Adding Tags to your listings is a very powerful ability that can be used in multiple tools for multiple workflows. Our tag capabilities are designed to sustain a more organized (and seamless) process of managing listings and orders.
What are Tags and what do they do?
You can think of tags like labels for your listings that only you and your team can see. Adding Tags to your listings can save a lot of time when managing items and processing orders.
Some ways you might use Tags:
label the supplier information,
log the item's warehouse location,
make Custom Filters for certain types of items,
keep track of items that have been copied/imported,
and log other information about your listings.
Tools to use with Tags on listings:
Listings Manager's filters (to view items with certain tags),
viewed in the Orders Manager (for reference to location, supplier, etc.),
and even included in Orders and Listings CSV reports with Report Center (to create picklists, purchase orders, etc.).

When editing a listing, you can apply tags in the Product Details section under General Settings:

When importing listings via CSV, you can include Tags by using the header column "Tags."
If including multiple tags, separate them with a comma:
SKU | Title | Tags |
ITEM_1 | eBay Listing Product | One Tag |
ITEM_2 | eBay Listing Product 2 | First Tag,Second Tag |

In this example, we will add tags to listings to filter items from a certain supplier, then quickly create a CSV of items with low inventory to send to your supplier.
Step 1 - Create a filter for your supplier using tags
Tag each product from the supplier with the supplier's name
Add a filter for the supplier's tag
Pro Tip: Use the save button to create a quick filter
Step 2 - Export low inventory items from the supplier
Add a filter for low quantity
With your filters applied, select all listings
Select Export to CSV from the Bulk Actions menu.
You can then use the CSV file to quickly create a purchase order to send to this supplier.
