Associating domain tags to support groups

A domain tag is a label that as an administrator, you can associate with Foundation data to identify it with a line of business in your application. The domain tag determines the line of business to which the support group belongs. When you define a line of business, a domain tag of the same name as the line of business is created. As an administrator, you can create a domain tag and associate this domain tag with the support groups to view only the data belonging to that domain.
