Add a tag
Leave match terms blank to use the tag name itself. normal matches subject or body, case-insensitive. strict is case-sensitive — use for short acronyms like US, EV, RE. ambiguous matches the subject only — use for ordinary English words like Value, Growth, Power.

Load a ticker list
Two columns: ticker and company name, in either order, with or without a header row. Comma, tab or semicolon separated — a paste straight out of Excel works.
Or paste the list
Merge is the default: existing tickers not in the upload are kept. Replace drops them, which is what you want after fixing a bad load and nothing else.

Nothing is written until you press Apply.
TickerCompany Records
Stored as _tickers.json beside _config.json, so it syncs to everyone through SharePoint. It is a convenience for the Entry page, not a source of truth — a ticker missing from it still saves fine, the company name just stays blank until someone fills it in.
Resolve blank company names
Records that carry a ticker but no company name, where the ticker list knows the name. Rewrites entity on those records and bumps the revision.
Config file
Stored as _config.json beside the NOTES folder. It syncs to everyone through SharePoint. Only edit it from this page, or by hand in Notepad when nobody else is editing.
Contributors
NameInitialsRecords
Initials go into note_id, which is what stops two people colliding on the same subject on the same day. Two contributors with the same initials would collide — flagged below if that happens.
Actions
ActionRecords
Fills the Action dropdown on the Entry page for everyone. Adding a value is cheap — records written before it stay valid. Removing one is not: records already carrying it keep it on disk and will read back as a value that is no longer in the list, so a value in use cannot be removed here. Values are lowercase by convention; initiate add trim exit are treated as position changes elsewhere in the app, so renaming those breaks the strategy warning.
Strategies
StrategyRecords
Required on a Trading Log entry. Closed list on purpose — free text gives you Direct US, DirectUS and Direct U.S. inside a month, and the grouping query is then worthless.
