Hi Maxim
For concurrency reasons you need to do the following:

Hello Adam, and thank you for your reply.As per your recommendations I retrieved a complete copy of the remoteRequirement by using the Requirement_Retrieve command. I then parsed the returned XML to get the desired single requirement element, modified it and tried to update it on the server using Requirement_Update.It worked, but only after I adapted the following:
The XML namespace (xmlns) of the returned requirement object is set to a="http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/Inflectra.SpiraTest.Web.Services.v4_0.DataObjects". For some reasons, I needed to set it instead to "https://www.inflectra.com/SpiraTest/Services/v4.0/" for the server to accept it (else I would get "The object reference is not set to an instance of an object").
The element node's name for the requirement object was "RemoteRequirement". However I would also get "The object reference is not set to an instance of an object" before I changed the element node's name to "remoteRequirement".
Here is an excerpt of the original SOAP response containing the requirement of interest, as returned by the server. Notice the namespace of the RemoteRequirement node and also the capitalized R in its name.

After the changes discussed above, the functional Requirement_Update SOAP message looks like this:
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:a="http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/Inflectra.SpiraTest.Web.Services.v4_0.DataObjects" xmlns:api="https://www.inflectra.com/SpiraTest/Services/v4.0/"> <soap:Body> <api:Requirement_Update> <api:remoteRequirement> <a:ArtifactTypeId>1</a:ArtifactTypeId> <a:ConcurrencyDate>2014-04-22T19:01:22.323</a:ConcurrencyDate> <a:CustomProperties> [ . . . ]

<soap:Body>
<api:Requirement_Update>
<api:remoteRequirement>
<a:ConcurrencyDate>2014-04-22T19:01:22.323</a:ConcurrencyDate>
Did I just find some issues in the SOAP-WSDL message returned by the SpiraTeam server or I am doing something wrong?
