Compare files
The Compare feature helps you review and verify the transfer of tags from the previous year's tagged file to the current year's file after using AI/ML functionality. This feature highlights differences but also ensures you can easily manage tags, whether they’ve been successfully transferred, require manual adjustments, or need to be removed.
In this article, we’ll walk you through how to use the Compare feature effectively, covering key functionalities such as comparing files, manually transferring tags, working with table tags, moving tags within a file, and removing tags that were transferred incorrectly.
1. Click on the "Compare" 
icon in the top-right corner of the screen.
2. Once activated, the previous year’s tagged file will appear on the left, while the current year’s file will be displayed on the right.
3. You can click on each element in the previous year's tagged file, and the corresponding element linked to the current file will automatically be highlighted in blue.
4. To make the comparison process easier, the feature uses specific colors to highlight content:
Yellow: Represents hidden tags in the previous file.
Green: Shows tags that have been successfully transferred from the previous to the current file.
Red: Highlights tags that were not transferred successfully and require your attention.
The number of hidden tags, tags that were successfully transferred, and tags that could not be transferred. With this clear visual aid, you can quickly identify which areas need further action.
Transfer tags manually
If any tags have not been automatically transferred, they will be highlighted in red within the previous file. You can easily transfer these tags manually by following the steps below:
1. Identify and select the content highlighted in red in the previous file.
2. Next, Select the corresponding content in the current file also in the previous file
3. Click on the "Tag" icon located at the top-right corner of the screen and tag will be transferred successfully.
Transfer Table Tags
If tags within tables are not transferred automatically, you can manually transfer them with ease by following the steps below.
1. Ensure the "Table Tag" toggle is switched "ON" before proceeding.
2. Select the table content from the previous file.
3. Identify and select the corresponding table content in the current file.
4. Click on the "Tag" icon to complete the transfer.
Ensure the number of rows or columns you select matches between the two files. If they do not align, the tag transfer will not be successful.
Move Tags within the Current File
You can also transfer tags from one section of the current file to another. Follow the steps below.
1. Select the tagged content that you want to move.
2. Hold down the Ctrl key and then select the destination content where the tags should be transferred.
3. Click on the "Move Tag".
4. The tags will now be transferred to the new location seamlessly.
Multi-Tag Ref
When an element is tagged multiple times, the Multi-Tag Reference feature helps you identify and manage these instances easily. To use this feature:
1. Toggle ON the "Multi-Tag Ref" button.
2. Once enabled, a number will appear above each piece of content, indicating how many times it has been tagged. This feature ensures you can keep track of repeated tags and make any necessary adjustments.
Remove Tags
If any tags have been incorrectly transferred, you can remove them quickly and effortlessly by the steps below.
1. Select the incorrectly tagged content in the current file.
2. Click on the "Remove Tag" icon. The tag will be deleted successfully, leaving your file clean and accurate.
