Correct, Ole. It is indeed a good idea to store data like hard coded test-card values in some other step so that it is accessible throughout the test case.

Very Cool!

To make the frequentBuyerCard value dynamic you could even replace it with a standard soapUI property-expansion, maybe referring to a datasource, testcase or project level property.. ie something like

${DataSource#buyerCard}

(this will be expanded before running the XQuery expression)
