Add Tags

This article provides information about tags and steps to add tags.

Tags are a label you assign a family or member, a convenient and powerful way to organize families and members in Directory. You can create a tag for any information you wish to track and can add one or more tags to a family or to individual members. Adding tags to families and members is especially helpful for quickly and accurately performing actions in or retrieving data from the system. You can use the tags to filter for families / members in Quick Tasks and Directory reporting.

Filtering for assigned tags in Quick Tasks, allows you to conveniently perform actions in the system, such as adding families / members to envelope lists and sending group messages, for the precise families and members you want. In addition, you can use your assigned tags as filters in the Family List Report and Member List Report to help you find the information you need.

Note* Tags are added at the family level or to individual members; adding a tag to a family does not automatically add the tag to members of the family.
