SOAP client method with parameter returns null eventhough there is data

The SOAP server I call has two functions

GetUserInfo and GetAllUserInfo

the client calls the second function perfectly and displays all users. But the first function returns a null. I know it has something to do with the parameters, so I have tried a number of possible ways, still nothing. Here is the xml of soap and the function I used.

1.GetUserInfo

Request Xml:

<GetUserInfo>
 <ArgComKey xsi:type="xsd:integer”>ComKey</ArgComKey>
    <Arg>
      <PIN xsi:type="xsd:integer”>Job Number</PIN>
    </Arg>
</GetUserInfo>

Response Xml:

<GetUserInfoResponse>
  <Row>
   <PIN>XXXXX</PIN>
   <Name>XXXX</Name>
   <Password>XXX</Password>

2.GetAllUserInfo *

Request Xml:

<GetAllUserInfo>
   <ArgComKey xsi:type="xsd:integer”>ComKey</ArgComKey>
</GetAllUserInfo>

Response Xml:

<GetAllUserInfoResponse>
  <Row>
    <PIN>XXXXX</PIN>
    <Name>XXXX</Name>
    <Password>XXX</Password>
    < Group>X</ Group>

And here is the code I wrote for the client I use to get a specific user and all users.

try {
        $opts = array('location' => 'http://192.168.0.201/iWsService',
                       'uri'      => 'iWsService');
        $client = new \SOAPClient(null, $opts);
        $attendance = $client->__soapCall('GetUserInfo', array('PIN'=> 2));
        var_dump($attendance);
    } catch (SOAPFault $exception) {
        print $exception;
    }

When I called GetAllUserInfo with a parameter of empty array() it returns all the users. Including a user with PIN = 2. But the GetUserInfo method returns null. Am I missing something when I called the GetUserInfo method?

In order to make the correct SOAP call for GetUserInfo, you will need to know 2 parameters: the ComKey and the PIN. In my SOAP call below, I assume that the ComKey is 12345, but you will have to replace this value with something meaningful. Try using the following code:

try {
    $opts = array('location' => 'http://192.168.0.201/iWsService',
                  'uri'      => 'iWsService');
    $client = new \SOAPClient(null, $opts);
    $attendance = $client->__soapCall('GetUserInfo', array('ArgComKey'=>12345,
                                                           'Arg' => array('PIN' => 2)));
    var_dump($attendance);
} catch (SOAPFault $exception) {
    print $exception;
}

Here I am trying to match the XML format for the GetUserInfo request as closely as possible.
