  Error Message
  WS_TOOL150: Choose a WSDL document
  
  Cause
  This error occurs when you are working with SAP Web Services tools (such as the Web Service Navigator, SOAMANAGER, or the Web Service Configuration tools) and you attempt to perform an action that requires a WSDL (Web Services Description Language) document, but no WSDL document has been selected or provided.
  In other words, the system expects you to select or specify a WSDL file to proceed, but this step was missed or the WSDL document is not available in the context.
  Common scenarios include:
  
  Trying to generate or configure a web service without selecting the WSDL.
  Importing or consuming a web service where the WSDL file is not specified.
  Using tools like SOAMANAGER or WS Navigator and skipping the WSDL selection step.
  
  
  Solution
  To resolve the WS_TOOL150 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Select a WSDL Document:
  
  When prompted, make sure to select the appropriate WSDL document.
  If you are importing a web service, browse and upload the correct WSDL file.
  If you are generating a web service, ensure the WSDL is generated or available.
  
  
  
  Verify WSDL Availability:
  
  Check that the WSDL document exists and is accessible.
  If you are using a URL, verify that the URL is correct and reachable.
  If you are using a local file, ensure the file path is correct.
  
  
  
  Use Correct Tool Steps:
  
  Follow the correct sequence in the SAP Web Service tools.
  For example, in SOAMANAGER, when creating or configuring a service, you must first select or import the WSDL before proceeding.
  
  
  
  Check Authorization:
  
  Ensure you have the necessary authorizations to access or upload WSDL documents.
  
  
  
  Regenerate or Re-import WSDL:
  
  If the WSDL is corrupted or missing, regenerate it from the backend system or re-import it.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information
  
  WSDL (Web Services Description Language) is an XML-based language used to describe the functionality offered by a web service.
  SAP tools that deal with web services heavily rely on WSDL documents to understand the service interface, operations, and message formats.
  This error is a prompt to remind the user that the WSDL document is a mandatory input for the operation they are trying to perform.
  If you are unsure where to find the WSDL, you can:
  
  Generate it from the SAP backend system (e.g., via transaction SE80 or SOAMANAGER).
  Obtain it from the service provider if consuming an external web service.
