Handling SOAP Faults in Siebel CRM
The fault schemas described in the WSDL are accepted and modeled in Siebel CRM as integration objects. This is similar to how other input and output messages are modeled as strings (simple type) or integration objects (complex type). These named faults are available as output parameters.
Having named faults available as output parameters is useful in SOA environments. For example, Business Process Execution Language (BPEL) can only send named faults.
