Creating and Using Custom Transaction Labels

SUMMARY 
Learn how to set up and optimize your company's Transaction Labels and other settings related to Transaction Labels.

Introduction

Transaction Labels allow you to classify your transactions and typically represent the property type of a transaction (e.g., Residential, Commercial, Land and Lot, Rental, and Condo, etc.).

Transaction Labels play a critical role in Auto-assigning Checklist Templates and ensuring the appropriate tasks are added to transactions based on their property type.

The main benefits of using Transaction Labels include the ability to:

● Automatically assign checklists to transactions based on property type and other criteria.

● View a transaction's property type at-a-glance on the Transactions List.

● Filter and download reports and search results based on property type.
