How to Create a Kanban Board
To create a Kanban board, provide the following details
Title | Name of your Kanban Board |
Hierarchy Level | Select the Item type, e.g., Epic, Features or others |
Filter | Without a backlog filter selection, you would need to add cards individually. It is better to select a filter for your Kanban board. |
How to Customize Kanban Board
Kanban board has two types of Columns
Column Type | Description |
Backlog | It acts as a placeholder for all the cards yet to move to the columns. It has its search and group by options. This is a default column, and it is not possible to rename it. |
Kanban Board Columns | Board columns with customization options |
Default Board Configuration
There are three default columns and no mapping options are selected for each. Thus, upon creating a new Kanban board, all the cards are stacked in the Backlog. To move your columns, drag them individually or map the column to a particular status.
To modify the default configuration, click the "Edit Board" option.
Example Configuration with two sub-columns
Note: The UI of this board configuration will be updated very soon. Contact support@kendis.io for further details.
