Account labels are created by manager accounts and assigned to sub-manager accounts or individual Google Ads accounts to help create meaningful groupings of client accounts.
Labels allow you to organize your campaigns, ad groups, ads, and keywords into groups. Labels are customizable, and you can change them around at any time.
This article shows you how to create, remove, and edit account labels. For more background about account labels and how they differ from campaign labels, read About labels in manager accounts.
