| Definition | The type of the service that can be used to access the documents. |
| Control | 1..1 |

| Definition | A list of named parameters that is used in the service call. |
| Control | 0..* |
| Comments | The interpretation of the parameters, and how to convert them into a proper service call, is dependent on the type of the service, and needs to be specified in an implementation guide somewhere. |

If one or more event codes are included, they shall not conflict with the values inherent in the class or type elements as such a conflict would create an ambiguous situation. |
