Tagging

Tags enable you to group otherwise unrelated system entities to make them easily identifiable and searchable. For example, if several employees belong to the same department, you could tag them all with the name of the department. Searching for the department name in the system search area located at the top of all user accounts would then return all of those tagged employees in the results.

The following example makes use of Employee tags but is applicable to all entities that can be tagged.
