For information on the types of attribute bundle supported, see Attribute Bundles.

An application generates a customizing object by instantiating an attribute bundle class and specifying a name under which the desired settings are (to be) stored on the database. For more information on the instance name, see Creating Customizing Bundles.

Customizing objects provide methods so that they can be saved persistently on the database; programs can change individual attributes.

An object-oriented conception was used for Customizing so that fixed settings can be read from the database and values can be changed online or in the application program.

Existing settings are loaded for the name when the customizing object's method IF_CUSTOMIZING~LOAD is called after generation. The application can then adjust/change individual attributes to its own requirements and then assign the customizing object to one or more graphics proxies.

One advantage of bundling attributes that belong together is that you can set attribute values more efficiently; the attributes can be sent to the front end more quickly.

The graphics proxies have graphics-specific ports such as primary X axis (see the documentation on the graphics proxy).
