<context><p>The Web Service wizard assists you in creating a new Web service
from a WSDL file. You must first create or import a WSDL file. A WSDL file
can be created using the WSDL editor. This is described in: <xref href="../tasks/tcrtwsdl.dita"
scope="peer">Creating a new WSDL file</xref>. To import a WSDL file follow
the instructions below.</p><p> <uicontrol>Prerequisite:</uicontrol> Create
a project. It is recommend that you create a Web project so that the WSDL
can be easily used to generate additional artifacts and deployed.</p><p>For
more information on creating a Web project, refer to the Web application development
documentation.</p><p>To import a WSDL file to your Web project, complete the
following steps:</p></context>
