Tags can be assigned to a process unit. Some functions in PARCview require a tag to be assigned to a process to work properly, such as grade-based SQC tag limits.
Select the process area to which tags will be added.
Add tags to a process area by dragging and dropping the tags onto the table from the Tag Browser.
