the order and then create a cart from the order so I can use the services available to the shopping cart.
I've been using the "storeOrder" service and almost got it done that way. But I just realized there is not a list in this service for orderItemShipGroupAssoc.
