Modify springframework.ws.WebServiceMessage xml before sending

Question

Valid SOAP request tested via SOAP UI:

getResponseObj method to send the message:

@Autowired
ClientConfig clientConfig;

@Autowired
Service service;
...
public ResponseObj getResponseObj() throws DatatypeConfigurationException {

        RequestObj request = service.buildRequest();
        WebServiceTemplate wst = clientConfig.webServiceTemplate();

        return (ResponseObj) wst.marshalSendAndReceive(request, new WebServiceMessageCallback() {

            @Override
            public void doWithMessage(WebServiceMessage message) throws IOException, TransformerException {
                SoapMessage soapMessage = ((SoapMessage) message);
                soapMessage.setSoapAction(soapActionHeader);

                soapMessage.writeTo(System.out); 
            }
        });
    }

WebServiceTemplate configuration looks like this:

@Configuration
public class ClientConfig {

    @Value("${ws.username}") private String username;
    @Value("${ws.password}") private String usernamePassword;
    @Value("${ws.uri}") private String endpointUri;
    @Value("${ws.contextPath}") private String cxtPath;

    @Bean
    Jaxb2Marshaller marshaller() {
        Jaxb2Marshaller marshaller = new Jaxb2Marshaller();
        marshaller.setContextPath(cxtPath); // package location where wsdl generated classes are
        return marshaller;
    }

    @Bean
    HttpClient httpClient() {

        List headers = new ArrayList<>();
        String userAndPassword = username + ":" + usernamePassword;
        BasicHeader authHeader = new BasicHeader("Authorization", "Basic " + new String(Base64.encode(userAndPassword.getBytes())));
        headers.add(authHeader);
        RequestDefaultHeaders reqHeader = new RequestDefaultHeaders(headers);

        return HttpClients.custom()
                .addInterceptorFirst(new HttpComponentsMessageSender.RemoveSoapHeadersInterceptor())
                .addInterceptorLast(reqHeader).build();
    }

    @Bean
    HttpComponentsMessageSender defaultMyMessageSender() {
        return new HttpComponentsMessageSender(httpClient());
    }

    @Bean
    public WebServiceTemplate webServiceTemplate() {

        WebServiceTemplate wsTemplate = new WebServiceTemplate();
        wsTemplate.setDefaultUri(endpointUri);
        wsTemplate.setMarshaller(marshaller());
        wsTemplate.setMessageSender(defaultMyMessageSender());

        return wsTemplate;
    }

}

Service has buildRequest method where I set the values and return RequestObj

The writeTo prints wrong SoapMessage, the message is:

 // here missing 3 namespaces
    
     // wrong body tag name
         // wrong tag name (ns2)
            A

            B

            
                C
            

            
                D
            

            
                 // missing E value
            

            
                 // missing F value

For missing envelope namespaces I've added the following to doWithMessage:

...
SoapEnvelope envelope = soapMessage.getEnvelope();
envelope.addNamespaceDeclaration(nXsi, nXsiUri);
envelope.addNamespaceDeclaration(nNs0, nNs0Uri);
envelope.addNamespaceDeclaration(nNs1, nNs1Uri);
/*
Results:

*/
...

My question is how I could change:

the body SOAP-ENV:Body to ns0:Body?
the prefix ns2 from Body element tags to ns1?

I'm using org.springframework.ws.WebServiceMessage and convering to org.springframework.ws.soap.SoapMessage.

I know the SOAPMessage API allows methods to setPrefix to change Body element tag prefixes and Body prefix too. But I need to use the org.springframework.ws.soap.SoapMessage.

My idea was to convert message.getPayloadSource() to Document and then Document convert it to InputStream to manually correct the XML and change it back to org.springframework.ws.soap.SoapMessage object to be able to send valid request. But I'm sure it's overkill...

To get back to main question - how can I modify the SoapMessage (content) to be valid to be sent?

All ideas are welcome

Update #1

When sending request (with and without fixing envelope headers it doesn't matter):

The E and F values are the XMLGregorianCalendar type dates and I'm using the 2021-01-05 formatted dates for it.

From wsdl file I see that e_value specified like this:

So my guess the default dateTime formatter invokes this error?

Modify springframework.ws.WebServiceMessage xml before sending
