Request receptions used to receive execution requests from service requesters include standard reception and user-defined reception.

Standard reception is a fixed interface that receives execution requests for service components from service requesters. User-defined reception is the interface that allows users to define any format according to execution requests for service components from service requesters.

To use standard reception, you must create a service requester according to the format of each standard reception. Therefore, if you re-use an existing service requester that does not match the interface format of standard reception, you need to re-create a service requester or make major modifications.

In such cases, you can create a user-defined reception that enables reception of execution requests from existing service requesters. The following figure shows how to create a user-defined reception.

The service platform provides a wizard for effectively creating user-defined receptions.
