hi, is there an example where webservice authentication (username and password) is used in PowerBuilder? (SOAP) (Pb12 preemptive authentication)

PowerBuilder 12 is EOL and it doesn't even support TLS 1.2 security. So using PowerBuilder 12 is not secure, and if the Web service is publicly exposed most likely TLS 1.2 will be required to successfully connect.

Here is an article about calling SOAP Web services with PowerBuilder 2019 R2 using the new HTTPClient and TLS 1.2 security: https://community.appeon.com/index.php/articles-blogs/tutorials-articles/2-powerbuilder/236-call-soap-web-services-using-httpclient-object

Here is an article how to add basic authentication (i.e. username/password): https://community.appeon.com/index.php/articles-blogs/tutorials-articles/2-powerbuilder/296-how-to-use-httpclient-or-restclient-to-call-an-api-with-basic-authentication

By the way, in the next version of PowerBuilder the HTTPClient will support TLS 1.3.
