The very very very short answer to this is "it depends".  Mostly, it
depends on how you created the service program.  If you created the
service program with "export(*all)", then you are about to experience
something that everyone using service programs learns: this is not the
best way to maintain service programs, for a variety of related reasons.

I'm sorry I don't really have time to get into it now, but I've got a
series of articles that may help.  You can find the links here:

The first two in particular address your situation.

Best of Luck,
