Tags are available to businesses that are subscribed to Wave's Pro Plan. To subscribe to Pro, see Activate a Pro Plan subscription.

If a tag is on any transactions, you cannot delete the tag. Instead, you can archive it. When you archive a tag, it stays on your transactions, but you can no longer use or edit it.

Deleting a tag is permanent, and the tag cannot be recovered. If you have archived a tag, you can restore it at any time. Learn how to restore an archived tag.

Archive or delete a tag

To archive or delete a tag:

  1. Open the Tags page.
  2. Select one or more tags from the list.
  3. Click the trash can icon at the top of the tags list.
  4. In the pop-up, depending on the tags you chose, select from the following options:
    • Archive tags in use and delete others: This archives tags that are actively attached to a transaction and deletes the tags that are unused.
    • Archive all: This archives all selected tags.
    • Delete: If all selected tags are not actively attached to a transaction, they will be deleted permanently.

To view archived tags, on the Tags page, select the Archived tab at the top left.
