Which style of WSDL should I use?
Patterns and Strategies for Building Document-Based Web Services
RPC is considered procedural and more tightly coupled compared to document-based. When you submit a document to a document-based web service there is no 'web method' - the web service knows what to do with the document 1) based on its type and 2) possibly based on its contents.

RPC style web service uses the names of the method and its parameters to generate XML structures that represent a method’s call stack. While document style indicates that the SOAP body contains a XML document which can be validated against pre-defined XML schema document.
