Please show us with a screenshot how you defined the new column.
Do you have a file that shows the right data in

Thank you for the screenshot - unfortunately, I do not quite see where a problem might be: all the data from the file list also appears in the tag panel.
Which column did you add?
BTW: the screenshot does not show the extended tags which you could display with Alt-T.

There is no automatism to create columns from the tag data.
There is also no automatism to rename files.
You would have to do that manually.
See the documentation on how to customize the file list

> Customization options for the File List, including adding, removing, hiding, and rearranging of columns. Mp3tag is the universal Tag Editor.

I still don't understand how to do it, is there a video explaining it I've curated the column already but trying to figure out how to write it to the file

Use Convert\>Tag-Filename and e.g.
Format string: %artist% \_ %title% \_ %gerne% \_ %year%

You write a custom field with the name `LABEL` and the content "White Label".
Both are written into your mp3 file as you can see in Alt + T in Mp3tag.
But I don't think that Serato or Rekordbox read this custom (= non standard) field and its content.
You can try it the other way:
Write your content "White Label" in Serato or Rekordbox and save it.
Then you can open the same mp3 file in Mp3tag and press Alt + T again on this file.
This way you can see in what field name your 3rd party software writes your information.
Use the same field in Mp3tag to fill your label information for example.
In an old [thread from 2008](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/label-tag-hinzufugen/7453/9) someone says that the field name you are looking for could be PUBLISHER. You would have to try, if this still works for your current Serato version.

When I also check properties details in Windows genre and year show up, which I added to the column that was already there, same in the DJ software, I do see a #, which I don't know where that came from.

The only ones that seems to work are the default columns that were already there.

Please enter "White Label" in the field "Label" in the software from your black screenshot (Rekordbox?) and save it.
Then load this mp3 song in Mp3tag and press Alt + T.
Please show us a screenshot from this metadata window.
BTW: Don't rely on the 'Details' option in Windows File Explorer.
The Windows File Explorer only offers a very limited support for metadata.

Your screenshot confirms what @LyricsLover suggested earlier. Use the PUBLISHER field in mp3tag. You may still need to find a way to update this information in Rekordbox or Serato afterwards.

About _file renaming_... I haven't tried using mp3tag for that purposes, but many years i've used [ReNamer Pro by den4b](https://www.den4b.com/products/renamer) for that. That's even support pascal scripts...!!! Really **powerful tool**. Maybe it will help someone.

What could the "it" mean in this context?
