- Tip: the Replace command will import tag codes much faster than the Import command. Use the Import command only when appending a relatively small number of tag codes (less than 25k) to a tag action.
- Tip: the Delete All and Replace commands will generate a lot of empty space in the P3 database. We recommend running the Compact and Repair utility after running any of these commands to optimize the database.

Add Tag Prompts the user to enter a single tag
code into the list.
Import
User can select one or more files
containing a list of tag codes to import
into the list. The tag codes in the file
must be line and/or comma delimited.
Only recognizable tag codes will be
imported into the list - and a tag code
can only appear once in the list;
duplicate tag codes will be automatically
filtered during the import process.
Replace
This command will replace any existing
tag codes with new tag codes from one
or more selected files. Unlike the Import
command, the tag codes in the file must
be line delimited and the file name must
have a *.txt or *.csv extension. Any
duplicate tag codes will be automatically
filtered, however, tag codes will not be
validated for format when imported.
Note: the files selected for importing
must reside on read/write media. The
Replace command must generate a
temporary configuration file in the same
directory as the selected files.
Download
This command will prompt the user to
select a tag reader device configured in
the active profile to download the tag
codes stored in the device's memory and
append them to the list.
Delete All
This command will prompt the user to
delete all of the tag codes currently in
the list.
Delete
Selected
Tags
Selecting one or more tag codes in the
list and pressing DELETE will delete only
the selected tags from the list.
Activation This page allows the user to select which profile the tag action
should be enabled for. Tag Actions can also be activated from
within a profile as well.
