You can either add a public tag that all users can see or you can add a private tag by adding an asterisk (*) directly before the tag text that can only be seen by the individual user.

In addition, there is a list of the 50 most recently used tags from the last 30 days as well as the Top 50 most popular tags that have been used in the SAP Business ByDesign system, including the private tags.
