Globalizing standard attributes
You can customize the attributes on plan, program, and project templates for your organization and locales. You can globalize standard attributes that display on the plan, program, or project Summary tab by editing the Attributes tab.
On the Attributes tab, you can also determine whether the attributes are Required, Standard, or Hidden to streamline the template. You can add a custom help-tip, which displays when the user hovers the mouse over the attribute. The help-tip might tell users what information the field gathers when they make a new instance. These features determine how the standard attributes display on the Summary tab when users create a program or project from the template.
