Service access (UPDM - DoDAF aliases)
Creation
To create a Service Access:
• From an Architectural Description or Service Description: right-click the Architectural Description or Service Description, point to New, point to DoDAF, point to Service, and then click Service Access.
• From an SV-1 Systems Interface Definition, SV-4 Systems Functionality Hierarchy, SV-5 Function to Operational Activity/Service Function Definition, or SV-9 Systems Technology and Skills Forecast Definition: click the Service Access button, and then click in free space on the diagram.
Service Access button, and then click in free space on the diagram.Appearance
When shown on an SV-1 Systems Interface Definition, SV-4 Systems Functionality Hierarchy, SV-5 Function to Operational Activity/Service Function Definition, or SV-9 Systems Technology and Skills Forecast Definition, a Service Access appears as follows:
When shown on an SV-1 Systems Interaction Specification or SV-2 Systems Resource Flow Description, a Service Access appears as follows:
Relationships
The following relationships are of importance to a Service Access:
• UML Generalizations define Service Access inheritance (SV-1 Systems Interface Definition).
• Forecast relationships link a Service Access to forecasted future Service Access elements.
• Implements relationships link a Service Access to the Performer (Operational) elements it implements.
• Activity Performed by Performer relationships to link a Service Access to the Activity (System) elements that can be performed by the Service Access.
• Used as a type for Concept Role, Known Resource, Performer Port, System Port, Resource Role and Service Level Value Set elements.
• Used as a conveyed classifier for Operational Exchange elements.
The following sections provide information about how a Service Access is used in the model.
