Thanx for your help, Tony! :-) I'm new to Cocoon and especially new to 2.1.1 and the flowscript concept. Now I realized that I can use any Java packages within a flowscript. So I decided to do it with java.
Maybe someone have the same question so here is what I did: To generate the java classes to call the web service I use Axis wsdl2java, copy them into the WEB-INF/lib directory and load them into my flowscript using importPackage(java.util); importPackage(Packages.com.rheinland.online.tarifierung.binding); (I also need java.util cause the response is a hash map). I add the following pipeline into my sitemap <map:match pattern="soap"> <map:call function="soapCall"/> </map:match> and the the following flowscript function into my script function soapCall() { var service = new KfzTarifierungWsServiceLocator(); cocoon.log.debug(service.getKfzTarifierungWsAddress()); var port = service.getKfzTarifierungWs(); var hm = port.call("5791", "4711", "User", "Password", "2004-01-01", 1, "112", 1, 87, "kw", "0005", "644", "2000-10-19", 1, 0, "2001-04-11", "1440", 28500, -1, -1, 10, 51, 56, "OH022", 0, 0, 33, 50, "OV022", 0, 3, "1944-11-02", 1, "1973-05-24", 20, 3, 2, 3, -1, -1, -1, 3, -1, -1); cocoon.log.debug(hm); ... ... cocoon.sendPageAndWait("views/..."); ... ... } and it works fine. This way to do a rpc call to a web service is much more efficient than using the soap logicsheet within xsp pages. Latter I did before using Cocoon 2.0.4.

Maybe there are useful descriptions somewhere > in the web? Markus, Have a look at the recent thread entitled, "Flow and Web Services" [1] on the mailing list archive for cocoon-dev. That should point you in the right direction.
