SUSE Newbie Question on Starting Services

Hello, list, I know I can start services directly by invoking the appropriate init script in /etc/init.d, but does SUSE have an analog to the Red Hat "service" utility? For example, On Red Hat/Fedora, I could say: /sbin/service postfix start to start Postfix. Has SUSE an equivalent?
