Abstract  Abstract

According to the inventive method for the administration of supplementary services (SS), a subscriber self-input (SCI) is initiated in a communications terminal (MS ) by the subscriber for the supplementary service concerned. Said subscriber self-input (SCI) causes at least one structured container message (USSD-M) to be produced by the communications terminal (MS). Said container message is then sent to a memory unit (HLR) of the communications network (KN). Once it has been received by the memory unit (HLR) the container message (USSD-M) is transmitted further via an interface (SH-IF) which links the memory unit (HLR) to the service control point (SCP). The interface implemented between the memory unit and the service control point enables the container message to reach the service control unit by means of the subscriber self-input (SCI) for the additional service, for service administration.
