Customizing the Settings for Automation Packs
Use the Settings dialog box to define the customization settings for the objects included in an automation 
pack. These settings can only be modified by the automation pack author. 
When the automation pack author imports a newer version of the TAP, the objects in the automation pack 
will replace the objects in the database.
When a third-party user imports a newer version of the TAP, the customization setting of an object will 
determine whether users customized values will be preserved.
The following are instances where an object customization will be lost.
  •
The author of the object no longer allows users to customize the object. Any customization of the 
object will be lost on upgrade. 
For example, the global variable customization level is set to Limited. Users change the variable 
value. However, in the updated TAP, the author no longer allows users to change the variable value, 
because the TAP must have a particular value. Therefore, the customization level is now set to No
  •
The object customization level is unchanged, but the schema of the object is changed. The old object 
is now obsolete and needs to be replaced.
