title: Create expense tags | ||
description: Add tags to use for coding expenses | ||
--- | ||
<div id="new-expensify" markdown="1"> | ||
|
||
In Expensify, tags refer to **classes, projects, cost centers, locations, customers, jobs**, and other line-item details that help code expenses for accounting and financial reporting. | ||
|
||
An admin can manually create tags for a workspace, or they will be automatically imported if your workspace is connected to an accounting system, like QuickBooks Online or Xero. These imported tags can be enabled or disabled to use as tags for expenses added to Expensify. Additionally, Expensify will learn how you apply tags to specific merchants over time and apply them automatically. | ||

# Enable or disable tags | ||

Once you have manually added your tags or automatically imported them from a connected accounting system, you can enable or disable the tags to determine whether they can be added to expenses. | ||
|
||
{% include info.html %} | ||
After connecting an accounting system, Expensify automatically imports classes, projects, customers, and additional details into your workspace as disabled tags. Workspace admins can enable these tags to make them available for workspace members to add to their expenses. | ||

# Automatic Expensify tags | ||
|
||
Over time, Expensify learns how you tag specific merchants and automatically applies that tag to the merchant in the future. | ||
- If you change a tag, Expensify learns that correction over time as well. However, changing a tag on one expense does not change it for other expenses that have already been assigned the tag. | ||
- Any expense rules for your workspace take priority over Expensify’s automatic tags. | ||
- Expensify won’t automatically tag an expense if it is already manually assigned a tag. | ||
|
||
{% include faq-begin.md %} | ||
**Can I edit my tags on a submitted expense report?** | ||
|
||
Yes, you can edit tags on an expense you have submitted until the expense is approved or reimbursed. | ||
|
||
Approvers can also edit tags on the submitter’s behalf, even after approval. If you are an approver reviewing a report that wasn’t submitted to you, you’ll see the option to take control of the report and then you can change the tag. | ||
|
||
**Can I see an audit trail of tag changes on an expense?** | ||
|
||
Yes. When a tag is manually edited, Expensify will log the change in the related workspace chat. | ||
|
||
**If I change tags in my accounting system, what happens to tags in the workspace?** | ||
|
||
If a tag is disabled in the accounting system, it will be removed from the workspace’s tags list in the workspace. However, the disabled tag will remain on approved and drafted expense reports that it has been previously added to. An admin can change the tag on an approved or reimbursed expense, and anyone can change the tag on an unapproved expense. | ||
|
||
**Can I set up multi-level tags in New Expensify?** | ||
|
||
At this time, only single-level tags are available in New Expensify. If you’ve used multi-level tags in Expensify Classic, you will see the first-level tag in New Expensify. Multi-level tags are under development. | ||
