Definition

A tag in MANSOQ is a label that you define once and then attach to records such as encounters, service requests, and accounts. You define a tag for one facility, and staff at that facility can then apply it. A superuser can also define an instance-wide tag that every facility can use.

Note: MANSOQ has no FHIR R5 resource for a tag. A tag works like a coded value that your organization defines for its own use.

Note: This document covers the tag definition only. To attach a tag to a record or remove it, read the documentation of that record. For encounters, read Manage Encounter tags.

Key Attributes

Components What it captures
Display The name of the tag that MANSOQ shows to users.
Category The subject area of the tag.
Resource The type of record that you can attach the tag to. You select this when you create the tag, and you cannot change it later.
Priority A number that sets the order of the tag in lists. The default value is 100.
Status Whether staff can apply the tag.
Description A short text that explains the purpose of the tag.
Managing Organization The facility organization that manages the tag. For an instance-wide tag, this is an instance-level organization.
Has Children Whether the tag has child tags under it.

Category

Category groups tags by subject area. Select one of these values:

Resource

Resource sets the type of record that staff can attach the tag to. Select one of these values:

Parent and child tags

You can arrange tags in a tree. A root tag holds one or more child tags. A child tag takes the Category and the Resource of its parent tag, and you cannot change these two fields on the child tag.

Child tags under the same parent work as a set of choices. Staff can apply only one child tag from a parent group to a record at a time. If staff select a different child tag under the same parent, MANSOQ replaces the earlier selection. A root tag without children has no such limit, and staff can combine it with other tags.

Status

MANSOQ has no delete action for a tag. To stop the use of a tag, set its status to Archived.

Status Description
Active Staff can apply the tag to records.
Archived Staff can no longer apply the tag to records.

To archive a root tag, edit the tag. Change the Status field to Archived. MANSOQ has no one-click archive action for a root tag. For a child tag, MANSOQ shows an Archive action. MANSOQ asks you to confirm before it archives the child tag.
