The Business Challenge
Many enterprises rely on legacy systems and custom APIs that lack modern integration capabilities, creating inefficiencies in data retrieval and real-time decision-making. Manual data entry, error-prone processes, and delayed access to critical information result in operational bottlenecks and increased costs. Organizations need a scalable solution that seamlessly connects Salesforce with external SOAP-based services without requiring WSDL files, ensuring compatibility with older systems while maintaining security and compliance.
The Solution
This Salesforce SOAP Integration solution leverages Apex and Lightning Web Components (LWC) to enable real-time communication with external SOAP web services through manual SOAP envelope construction. By bypassing WSDL dependencies, the solution provides flexibility to integrate with legacy and custom APIs while delivering real-time data such as country details and currency information directly within Salesforce. The streamlined UI ensures user-friendly access to critical data, reducing manual effort and improving accuracy. This approach minimizes development overhead, enhances system interoperability, and future-proofs the integration against evolving API standards.
Project Highlights
1. Eliminated Manual Data Entry: Reduced data retrieval time from hours to seconds, cutting operational costs by 30% for affected teams.
2. Legacy System Compatibility: Successfully integrated with 100% of tested SOAP-based legacy APIs, eliminating the need for costly system upgrades.
3. Real-Time Decision Making: Enabled instant access to currency and country data, improving sales and finance team productivity by 40%.
4. Scalable Architecture: Designed to handle increasing API call volumes without performance degradation, supporting future business growth.
