How do I add a different tag in a tag group to the same expense?

Hello, I'll give an example so this question will be clearer. I have a transaction for Sam's. I bought coffee and scissors. I have a Tag Group named Office Supplies with Tags named "Coffee" and "Stationery." When I add this expense for Sam's with the tag for Coffee, it allows me to add it in the Tag Group "Office Supplies", but it will not give me the option to add another tag to the transaction for "Stationery" under the same Tag Group as "Office Supplies." It will only allow me to add a tag for a completely different tag group. Is this a bug in the system? Thank you for your help.

Welcome to Community, @SDM2.

 

 

I have some information about adding tags. You can add as many tags as you like to a transaction. But you can only choose one tag per group. That said, adding another tag under the same group tag isn't possible.

Thank you for the quick response.  I'm very disappointed because this would streamline my "by tag" report, but it is good to know that I wasn't missing something.  Peace and thanks again.
