Tags
An explanation on how tags work in the system.
This section discusses the various ways tags can be implemented to group products and orders.
Tags are entities that can be used to build custom collections of other entities, currently the system support using them with Products, Global Products, and Orders. For instance, apart from pre-defined Product Categories in the system, tenant users/ shop owners can build their own custom product category hierarchy using tags when needed. To clarify with an example, both 4g and 5g phones have been released in 2021, so tags can be crated as 4g and 5g to define those products.
In the system, Product Categories are pre-defined, the Shop Owners cannot create them. For instance, the Office Solutions category has several sub-categories. So, if a Shop Owner wants to sell Printer-Scanner combo Product, they will have to create a New Category because such category does not exist under Office Solutions category. Tags allow creating New Categories like 3D printer-scanner, receipt printer-scanner, or barcode printer-scanner etc.
