#calling method createRecipient which takes 2 parameterss:
#1. Complex type : recipient
#2. Complex type : authentication

my $response=$soap->createRecipient( { # MyTypes::createRecipient
    recipient =>  { # MyTypes::Recipient
      address =>  "test701\@test.com", # string
      externalID =>  "test701\@test.com", # string
      sourceDescription =>  "testing perl", # string
      demographics =>  { # MyTypes::StringCollection
        },
    },
  },,
 { # MyTypes::authentication
   username=>'testuser' , password=>'pass'
  },,
 );

#you can find example code of calling every function in your "MyInterfaces\SoapImplService\SoapPort.pm" file.
