You can plot relationships between client and supplier services in the SV-3 Service-to-Service matrix.
When you open the matrix, it reflects all relationships between services on currently saved diagrams, both services connected by service data flow lines on SV-4b Service Data Flow diagrams, and services connected by service interface lines on SV-1 Systems Interface diagrams.
Procedure
1 Click View > Matrix Browser, and then select the Service-to-Service matrix.
The matrix presents services plotted against services; the column represents client services, and that the rows represent supplier services.
2 If you draw new service data flow lines between services on SV-4b Services Data Flow diagrams while the matrix is open, you can refresh the matrix to reflect these relationships by completing the following steps:
▪Save the SV-4b Services Data Flow diagram that contains the new service data flow relationships. When you do this, the Client Services and Supplier Services properties of each service definition represented on the diagram is updated.
▪Save the SV-1 Systems Interface diagram that contains the new service interface relationships. When you do this, the Client Services and Supplier Services properties of each Service definition represented on the diagram is updated.
▪With the matrix in focus, click Matrix > Reload.
