Prerequisite	Cross Reference
For the Service service type, explicit service definitions must exist before you can assign these related content services to a component, page field, or pivot grid as related content or as related actions.	See Creating and Managing Related Content Service Definitions.
For the Content Reference, Grouplet, and Pagelet service types, which are accessed as anonymous services, an explicit service definition is not required. However, in certain circumstances, you might require an explicit service definition.	See Explicit Definition Versus Anonymous Services.
For pagelets that require parameters, you must enter the RCF_SERVICE_PARAMETER attribute.	See Understanding Service URL Parameters.
