I would also advise a search of this forum for some potentially useful discussions on this; the developerworks article on the subject is very much worth a read!

| You could also build the logic into the message flow. When the request fails, capture the soap request xml and sleep for specific time and then rewire back to the soaprequest node. You can also maintain how many time you want to retry. Hope this helps. |

You need to be cautious doing this; you need to be aware of what will stop processing while the sleep is in progress.

.... and be aware that looping at the flow level may cause issues (and make sure you dont write an infinite loop!) |
