Improve Department Visibility With Cross-Tagging

Create tasks in multiple work streams without duplicating the task itself. This way, your task is easily accessible to multiple departments, but can be uniquely tracked for your team’s specific purposes.

Let’s say you are asked to approve an event budget. The overall task may be the event itself, but the budget subtask is the only one that’s relevant to you. Simply cross-tag that subtask into your folder and it will show up in your weekly report.

With Wrike, a single folder can live in multiple places. For example, a “Marketing Campaign” folder can be cross-tagged into your marketing team’s quarterly folder, as well as the lead generation team’s designated Space.

Cross-tagging is also useful when it comes to tracking departmental milestones. For example, a milestone task can exist in a marketing department’s folder, but it can also be included in a report on PMO milestones.

Different teams track different project phases. A marketer follows a go-to-market plan, while a developer oversees app development stages. Luckily, cross-tagging means their shared tasks can reside in separate phases.

Gain valuable context on related projects with just one click. If your task is cross-tagged into two projects, for example, all you need to do is select those tags to open up the entire list of work under each specific label.

Manage multiple campaigns across various production stages with ease. Designers and marketers can access campaign assets within their respective workflows simply by cross-tagging their work.

When it comes to interdepartmental efforts, you need to receive critical updates from each team. Add agenda items to a shared list to discuss in daily standups or review separately.

Wrike users can tag a task in multiple places to ensure it is fully visible. For PMOs who want to view all components of a launch plan, cross-tagging saves time without sacrificing clarity.
