1. A method for capturing and converting legacy applications into a Business Process Execution Language (BPEL) model supporting a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), the method comprising: identifying a business entry type, a name, and a plurality of variables of the legacy applications; defining a package and a plurality of file names used by the legacy applications; flagging a starting panel to enter into the BPEL model; starting a recorder for recording the legacy applications; entering data on a screen of a data processing device running the legacy applications; mapping the plurality of variables of the legacy applications to a plurality of fields and to a plurality of sub-fields of the BPEL model; identifying and highlighting the plurality of fields and the plurality of sub-fields; identifying one or more fields out of the plurality of fields to differentiate a request from a plurality of requests; identifying and generating partner links via a submit button located on the screen of the data processing device; identifying additional input variables of the legacy applications; mapping the additional input variables of the legacy applications to arbitrary variables; highlighting one or more of the plurality of fields that indicate one or more error conditions; generating a fault handler for each of the one or more error conditions; repeating the previous steps until an end result is generated; ending the recorder; choosing one or more variables to be returned as a result of processing the legacy applications; flagging the end result; saving the end result; generating an ear (Enterprise Archive) file that packages business process resource files; generating resource files describing a sequence of invokes that represent the legacy applications as a first set of SOA services having a plurality of variables; and generating a second set of SOA services associated with assigns for mapping the plurality of variables of the first set of SOA services to the second set of SOA services.
