Custom Product Tagging

Introduction to Custom Tagging

Eva now supports User-Defined Custom Tagging, allowing you to label and organize your products effortlessly. Whether you need a simple tag structure or a more advanced grouped tagging system, this feature helps streamline your inventory management.

There are two types of tagging structures:

Standard Custom Tags – Simple labels assigned to products.
Grouped Custom Tags – Organize tags under structured categories.

You can mix and match both types depending on your needs.

Organizing Products with Standard Custom Tags

Standard custom tags can be considered as simple custom labels that can be assigned to desired products. This structure is the default way to label your products with custom tag names. Just create your own custom tags and assign them to the desired products, that’s it.

Consider that you have labeled your products as follows:

You can filter your products according to their tags as follows:

When you select multiple tags for filtering, it will return all products assigned to any of the selected tags:

Organizing Products with Grouped Custom Tags

The Grouped Custom Tags feature helps you organize your products in a clear and structured way. Instead of using tags separately, you can group related tags under Tag Groups, making it easier to find and manage your products.

Each Tag Group represents a product attribute, while the tags within it serve as the possible values for that attribute. Using Tag Groups ensures a well-structured and easy-to-manage tagging system, making it simpler to filter and organize your products.

For example, if you want to categorize products by color, you can create a “Color” tag group and add tags like “Red,” “Green,” and “Blue” as values under it. Similarly, if you need to organize by size, you can create a “Size” tag group and include tags like “Small,” “Medium,” “Large,” and “X-Large”. Another common use is organizing clothing by gender, where you can create a “Gender” tag group with values like “Women’s,” “Men’s,” and “Unisex.”

Here’s an example of how your products can be tagged and grouped:

You can filter your products with the help of tag groups and tags as follows:

You can also use both standard tags and grouped tags at the same time. If a tag is not placed under a Tag Group, it will function as a standard tag, allowing flexibility in how you label and organize your products. This way, you can mix both structured and standalone tags depending on your needs.

Here is an example of using simple and grouped tags at the same time:

In this case, the filtering will be as follows:

Using Custom Tags on Eva

The product list table on the system’s welcome page (Trend Analytics) is where all operations, such as creating tags, assigning them to products, and tracking them, are carried out.

Viewing Tags

The Product List table consists of dynamic columns. The Tags column will disappear if you uncheck the “Tags” in the “Column Options”

When you hover the pointer over a tag, the tooltip will display the tag group information if the tag is grouped.

Adding an Existing Tag to a Product

Click the“+Add Tag” button for a product

The tags created before are listed in the dialog

While selecting a tag for a product, you can filter them by typing the name of the tag.

Select and click one of them to relate it to the product

The selected tag will be added to the table. When a product is associated with a tag, the SKUs of that product will automatically be associated with the tag as well.

Creating a New Tag and Relating it to a Product by Typing the Name

Click the“+Add Tag” button for a product

If you can’t find a suitable tag in the tags dialog, you can type the desired name and click the “Create New” button to create one.

By typing and clicking the Create button, the tag will be created and associated with the product. The created tag will then be added to the table.

Creating a Grouped Tag and Relating it to a Product

You can click on the “Create New” button without typing a name

This navigates you the “New Tag” dialog. After typing the tag name and selecting the tag color, it can be created by the “Create New” button on the dialog

By selecting “You can add this tag to a ‘Tag Group’” check box, the system will allow you to select a tag group from the “Tag group name” list

Tags groups that were created previously are listed in the Tag Group Name list. You can either select one of them or click “+Add New Tag Group” to create and name a new tag group.

Removing an Existing Tag from an SKU

If you hover over an existing tag you can see the cross button (X) at the right side of the tag. By clicking the cross button the system removes the tag from the related SKU.

Editing an Existing Tag

If you hover over an existing tag you can see the edit (pen) button at the left side of the tag.

By clicking this button the system navigates you to the editing dialog

When editing an existing tag, you can also set or edit the tag’s group.

Adding a Tag to More Than One Product

You can select more than one product on the table. If you select any product on the table, the button, “Tag Selections,” will appear at the top right of the table.

This button enables you to choose a tag from the tag list to relate to the selected product

While choosing a tag, you can filter by typing tag name of course.
If you can not find a suitable tag, you can simply press the “Create Tag” button to create a new tag and relate it to the selected products.

Filtering the Products With the Help of Custom Tags

To filter your SKUs by custom tag, simply click the “+Add Filter” button and select the “Tag” menu. This allows you to choose the desired tags for filtering your SKUs.

If there are tags that are not grouped

If there is no tag:

If there are both grouped and not grouped tags together

After filtering the SKUs, you can edit the applied filter by clicking the corresponding tag filter.

Match Any vs. Match All Filter

When filtering by multiple tags, you can choose between Match Any and Match All modes.

Match Any (Union)

Displays products that have at least one of the selected tags.
Acts as a Union of tags, meaning if a product has any of the selected tags, it will be included in the results.
Use this option when you want a broad selection of products.

Match All (Intersection)

Displays only products that have every selected tag.
Acts as an Intersection of tags, meaning only products that contain all the selected tags will be included.
Use this option when you need specific filtering to find products that match all your criteria.

Example Usage

You have 3 products with the following tags:

Product	Tags
Product A	Best Seller, High Rated, Red
Product B	Discounted, New Arrival, Blue
Product C	Best Seller, Discounted, Yellow

Scenario 1: Match Any (Union)

Selected Tags: Best Seller, Discounted
Products Returned:

✅ Product A (Best Seller)
✅ Product B (Discounted)
✅ Product C (Best Seller & Discounted)

Since Match Any returns all products that contain at least one of the selected tags, all three products are included.

Scenario 2: Match All (Intersection)
