Tags
Tags help you organize, categorize, and quickly find information across your organization. By assigning tags to different objects, you can group related items, apply filters, and generate more meaningful reports.
What You Can Tag
In TARGPatrol, tags can be applied to multiple types of objects:
Users — group employees by role, team, shift, or responsibility
Issues — categorize incidents by type, priority, or department
Tasks — label work by service type, frequency, or contract
Points — mark checkpoints by zone, floor, or function
Locations — classify sites by client, region, or facility type
Checklists — organize procedures by use case or department
Using consistent tags across objects makes it easier to manage complex operations.
Why Use Tags
Tags provide flexible organization without changing your structure.
You can use them to:
Quickly filter lists and dashboards
Segment data for reports
Identify related items across locations
Simplify navigation in large organizations
Support operational analysis and audits
Managing Tags
All tags are managed centrally in the Tags component.
From there, you can:
Create Tags
Add new tags to represent categories relevant to your operations.
Edit Tags
Rename or update existing tags as your processes evolve.
Delete Tags
Remove tags that are no longer needed.
Changes are applied across all objects using the tag.
Best Practices
Use clear, consistent naming
Avoid creating duplicate or overlapping tags
Establish internal tagging standards for your team
Review unused tags periodically
Review tag changes in record History
For supported scheduled tasks, Incidents, legacy Issues, Users, Locations and Points, open the affected record’s History to review tag changes. Added and removed tags are displayed separately, with the recorded author and time when available. Renaming or deleting a shared tag may affect several records; review each affected record rather than expecting one combined timeline entry.
