# Label data on a report

> Assign unallocated transactions to the right dimension item by dragging rows on a report, from the Actions menu or in the Label panel, and optionally create a rule for future transactions.

You can enrich your accounting data for management reporting directly on a report. Labeling assigns transactions to a dimension item, for example moving a cost from **Unassigned** to the Sales & marketing department. The report then shows the cost in the right place.

## Label by dragging rows on a report

1. Open a report that shows the dimension, with the unallocated transactions under **Unassigned**.
2. Select one or more rows.
3. Drag the selected rows onto the dimension item you want. The **Label** window opens.
4. Check the rows under **Source** and the dimension items under **Target**. Use **Add dimension label** to add another dimension, or remove rows and targets you don't want.
5. To label future transactions the same way, turn on **Rule** and choose **All existing and future** or **Starting from** a date.
6. Click **Apply**.

> Hold Alt while you drop to label straight away without the **Label** window.

## Label from the Actions menu

When the dimension item you want isn't visible on the report:

1. Select the rows you want to label.
2. Open **Actions** and select **Modify** > **Label selected…**. You can also right-click the rows and select **Label selected…**.
3. In the **Label** window, click **Add dimension label** and pick the dimension item.
4. Click **Apply**.

## Label in the Label panel

1. Open **Actions** and select **Modify** > **Label panel…**.
2. In the **Label** panel, open the dimension you want.
3. Drag the selected rows onto the right dimension item.
4. Confirm in the **Label** window and click **Apply**.

## When the report updates

By default the report refreshes right after you label. Labeled rows then move under the selected dimension item.

If you label many rows in a row, you can delay the refresh. Open **Settings** from the account menu, select **Behavior** and turn on **Delay refresh** under **Labeling**. Labeled rows are then greyed out and marked with a price tag icon until you click **Update** in the top bar. In the same place, **Skip confirmation** labels without the **Label** window every time.

## Manage rules

Rules you create while labeling are listed on the **Labeling rules** page. In the **Label** window, click **Rules view** to open it in a new browser tab. See [Automate labeling with rules](https://support.caleido.io/guides/dimensions/labeling-rules.md).
