Corticon Studio can produce your preferred type of service contract for the project's Vocabulary or a Ruleflow that uses the Vocabulary. The output files are generated to the Studio's [WORK_DIR]\Reports directory.

When you produce WSDL using this option, the WSDL is not included in the Decision Service package unless you set properties as described in the following note. The WSDL and report that you produce can be passed to system integrators as descriptive notes about the Decision Service.

Note: The default process of Decision Service compilation does not include WSDL and its report in the EDS file. The selections in the Studio export Service contracts and reports that can be passed to system integrators as a .wsdl or .xsd text and a report .html file. If you want WSDL or reports in the Decision Service package, add the following lines to the brms.properties file where Corticon will do the compilation: 
com.corticon.server.compile.add.wsdl=true
com.corticon.server.compile.add.report=true.
