This option allows you to create and customize instrument criticality values that appear on the Criticality list in the Criticality column of an EDE view. Tag criticality is a user-defined process classification of instruments, for example process safety system, environmentally vital system, quality system, and so forth. Tag categories help you select groups of tags when performing Maintenance module procedures.

If the criticality list is long, start typing a criticality name in the Find criticality box. In the data window, Smart Instrumentation highlights the required name as you type.
