Does anyone know if I add a tag to a demand when it becomes a project will the tags still be associated with that record? Someone thought they saw it work that way, but they feel it has changed now and was wondering when/if it changed.

Tags are not copied from Demand to Project. Tags are not, strictly speaking, a "field" you can copy, but are rather entries on the label_entry table. Tags are a platform feature, not specific to SPM (or any process) so they tend to be unaccounted for in most cases.
If you're interested in what fields are actually copied, you can look at the script include "DemandToProjectCreationHelper" and the method "createProject()". In that method there should be an array of fields that are copied.
I hope this helps!
If this was helpful, or correct, please be kind and mark the answer appropriately.

That helps. We were able to see it wasn't working in our dev, but one of our PMO leaders swore she saw it working before where she would tag a demand and when it was converted to a project the tags were still associated with the project. She was asking me when it changed and I couldn't find anything.
Thanks for the answer.

Hi @TPigeon ,
Hope you are doing well.
Please confirm to the team that copying tag from demand to project was never supported. If she has seen it, may be due to some custom code..
Hope this helps.
Thank You!

Hello @Michael Jones - ,
I knew that tags is not a field so this can't be saved or retrieve. I have checked the tags are stored in 'label_list' table may be.
"a tag to a demand when it becomes a project will the tags still be associated with that record"
Same requirement is there for me also. Could you please help me how to achieve this.
Kind Regards,
