Managing Labels

The Labels field is a system-defined field in modules like Requirement and Test Case. It is most often used for a major classification of a product or service. Some organizations use “Module,” "Component," and "Product" in place of Label.

Sharing Labels

Share labels to use the same Label values in other projects. You can copy and import Labels.
