Organizational Attributes

Attributes are always maintained for a specific scenario, which means you can maintain different attributes for each scenario. Attributes are generally passed onto the subordinate organizational unit. However, you can overwrite the attribute value of a subordinate organizational unit with another attribute value (inheritance type: overwrite inherited local values).  There are two kinds of attributes: organizational and general.

Organizational attributes indicate the type of an organizational unit.
