Account tagging is a useful feature that lets parent accounts mark themselves and their child accounts with custom tags. Tags can be used to indicate different characteristics of an account, such as its region, brand, department, or even its importance within your organisation; it’s completely up to you.
Tags can be used to filter accounts in Cross-account analytics.
There are two ways to manage account tags:
In the Tags area of the Settings menu you can create, edit and delete tags.
In the Accounts tab of the Team management area you can add and remove tags to and from your accounts.
