The suffix for the Response Out type is assigned according to present WSDL message-naming conventions, where requests are customarily not suffixed and responses are customarily suffixed with the literal Response.All QDoc names are written in mixed-case or camel-case notation for Java classes, in which the first letter of each token within a name is capitalized, while all other letters are lower-case.In the case of QAD Enterprise Applications, the maintain verb is used for all create-read-update-delete (CRUD) type QDocs with the detailed action (add, modify, delete, sync, get) expressed in the body of the QDoc.
