Tags for Organizations

Find out how you can create helpful tags for your organizations and how to assign them

Written by Sara Kilic

What are tags?

Tags are short keywords or labels, which you can use to additionally identify the organizations you have created. They assist in assigning certain properties to organizations, clearly differentiate them, and filter them in a targeted manner.

For example, you can specify whether an organization is a manufacturer, supplier, or another category. This labeling makes the classification clear and provides a better overview in your system.
