Folio Tag

The Folio Tag is a 15-character field on each BC OnLine search screen. You can enter a name, number, or alphanumeric to “tag” each search you do. This tag will be printed on your BC OnLine statement. If you pass the cost of BC OnLine searches to your clients, or if your firm has multiple cost centres using the same BC OnLine account, this may help you with your office accounting.

There is no charge for using the Folio Tag. If you don’t use it, the folio field on the statement will be blank.

To use the Folio tag, click the Folio field in the upper left-hand corner of the search screen, before you start a search. Type any combination of numbers or letters (up to 15).

When you do multiple transactions using the same folio tag, your statement will group these under each tag you used.

Note
The Folio field will hold the tag you type there until you either change it or delete it. The field does not clear after every search. You must type over the previous folio tag or use the space bar to blank it out each time you begin doing work for a different client. The Folio field is always blank each time you sign on to BC OnLine.

If you don’t need to use folio tags, just leave the Folio field blank.
