I've read many pages on Service vs Manager and checked the code but I'm not sure I get the difference between the Service and the Manage in ABP.
Here is my specific case: I have a "Function" object. A Function can have a list of Parameters.
When I insert a function in the database, I also insert its parameters at the same time.
How should that be handled? I already have a FunctionAppService that creates the function in the database. Now, how about the parameters. Should they be handled via their repository in the CreateOrEdit() method in the FunctionAppService ? Should I create a ParameterAppService even if entering only parameters doesn't make any sense because it is always linked to a function ?
Should the "Manager" play a role here ? I doubt it because the Manager cannot call the AppService because of the way the projects are linked (and we want to avoid circular reference).
I'm confused with the structure. I need some guidance!

Hi,
Manager's are considered as Domain Services, you can read about it here <a class="postlink" href="http://aspnetboilerplate.com/Pages/Documents/Domain-Services">http://aspnetboilerplate.com/Pages/Docu ... n-Services</a>.
In order to understand difference, I suggest you to read this document as well if you have time <a class="postlink" href="http://aspnetboilerplate.com/Pages/Documents/Application-Services">http://aspnetboilerplate.com/Pages/Docu ... n-Services</a>.
In your case, it seems like Parameter entity is only meaningful with a Fucntion and Function is your aggregate root. So, you can save parameters with function in your FunctionAppService, you dont't need to create a second AppService for parameter.

Thank you for the links to the documentation.
Your suggestion seems to make sense and this is what I'll do. :D
