# Customization The UP Scorecard assesses generic foodware and food packaging types and assumes a set of default settings. The tool offers many possibilities to change some of these default settings (but not all), allowing you to consider your local conditions, and to align the scoring with your business needs. Customization possibilities cover various topics, and they affect different metrics and scores. You can explore what you can customize in the next section [What can you customize?](/using-the-tool/customization/what-can-you-customize.md), and you can learn how to customize in the section [How can you customize?](/using-the-tool/customization/how-to-customize.md). --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
