PDiTags is a way to extract information for specific customers, prospects or suppliers. PDiTags can then target tagged records with specific marketing and tasks assigned to users. The Tag/Task Wizard gives eleven fixed methods to Tag customers; the final method uses SQL statements available within the OLAP cubing module. The user-definable option expands the ability to tag customers beyond the default options given within PDi CRM.
