Kanban View
This post is also available in: Deutsch
Kanban is a visual method of workflow management. The main idea behind it is to limit work in progress, focus on completing tasks before starting new ones, and continuously improve processes. The Kanban view is used to organize and visualize cards. The Kanban board is the first space view you see in KanBo.
When creating a new space, you begin with the default Kanban view. This view divides the space into columns, which are card status groupings. That space view consists of groupings representing different workflow stages, while cards represent tasks that need to be done. Statuses indicate the progress of completing a card.
Example: The Green Week space with the Kanban view.
Groupings are much more than card statuses. Each of them has a different meaning and defines a specific category of cards. What they represent depends on the type of card grouping you choose. For example, you can change the card grouping option from statuses to users, due dates, or even create a new type with custom fields.
