XML-RPC provides a straightforward XML-based mechanism for providing web-based services such as publishing information. Any OFBiz Service may act as an XML-RPC web service provider simply by setting the Service's export
configuration setting to true
and using the OFBiz XML-RPC event handler (org.ofbiz.webapp.event.XmlRpcEventHandler) wrapper to receive XML-RPC requests and route them to the proper OFBiz Service for handling.

file or your local web application's controller.xml
file, add it to either file):
