Tags

The Tags module is the heart of X4D. X4D builds a Master Tag Registry by consolidating tags and attributes from every project source — mechanical equipment lists, line lists, instrument lists, cable schedules, specialty item lists, and more — and from every discipline, into a single, unified register.

Tags are grouped by discipline and arranged by classification. For any tag you can see its full attributes, its components and material take-off, and every document linked to it (tag-to-document cross-referencing), with hyperlinks back to the source document management system.

Each tag carries a 1D / 2D / 3D / 4D status so you always know where it exists:

  • 1D — present in the tag list / register
  • 2D — found on a drawing or document
  • 3D — verified in the 3D model
  • 4D — released by engineering for planning, work packages, and commissioning

In this section

  • Classifications — group tags by shared attributes and behaviour.
  • Managing Tags — create, edit, bulk-create, and configure tags.
  • Disciplines & Attributes — define disciplines and the attributes they carry.
  • Data Sheets — build and assign data-sheet templates per classification.
  • Tag References — catalogues and reference data used by tags.
  • Tag Auto-Naming — configure automatic tag-naming rules.

Note

Data import is performed in the X4D Data Import module; this section covers working with tags once they are in the registry. Add screenshots.
