How to create a tag

Overview

This flow describes how to create a tag for a facility, and how to add a child tag below it. Staff can then apply the tag to records of the resource type that you select.

Pre-requisites

  • You are a member of the facility for which you create the tag.
  • You know the resource type that the tag applies to. You cannot change the resource type later.
  • If you create a child tag, the parent tag exists.
  • You have the permissions listed below.

Only an administrator of the deployment can create a tag that has no facility. Such a tag is available in every facility.

Steps

Go to the facility. Select Settings, then select Tag config. Care shows the tags of the facility. The list shows Active tags first.

2. Start a new tag

6. Edit or archive a tag

Select Edit tag on the tag details to change the display name, the category, the priority, the status, or the description. To retire a child tag, select Archive on the child, then confirm the action.
