Labels in caralegal are used to identify various entries such as
Tasks,
processing activities,
Technical and organizational measures
and to create your own keyword search.
In other words, whenever you want your own filter option that does not yet exist, you can use labels and categories.
In other software and apps, you will find comparable functions under the terms tags or hashtags.
Note: Be careful not to create parallel labels.
You could easily be tempted to use your locations or departments as labels. However, there are already existing filters for this.
