The present invention offers a solution for service provisioning that is generic and fits any domain, whether telecom, internet, or any service-related domain. This solution can be used in any scenario wherein a management entity is provisioning a given service in a managed entity, allowing potential users of a service to be subscribed to, to provide user preferences or settings for, and to be withdrawn from said service. <??>Such solution is achieved within the present invention thanks to a management system and method supporting a Subscription Management Generic Interface (SuM-GI) that is intended for enabling the exchange of information related to provisioning activities between a Provisioning Node and a number of Provisioned Nodes. This Subscription Management Generic Interface (SuM-GI) comprising a SuM-GI Data model and SuM-GI Operations, the latter intended to act on object classes in said SuM-GI Data Model. The SuM-GI Data Model is based on the IRPs (Integration Reference Points) standardized by 3GPP for UMTS. <IMAGE>
