Hi. The easiest way to find out is go into a sandbox system and change the types in SM30 and view T77OMATTR and see what the difference is.

Normal inheritance (additive) means that attributes are inherited and can be added to at lower levels. You get a little + button and can add extra values lower down. If you want to exclude values lower down you need to add the same value and tick the "exclude" option.

Local values overwrite means that you can not add extra values lower down. You get a replace button and can press it and put in a new value at the lower level, that is all.

No inheritance means that the attribute is not passed down at all to lower levels.

Inherited values can not be redefined locally means that the values can not be changed or added to at a lower level. They can be excluded or set as default lower, but not changed.

Dave.
