Tags are reusable labels you create once and apply across every kind of record. Each tag has a name and an optional color. Tags do double duty: they're your category system for transactions and your general labeling system for everything else.
Managing your tags
Open the Tags page to manage your tag library:
- Create a tag with a name and an optional color.
- Edit a tag's name and color in place.
- Delete a tag — it's removed from every record that carried it.
The table shows how many times each tag is used, so you can spot which tags actually carry weight in your workspace.
Where tags apply
You can attach tags to all of these:
The same tag is visible across all of them.
Adding tags
Every form with a tag field has a typeahead picker that suggests from your existing tags. Type a new name and it's created when you save — no need to declare new tags in advance.
Setting tags on a record replaces its whole tag set in one step, so you never end up with a half-applied set.
Filtering by tag
Tag filters are available on some lists — clients, projects, transactions, subscriptions, documents, and time entries. (Tasks and invoices accept tags but don't currently expose a tag filter.) Pick one or more tags and you'll see rows that carry any of them. When you combine the tag filter with other filters (status, date, client), a row has to match the tag filter and the others to appear.
The tag filter also offers Only entries with no tags. Tick it to find records that were never tagged — useful for spotting the gaps before you rely on a tag for reporting. It appears as its own removable chip, so you can see at a glance that it's on.
See Filters and sorting for the broader filter model.
Bulk tagging
Every entity that supports Bulk edit can have tags applied or replaced in bulk. The wizard treats the tag field as a full replacement: whatever you enter becomes the new tag set on each selected row.
The tags list itself supports selection too, but only to delete tags together — see Bulk edit.
What happens when you delete
- Deleting a tag removes it from every record that carried it. The records themselves are untouched.
- Deleting a record removes its tags from that record. The tags stay in your library.
- Renaming a tag doesn't break anything — every record that used it simply shows the new name.
Tips and edge cases
- Names are case-insensitive. A tag named

On mobile
Tags work the same on the mobile app — pick or type tags in a form's tag field (with type-ahead from your existing tags) and filter lists by tag. You can also manage your tag library from Settings → Tags — create, edit, recolor, delete, search, and sort — though editing is disabled while offline.
