Welcome to the Community, @itsben. I’ll help you with your concern about tagging in QuickBooks Self-Employed (QBSE).
I understand the importance of adding tags to our transactions, as it helps customise labels and lets you track your money easily.
As you mentioned above, you imported the transactions back again to your QuickBooks Self-Employed account. Therefore, that’s why all the tags have disappeared as it freshly starts your banking transactions. What we can do here is manually add the tags again to your transactions.
Let me help you with creating tags in QBSE:
- Go to the Settings, and under Tools select Manage tags.
- Click Create new tag, and enter the Tag name.
- On the Group section, select Ungrouped.
- Hit Save.
Once done, you can then go to your transactions and manually add tags to them. You can either choose between Business and Personal for your transaction type. Then, under the tags column, you can click the Add tags button and select your preferred tag for the transaction.
