This activity allows you to create bulk tags. Bulk tags can be created while creating an asset and with reference to an asset number. Hence, an asset is divided into various tags identified with it. For example, if 100 computers are bought under an invoice and defined as an asset then every computer can be assigned an asset tag in this activity.
