Eliz,

iviews are Portal content objects in portal where as Services are maintained in the backend system.

services are used in HomePage Framework .basically service holds a resource that points to a PCD location in portal.By using this we can reorgananise the ESS and MSS in portal

check this blog

go to SPRO-cross application components - HomePage framework --- Headers,Services etc

Iview is just like a template which points to the service (webdynpro application) in case of ESS/MSS.....so the iview points to the webdynpro to get the data on the screen...

Hope it helps.
