Overview: Tags

One of the primary activities when preparing documents for discovery is applying tags. A tag is a type of “marker” that allows you to categorize and identify specific document characteristics.

Typically defined by an administrator, tags allow you and your organization to find and identify similar documents—for example, those that are privileged in some way, or those requiring review by a topic expert. OPEN DISCOVERY Review makes it easy for you to tag documents.

Administrators can assign hotkeys to individual tags. After a hotkey has been assigned, reviewers working in the Document Viewer window can quickly apply a tag to a document by pressing the keys associated with that shortcut.

For instructions about how to assign a shortcut to a tag, see Work with Tag Options. For information about how to review documents by using keyboard shortcuts, see Use Keyboard Shortcuts To Review Documents.
