The present invention relates to abstract product descriptions and methods. In a first general aspect, a method comprises a computer program product tangibly embodied in an information carrier, the computer program product including instructions that, when executed, perform operations for configuring a logistic unit for planning and processing in a logistic environment. The method may comprise accessing a template database object that may be compatible with a modeled logistic environment process, and receiving a user assignment of defined attributes for the accessed template object. The defined attributes may describe a feature common to multiple different physical receptacles used to contain stock in a logistic environment or a feature common to contents of the receptacles. The generated logistic unit may be based on the template database object and the defined attributes, wherein the logistic unit is assignable to a stock item to define how the stock item is to be handled in the modeled logistic environment process.
