# How to assign default tags for project workers for accounting

## Default accounting tags for worker profiles

If the *Production Accounting Suite* (PAS) is enabled for your company’s Wrapbook account, you can assign default tags to worker profiles. This helps accountants save time since they won't have to manually research and populate these codes for each transaction. To learn more about PAS, see [About production accounting](/v1/docs/about-production-accounting).

Key points about the tagging system:

- Workers cannot see the account and tag coding details in their view
- Only tag types that contain active codes are available for selection
- When a tag code is inactivated, the system will warn administrators if that code is assigned to any workers. If disabled, it will automatically remove that default code from affected worker profiles.
- If you want to assign an accounting code but it’s not available when updating a worker’s profile, you’ll need to update the *Tags* info in the *Project settings* under *Accounting*

To assign default tags for accounting:

1. In the left-side navigation, click the dropdown menu

In the dropdown menu, select the name of the project that you want to assign default tags for
2. In the left-side navigation, click **People**
3. On the project *People* dashboard, click the **View** button next to the worker profile that you want to assign tags to
