Kanban: how to effectively track tasks in projects

Kanban is a virtual project board. It helps you track all tasks performed within a project. Each column represents a specific stage of working on a task. This is convenient because you can create tasks at the desired stage and add a unique color, making the work more visible.

To start working with tasks in the Kanban view, open a workgroup or project in one of the following ways:

  • Go to the Tasks and Projects section and open the Projects tab.

  • Or navigate to the Workgroups section from the left menu.


Customize stages in Kanban view

Tasks are represented as cards on the Kanban board. By default, they are divided into three stages:

  1. New
  2. In progress
  3. Finished

All the members of your project (workgroup) can see the current tasks and their status here.

To edit a stage, hover the cursor over its name and click the pencil icon.

Then, you can change its color, rename it, or delete it.

To add a new stage, click the + button on the right. Specify the stage name and color.

To rearrange the columns, just drag them to a new position.


Manage tasks in Kanban view

You can create and organize tasks in Kanban. Click the Quick task button under the column name and specify the new task name.

Visualize the status change of your tasks by moving them between the stages.

Prioritize your tasks by dragging them to the top of the column.

In brief

  • Use the Kanban view to effectively manage tasks in projects and workgroups.

  • Configure custom stages for each project. All the members of your project will immediately see the changes.

  • Quickly add tasks using the corresponding option in the Kanban view.

  • Move tasks across the stages and watch the progress of your project.
