This guide describes in detail how an Application Program invokes the various SSA-NAME3 Service Group Services and what the required parameters are.

The ultimate goal of an SSA-NAME3 implementation is for application programs to be able to Call on its Services to build keys, effect searches and drive matching.

This manual describes in detail how an Application Program invokes the various SSA-NAME3 Services via the Callable Service Group. It describes the parameters required by these Services, what goes on within a Service, the information that is returned, and what the Application should then do with that information.
