Create and manage tags | Online Help - Bigin by Zoho CRM

Create and manage tags

Tags are labels that let you categorize records in a module based on certain characteristics. For ex: if you want to categorize contacts based on their relationship with your business, you can use tags like 'customers', 'prospects', 'vendors', etc.
Furthermore, you can differentiate the records by assigning each tag a color from the predefined set as you create them. For example, if you have tags like Hot, Warm, Cold in the Contacts module then you can assign colors like red for Hot, Yellow for warm and Blue for cold prospects to differentiate them visually. 
Note
  1. Tags are module specific.

Adding tags 

You can add tags to records in the following ways:
  1. Tag a specific record.
  2. Tag records in bulk.
  3. Tag records during import. 
  4. Tags during Workflow Automation.

  2. Select the record to which you would like to add Tags.
  3. Click the + icon in the Tags section.
  4. In the Add Tags popup, enter the tags that you would like to add to the selected records.
  5. Assign a color to the tag if required.
  6. Click Save.

To add tags in bulk

To add tags during import

You can add tags to the records while importing them. Tags can be added in a separate column in the import file and can be mapped with the Tag field.

Or, you can add tags in the last stage of the import process using the Add Tags option. Here, the tags added will be common to all the records in the import file.
