WSDL Port Type Operation
A Port Type Operation identifies an exchange of Messages (data input to and output from the interface as an operation). The Port Type Operation can also identify Messages acting as Fault indicators.
In Enterprise Architect, a WSDL PortType Operation is represented by a UML Operation of the WSDL PortType Interface. You can create a PortType Operation by dragging the PortType Operation icon from the WSDL Toolbox and dropping it onto a «WSDLportType» stereotyped Interface.
Toolbox Icon
Access Drag icon onto «WSDLportType» stereotyped element, or
Project Browser | Double-click on PortType operation, or
Diagram | Highlight PortType element | Highlight PortType operation | double-click on operation

Notes
| · | WSDL PortType Operations can only be contained by WSDL PortTypes |
| · | The name provided for an Input, Output or Fault Message in a PortType Operation must be unique amongst the Input, Output and Fault Messages, respectively, across the WSDL PortType |
| · | In the UML operation Properties dialog, the Messages identified as Input, Output and Fault can be examined as the parameters of the operation |
