Automated tag association

Associate tags to products using location data from tags

Summary

In production environments, if a product is to be tagged its tag is normally attached early in the product's lifecycle and subsequently removed when the product is completed. Automated tag association allows the user to place and configure association objects and disassociation objects. When a product and a tag are both positioned at an association object, the tag is associated to the product; similarly when the tagged product is positioned at a disassociation object, its tag is removed. This provides a way of managing tag-to-product association that is much less error-prone and more efficient than a manual configuration process. Automated tag association has been used for many years in large-scale production environments to associate and remove hundreds of tags every day.

If the Visibility component is also licensed, SmartSpace provides a browser-based interface to display automated association status data.
