Task Kanban Board is available in the following application areas:

• Task Planning object (Gantt) in the project.

• Project Hub > Schedule tab.

• My Quick Update > My Tasks.

Lists/Columns in the Kanban board represent the status of a task (i.e. Not Started, In Progress, Completed, Deferred, and Ongoing).

Cards represent the tasks in the Gantt. Only child tasks/milestones and standalone tasks/milestones in the Gantt will have a card in the Kanban board.

Tasks are grouped by the parent/summary tasks which they are linked to.

Each card displays the following information on the task:

• Title.

• Progress bar – Will display % complete of the task, and the colour of the slider bar will represent the performance of the task.

• Timeframe (start and end dates).

• Responsible person.

• No. of attachments.

You can select the Kanban option in the toggle button in the Task Planning object, Schedule tab in the Project Hub, or in the My Quick Update > My Tasks areas to navigate to the Kanban Board.
