What’s a Slingshot tag? A group and value(s) make a tag. The group is the category or bucket. Groups are created first, because values must belong to a group. Values are items in the category.

For example, Fraud is the group (category) and check is a value (item in the category).

Slingshot tags give you the flexibility to create custom cost categories that group your costs. For example, break down costs by cost centers that do not correlate to lines of business, or divy things up by project or team. The choice is yours. Tenant admins create tags and warehouse owners assign tags to their warehouses. Once tags are assigned, you’ll see them applied on the Slingshot Tags dashboard.
