Abstract
Automatic provision or registration of an enhanced-service that has not yet been provisioned for that service is detected and processed within a mobile system. Upon introduction into a mobile communication system, the mobile unit is detected as enhanced-service capable and non-provisioned. A configuration message including information is transmitted to the mobile unit. This information enables the mobile unit to manage the enhanced service. In addition, a detection signal, including a service agreement identifier associated with the mobile unit is transmitted to an enhanced-service center comprising an enhanced-service database or register. The center registers the mobile unit as enhanced-service capable by updating the database based on the received service agreement identifier.
