# Labels

The Labels feature allows you to apply flexible, non-exclusive tags to articles. Unlike the “Move to” function, applying a label does not change the article’s physical location; it simply associates a keyword or category with it.

**Purpose:** labels help tag articles with multiple relevant keywords or categories, making filtering, searching and cross-referencing easier – without altering their primary folder location. Labels also serve as a tool for categorising content. Some labels are **system-defined **(e.g. Archive) and **cannot be deleted**. This section also acts as the central hub for managing all available labels.

### **Search for a Label**

Use the search bar at the top of the dialog to quickly find an existing label by typing its name. (See screenshot below)

### **Select existing labels**

Click on any of the listed labels (e.g. “Price reductions”) to apply them to the selected articles.

### **Create a new Label**

1. ****Enter the label name****
   - Type the desired name for your new label in the Enter Label Name field.
2. ****Select a parent label (optional)****
   - Use the dropdown menu to assign a parent label, if applicable.
   - Selecting No Parent Label creates a standalone (top-level) label.
   - Choosing an existing label as a parent will nest the new label under it as a sub-label.
3. **Click Create to save the new label.**
   - If needed, click **Cancel **to discard the process.

This feature allows you to create structured label hierarchies, improving clarity and organisation across your folders and categories.
