Predefined Tags

Predefined tags in Mover simplify logistics operations by standardizing how teams label Orders, Services, Routes, and Reservations. By using predefined, selectable tags, teams reduce errors, streamline workflows, and ensure consistency across the Transport Management System (TMS).


Why Predefined Tags Matter

When tags are manually typed, they’re prone to errors and inconsistencies. This can result in:

  • Spelling mistakes or inconsistent terminology

  • Misclassified orders, routes, or services

  • Broken automations due to tag mismatches

  • Higher operational overhead

With predefined tags, you get:

  • Dropdown selection: Reduce typos with easy-to-use lists

  • Standardization: Ensure consistent naming across teams

  • Operational efficiency: Improve accuracy in automation, filtering, and workflows

  • Error reduction: Early adopters saw up to a 90% drop in tagging errors


How To Configure Predefined Tags?

Navigate to Predefined Tags

  • Go to Organization > Settings in the left-side navigation menu.

  • Click on the Predefined tags tab.

Choose a Tag Category

You can create tags for:

  • Orders

  • Services

  • Routes

  • Reservations

Use the dropdown to select your category before creating a new tag:

Create a New Tag

  • Click New tag.

  • Enter the Tag name.

  • (Optional) Add a Tag description to clarify its purpose

  • Click Create tag.

Your new tag will appear in the list, organized by category:

This will only be possible if the user has Edit permissions for Organization Settings.


Where Predefined Tags Appear in the TMS

Once created, predefined tags appear throughout the Mover TMS interface during your daily workflows, every time you need to edit tags. Here’s what they look like in context:

  • Orders - Tags appear during order modification and can be selected from predefined options for fast, consistent labeling.

    Predefined Order tags will also be available in other sections where Order tags filtering is possible: Order enrichment, Route Planning Rule Sets, Order Groups, Communication, and Route Stops.

  • Services - Tags appear in service workflows to help categorize and manage different types of tasks.

    Predefined Service tags will also be available in Service enrichment, Route Planning Rule Sets, Order Groups, Communication, and Route Stops.

  • Routes - Assign route-level tags like vehicle type or fuel type to optimize operations and filtering.

    Predefined Route tags are applicable every time a Route tag can be set: when editing a Route, in Route Planning Rulesets (Vehicle groups), in Route Templates, Auto Contractor Assignment and Communication templates.

  • Reservations - Tags are available when creating reservations to ensure consistent categorization.

    They will also appear as suggestions in the ICS.


Remember that:

  • Each predefined tag will appear in the drop-down with its description, to simplify understanding how to use it

  • If a tag has already been added, it will not appear in the drop down

  • If you start writing the tag, the drop down will be filtered, showing only the matching options

  • Predefined Tags are Organization specific: they will not appear to your Contractors

  • Predefined tags are not case sensitive
