Universal Tagging System - ISO FileMaker Magazine | Learning Claris FileMaker | Scoop.it

One of the most wonderful aspects of FileMaker, or any development project, is implementing a portion of the software which can be used system wide.

Meaning you don't have to recreate functionality over and over again in order to benefit from what you implement initially. Especially when it can be used in all locations universally.

 

In this video, I show you how to implement a Universal Tagging System in which you can apply tags to any other element you're managing within your database system.

 

Are you needing to divide up the people you are tracking into multiple different groups?

No problem.

 

Do you anticipate that those groups will change and vary over time?

No problem.

 

Do you have more than one thing which could benefit from being tagged for the purpose of organization?

No problem.

 

This system implements tags in such a way that they can be used to pretty much tag anything you can think of within your database solution.
