Overview
Tags can be found in the Administration module > Settings > Management tab > Tags tab. Tags allow Communities to group Suppliers with purchasing categories like 'Office Supplies' while also grouping them in broader cross-cutting categories such as 'Sustainable' or 'Preferred'. Tags can be attached to suppliers and are visible within the search results and the View Suppliers page. Tags remain visible on the product throughout the purchasing process so items can be easily categorized during checkout and approval.
Communities can also apply a Boost to Supplier and Product Tags so that any Supplier or Product with the tag will be boosted in the search results. For example, if the 'Preferred' tag is boosted then any supplier meeting the search criteria AND tagged with 'Preferred' will appear at the top.
Tags can also be used to assist Accounts Payable with managing invoices sent to the Unimarket Invoice Inbox. The invoice stub can be assigned Tags to help identify who within Accounts Payable is responsible for reviewing the invoice.
