Checklist templates are frequently categorized into various groups or types, which is crucial when arranging them or allocating them to projects, companies, or users. Users can assign tags to checklists in the Checklist Template Maintenance screen, which provides a more organized and efficient method of managing, sorting, and navigating through checklists. Tags exist at both the system and project levels to enable customization without overcrowding the tag pools.

Prerequisites

The following admin privileges are required to view the [Tag Maintenance] button on the Checklist Template Maintenance screen:

  1. The 'Checklist Admin' privilege should be assigned in the Role Maintenance screen, as shown in the screenshot below. This privilege allows users to edit and apply tags at the system and project levels.
