Defining attribute templates

You can define attribute templates, which contain attribute values you can use to quickly and consistently assign values to user-defined attributes for accounts or accounting units. You associate each template with one object type and you can only include one value for each attribute. Use this procedure to define a new attribute template and to associate that template with an object type.
