1. Use the Work with Element Customization (YWRKELMCST) command to display the various types of element customization.
2. Use F6 to create a new record with the following values:

   Customization ID: FMT_BG_YELLOW         Sequence no.:   1.00                    
   
   Customization information: <TR BGCOLOR=”YELLOW”>
   
   Customization type: O  (Input/Output)                                           
   
   Object type/attribute: FMT ALL                                                  
   
   Customization description: Yellow background for record formats
   
   F3=Exit  F12=Cancel  F13=Fast Exit
   

3. Enter the CA 2E model and take option 'S' to a function to display the screen for that function. Press F17 to display the DISPLAY SCREEN FORMATS screen. Select a record format (for instance, the Subfile control format).
4. Press F17 to display the Edit Screen Element Customization screen. This screen shows the element details (the fact that it is a subfile control record format). Type FMT_BG_YELLOW in the Customization Identifier input field, press Enter and confirm.

   Element Name: ZSFLCTL     Subfile control.                                
   
   Object Type: FMT  Object Subtype: CTL                                     
   
   Display File:  UUA8EFKD    Edit Address              Edit file            
   Record Format: ZSFLCTL     Subfile control.                               
   
   Customization Identifier:  FMT_BG_YELLOW         (Use '?' to select)      
   
   Customization Description: Yellow background for record formats           
   
   F3=Exit  F12=Cancel  F13=Fast Exit                                       
   

5. If you generate a skeleton for this function, the customization data entered in step 2 are generated into the skeleton:

   <!-- FORMAT:ZSFLCTL (Subfile control record) -->      
   <!-- Format-level element customization -->           
   <TR BGCOLOR="YELLOW">  
   <TD COLSPAN="002" HEIGHT="020">                     
   </TD>
