Tag a Single Customer (Desktop Client)

In the Desktop Client contact list, click the View Profile icon next to a customer. In the right panel, click Manage Tags in the Customer Tag area. Team tags are displayed by category — single-select categories allow only one choice; multi-select categories support overlapping selections. Personal tags can be created inline by typing; click the x next to a tag to remove it.

Important Notes

  • Team tags are managed centrally by the admin. The Desktop Client only allows selection — not creation or editing.
  • Personal tags are visible only to the creator and do not appear in Home's tag statistics.
  • Tags are auxiliary classification tools. They are not the same as follow-up stages.

FAQ

Q: What is the difference between team tags and the "Stage" field in contacts? A: Stage is a system built-in sales funnel status — a structured follow-up progress marker. Team tags are custom classification dimensions defined by the admin, offering more flexibility. Both can be used simultaneously without conflict.

Q: Can sales reps create team tags from the Desktop Client? A: No. Only admins can create and edit team tags in Home.

Q: Is the data in tag statistics real-time? A: Yes. Tag statistics reflect the current tag status of all contacts in real time. No manual refresh is needed.
