SAP supplies standard service providers, which can be split into three groups:

Service Provider Parameters

Service providers must have certain parameters before they can be registered in the Framework. The parameters must be encoded when implementing a service provider. Each service provider has the parameters described below.

SP POID Parameters

"SP" stands for service provider, "POID" stands for persistent object ID. The SP POID parameters, the element type ID, and the RMS ID together identify an individual element. The SP POID parameters are automatically assigned values when an element is created.

Connection Parameters

The connection parameters determine which element types can be created. Before you can create an element type, the connection parameters of the service provider must have values. To create element types in Customizing, choose the following in the Implementation Guide (IMG): SAP Web Application Server ® Basis Services ® Records Management ® Maintain Registry.

To create element types, you need to assign values to connection parameters. To do this, you need to know which values are possible for the connection parameters of each service provider. This background information is provided in the individual sections on each service provider.

Context Parameters

Context parameters enable transfer of information from one service provider to another. Not all service providers publish context parameters. Assignment of values is optional. Values are not assigned when you create the element type. This can be program-controlled, or you assign values in the Records Modeler when you create a record model.

In the Records Modeler, context parameters are automatically displayed for which you can enter values, if an element type that you have assigned to the model node belongs to a service provider that has published context parameters. The system automatically writes the context parameters in the attribute list for this model node. Context parameters that can have more than one value are listed ten times as a standard setting. For more information on the Records Modeler, see Editing Tool for Record Models: The Records Modeler.
