New Check Based on Selected Labels

You can assign labels to rules, and then utilize these labels when you create new checks. When you create a check based on selected labels, the rules included in the check are picked automatically based on the label(s) you select to be included in the check.

When you select a label for the check, all rules to which the label has been assigned are included in the check. If you select multiple labels, a rule needs to have all the selected labels that have been selected to be added to the check. The rule may also have other labels assigned to it as well. For example: if you select the labels Architecture and Germany, any rule that has (at least) both these labels is added to the check.
