Labelling the elements in Revit and exporting the labels to IFC

Hi, 

 

I have a Revit model of a building, which I am trying to convert into IFC. In the IFC, I want to identify somehow which items in the Revit model have what properties. I know IfcGUID can be used for that, but it is a very complex sort of notation. Therefore, I want to label the elements somehow, such that the labels are linked to the elements in IFC. The labels I intend are nothing but simple pieces of string that can act as a unique identifier for that particular element. 

 

Is there a way to add labels to the elements so that they are linked to the elements when exported to IFC?

 

Best Regards,

Ajay
