Docs: Using Tags in the Categories sheet

Hi @rianandcourtney,
Using tags on the Transactions sheet is different than using them on the Categories sheet.
They work differently and are not related.

See here for how the Tags work with the Tags Report Sheet and the Transactions sheet:

Docs: Tags Report for Transaction Tagging

Overview Tags are a great way to organize your financial data. You can easily add the Tags Report sheet with a few manual steps. [tags-report-sept2019] The Tags Report: Lists the tags you’re using on your Transactions sheet. Shows you the sum amount for transactions that use that tag. Gives a total count of the transactions using that tag. Offers a tag dropdown to show you transaction details for a specific tag. Provides a summary of the categories where that tag is used for a transaction…

Hopefully, this will help it make more sense.
