Provide a Sequence ID to make entity counts > 1000 manageable within accounts

Summary

When you have more than 1000 entities in an account you need to use filters to select smaller populations of entities in order to run the report. We should provide a "sequence id" that can be added as a tag to entities in an account to break up those entities into populations so the report is more efficient.

Desired Behaviour

Add a tag that indexes the entities in an account into cohorts - of max 400 or 500 or so

Possible Solution

Introduce _tagWriting function

Additional context

Need to consider removing this tag should it be encountered in subsequent runs, or give the user the ability to delete the tag
