  Key Concepts: 
  A class template is a type of object in the SAP Asset Central Foundation (ACF) component of the Supply Chain Management (SCM) module. It is used to define the characteristics of a class, such as its name, description, and attributes. The class template also defines the relationships between classes and other objects in the system. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Class templates are used to create classes in the system. To create a class, you must first create a class template. This can be done by selecting the “Create Class Template” option from the ACF menu. You will then be prompted to enter the name and description of the class, as well as any attributes that should be associated with it. Once you have completed this step, you can then create a class based on this template. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a class template, it is important to consider how it will be used in the system. Think about what attributes should be associated with it and how they will be used. Additionally, consider how the class will interact with other objects in the system and how it will be used in reports or other processes.
